Job Description
Location:
New York, NY
Condé Nast is seeking a Director of Data & Insights Products to join our Data Product function and transform how our brands, Analytics teams, Product teams, Editorial teams, and business leaders access, understand, and use data. This leader will define and deliver the product strategy for the enterprise data consumption and enablement experience: the trusted data products, semantic and context layers, AI interfaces, business-intelligence capabilities, and operating practices that turn complex data into confident decisions.
This is a highly visible, stakeholder-centered role. The Director will work deeply with users across Condé Nast’s brands and global functions to understand how decisions are made today and how data and AI can be embedded into everyday workflows.

They will bring strong product judgment, organizational influence, and a practical point of view on how data can scale business decisions and AI practices at Condé Nast.

Partner with Product, Engineering, Analytics, and Governance to establish the semantic, metadata, lineage, and contextual-knowledge foundations required for accurate, explainable, and trusted AI outputs.
Lead product discovery and adoption for AI capabilities, including use-case selection, experience design, evaluation standards, guardrails, feedback loops, and integration into existing business workflows.
Continuously assess the evolving AI and analytics landscape and recommend where Condé Nast should build, buy, partner, consolidate, or retire capabilities.
