Senior Manager, International Data Technology

The Senior Manager of International Data & Reporting is a full-time leadership role responsible for defining and delivering data and reporting initiatives across Papa John’s International (PJI) and its franchisees. Reporting to the Senior Director, International Store Technology, Data & Architecture, this role is critical to enhancing profit, mitigating risk, and improving operational efficiency. The position will drive the data and reporting strategy, evaluate emerging technologies, and ensure adherence to PJI brand standards.

To succeed, you’ll be an outstanding communicator, capable of building powerful, symbiotic relationships with colleagues, vendors, and franchisees. You’ll be a strong project manager with a delivery mindset, and you’ll be highly numerate and able to justify your decisions commercially. You’ll have the ability to ‘join the dots’ across multiple perspectives and initiatives.

Personally – you’ll be outgoing, fun, inventive, resilient, and biased to action. You’ll be plain speaking, brave and honest with no time for office politics. You’ll be intelligent (practically and emotionally), relentlessly curious, and addicted to learning new things or finding a better way.

We are an outcome-focused team that expects and offers a great deal of flexibility in terms of how, where and when work gets done. We value face-to-face interaction and anticipate that team members will meet in the Restaurant Support Centers on an as needed basis.
