The division is headed by Emma Bromet  who joined the company last April from Oliver Wyman, where she led the consumer and industrial practice.

Eliiza's data and analytics division has already taken on 16 people, and the team is expected to double in size by the end of the financial year.

Bromet is looking to hire consultants from a variety of backgrounds, as diversity in hiring a major focus for the business.

"We are a very diverse team including over 50% women. We are looking to hire people with great relationship and strategy skills who will be excellent problem solvers for our clients," she says.

Eliiza's clients include Kmart, ANZ, Belong and IAG.

"There are a group of companies who know that data is a strategic asset but are under-invested and need help operationalising it. There are others who are more advanced in their thinking but need help in a particular area.The division has been set up to bridge the gap between data science and business," said Bromet.

"We don't just send our clients two data analysts to solve a problem. We're interested in the human aspect of data. You can replace tools and technology, but if you can't win hearts and minds, nothing will change. We identify the problem and help organisations build a data roadmap," she adds.

Eliiza is part of Mantel Group, which currently has around 150 open roles across its seven brands and is actively recruiting across ANZ.
