Functieomschrijving

At Dataroots, leadership isn't about hierarchy. It's about direction. As a Business Unit Lead, you'll grow a team of 40+ professionals from the ground up, set the vision for where your competence goes next, and build something people genuinely want to be part of. We're serious about impact, relaxed about ego, and a little bit stubborn about doing things well. If you can hold all three, you'll fit right in.

Dataroots is part of the Talan Group, which gives us the scale to grow nationally and internationally while keeping the dynamic, entrepreneurial culture that got us here.

  • Vision & Direction: Set the strategic direction for your competence in a space that moves fast. Data, analytics, and AI don't stand still, and neither should your unit's positioning.
  • Team Leadership & Growth: Lead and scale a team of 40+ people. Coach, develop, and create a culture where people do great work, keep learning, and actually enjoy the ride.
  • P&L Ownership: Own your unit's operating revenue and margin. Manage your training and team-building budget like it's your own business, because it is.
  • Delivery Excellence: Oversee engagements end to end. Stay hands-on where it matters: you are ready to jump in with projects when your team needs you.
  • Business Growth: Partner with our BizDev team to qualify leads, shape strategy, and grow key accounts for existing services and the new ones you'll help define. You'll also play an active role in presales: joining client conversations early, helping shape proposals, and translating opportunities into winning offers.

We are looking for a hands-on leader with an entrepreneurial mindset and a passion for growth:

  • Experience leading a team and owning a P&L; consulting or professional services background preferred
  • 8+ years overall, including 3+ years in a leadership role
  • Strong grounding in data, analytics, or AI: enough to earn credibility, not necessarily deep technical mastery
  • Someone who can hold a room and hold a vision, commercially sharp and people-first
  • Fluent in Dutch/French and English

What We Offer

  • Real autonomy over hiring and portfolio direction: this is your unit to shape
  • A competitive salary package, mobility budget or company car, and high-end tech equipment
  • A generous training budget and access to cutting-edge tools
  • Regular team-building activities and knowledge-sharing events to keep the team connected as you grow
  • The heart of Dataroots beats in Leuven, where it all started back in 2016, while remote work and our Ghent office keep things flexible.
  • You’ll report to the Head of Operations, alongside your peer Unit Leads

What You’ll Find at Dataroots

Since 2016, we've helped clients get real value from data without losing the energy of a young company. Being part of Talan Group adds international reach and mobility, without losing what makes Dataroots, Dataroots.
