Job Summary:
JOB DESCRIPTION – Lead Analyst - Technology Strategy, Planning & Risk
Location: Chicago, California, New York, Washington
Division: Ticketmaster NA
Line Manager: Senior Director - Technology Strategy
Contract Terms: Full Time
THE TEAM
The Technology Strategy, Planning & Risk team sits at the center of how Ticketmaster’s engineering organization makes decisions. We’re a team of roughly ten people embedded within tech, and our job is to make sure the right investments get made, the right problems get prioritized, and the rest of the business understands what tech is doing and why it matters. We partner closely with Finance, HR, and senior tech leadership to turn complex operational realities into clear strategic direction.
This is a team that rewards curiosity. If you’re the kind of person who can’t look at a number without wondering what’s driving it, you’ll fit in.
THE JOB
We’re looking for a Lead Analyst who can operate at the intersection of financial rigor and strategic thinking — someone who’s equally comfortable building a capacity model and presenting its implications to a Senior Director or engineering lead.
Day to day, you’ll support the tech division P&L, manage KPI and OKR tracking for our CTO’s monthly reporting, and lead capacity planning across engineering teams. But the more interesting work is what sits underneath that: diagnosing why a division is off-plan, modeling the trade-offs of a platform modernization, or figuring out how to structure a team differently to unlock more value.
Over the next year, a meaningful part of this role will be helping drive our team’s adoption of AI — identifying the right tooling, building the internal case for it, and working across stakeholders to make it stick. That’s not a side project; it’s a priority.
You’ll report to a Senior Director and work across a wide range of stakeholders — engineering leads, Finance, HR, and PMO. You won’t always be the loudest voice in the room, but your analysis will shape what decisions get made.
WHAT YOU WILL BE DOING
WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW (or TECHNICAL SKILLS)
YOU (BEHAVIOURAL SKILLS)
This isn’t a pure reporting role, and it isn’t a role where analysis sits in a deck and waits to be acted on. The work has real stakes and real visibility. If you want a defined lane, this probably isn’t it. If you want to build something and see it matter, it might be exactly right.
BENEFITS & PERKS
Through our ‘Taking Care of Our Own’ program, we provide benefits across six key pillars:
HEALTH: Medical, vision, dental and mental health benefits for you and your family, with access to a health care concierge, and Flexible or Health Savings Accounts (FSA or HSA)
YOURSELF: Free concert tickets, generous paid time off including paid holidays, sick time, and personal days
WEALTH: 401(k) program with company match, stock reimbursement program
FAMILY: New parent programs including caregiver leave, plus fertility, adoption, foster, or surrogacy support
CAREER: Career and skill development programs with School of Live, tuition reimbursement, and student loan repayment
OTHERS: Volunteer time off, crowdfunding match
