The Driving Force Group of Companies is a network of world-class transportation and fleet management solutions companies. We're proud to be an Alberta success story that began in a rented office above a small service station. With a can-do attitude and people-first culture, we've grown into an industry leader, operating across Canada and the United States, spanning over 40 locations with over 600+ employees.
We are currently looking for a Data Analytics Manager at our Edmonton location.
What Moves You:
- You believe data is one of the most powerful levers a business can pull and you're driven by the challenge of making it actionable for every team that needs it.
- You're energized by growing people as much as growing systems. Coaching a talented team, clearing their path, and watching them deliver work they're proud of is just as rewarding to you as solving a hard technical problem.
- You thrive at the intersection of business and technology. You speak both languages fluently, and you genuinely love the moment a dashboard or insight changes the way a leader thinks about their business.
- You care deeply about doing the work right: clean models, clear documentation, reliable data, and analytics products that people trust and use.
- You're a natural bridge-builder who gets energized by cross-functional collaboration, translating operational complexity into clear analytical solutions that move the whole organization forward.
What You'll Do:
- Lead, mentor, and develop a high-performing Data Analytics team. Setting direction, championing growth, and creating an environment where technical talent does their best work.
- Own the end-to-end delivery of analytics products: from intake and prioritization through to production-grade dashboards, data models, and insights that drive real business decisions across Operations, Finance, Rental, Sales, and Leasing.
- Provide technical leadership across a modern analytics stack including Snowflake, DBT, AWS-based data pipelines, and AWS QuickSight — ensuring solutions are scalable, well-documented, and built to last.
- Partner directly with business leaders to transform operational challenges into clear analytics requirements, surfacing insights that improve visibility, accelerate decisions, and support The Driving Force Group's evolution into a data-driven organization.
- Establish and champion the standards for data quality, validation, governance, and change management that make analytics products something every stakeholder can rely on with confidence.
What You'll Bring:
- 7+ years of progressive experience in data analytics, business intelligence, or analytics engineering including 2 to 3 years leading teams or projects backed by a degree in Computer Science, Statistics, Business, Information Systems, or a related quantitative field.
- Advanced SQL proficiency and hands-on experience with modern cloud data warehousing, particularly Snowflake, alongside practical knowledge of DBT, dimensional modeling, and ELT/ETL best practices.
- Proven ability to deliver BI solutions using tools like AWS QuickSight, Power BI, or Tableau, and a strong track record of translating complex business requirements into trusted dashboards, KPIs, and reporting datasets.
- Demonstrated strength in stakeholder management and cross-functional collaboration with the communication skills to make technical concepts land clearly for both data teams and senior business leaders.
- A leadership approach rooted in accountability, coaching, and clarity with the ability to manage competing priorities, navigate ambiguity, and keep a team aligned, motivated, and delivering in a fast-moving business environment.
What We Offer:
- Competitive wages and flexible benefits.
- Our company RRSP matching program.
- 50% off rentals at any of our Driving Force locations.
- Learning and growth opportunities.
- Paid vacation and wellness time.
- We support your wellbeing through our Thrive wellness program.
- We 'Celebrate Great' through our rewards and recognition programs.
