A Day in the Life:

The Digital Intelligence Manager is accountable for managing the execution of initiatives within the Digital Intelligence franchisee success platform.

Support the delivery of a scalable, performance-led franchise model by improving data quality and visibility, enabling franchise-ready digital capabilities, and turning trusted data into practical insights that drive decision-making for franchisees and Hertz leadership.

This is a hands-on project delivery role requiring strong organisation, stakeholder coordination and execution discipline.
