010: Insights with Impact: How Podimo's Analytics Team Solve Big Business Problems w/ Jimmy Mogrip

Ready to turn your data team from a support function into a growth engine? In this More Than Numbers Live session, host Ollie Hughes sits down with Jimmy Mogrip, Global Director of Insights and Analytics at Podimo, to show how a sharp data strategy and analytics practice drives real business impact—no endless dashboards required. We unpack how Jimmy’s team uses BigQuery, Looker, DBT, Python and R to deliver deep insights, foster stakeholder alignment, and turn raw metrics into compelling data storytelling that moves the needle on subscriber growth. Along the way, Jimmy reveals Podimo’s three-legged data organization—AI, BI and dedicated Insights & Analytics—and explains how collaboration across product, content and growth squads ensures every recommendation ties back to North Star metrics. We learn why soft skills like hypothesis translation, clear communication and trust-building are as crucial as SQL, and why the best data pros always ask “That’s odd…” before jumping to conclusions.
