The Opportunity

At Root, we’re on a mission to improve the lives of our customers by offering better insurance solutions. We challenge ourselves to think differently in order to reimagine insurance: making it smarter, more equitable, and a better xperience for all. We strive to “unbreak” the archaic insurance industry by using data and technology in innovative ways. Analytics sits at the center of this vision: disciplined, research-driven, and relentlessly focused on building products and partnerships our customers love.

The Partnership Analytics team is critical to delivering on this mission. Partnerships are one of Root’s most important growth levers, enabling us to reach new customers through innovative distribution models. As Manager of Partnership Analytics, you will lead a high-performing team of analysts dedicated to evaluating, optimizing, and scaling our partner portfolio. You’ll work closely with leaders across Business Development, Partner Ops, Product, and Marketing—bringing clarity through data, challenging assumptions with disciplined analysis, and shaping strategy with compelling insights.

This role reports to the Director of Growth Analytics & Decision Science and offers the opportunity to directly influence Root’s growth trajectory, while building the frameworks and talent that make partnership analytics a durable competitive advantage.

Salary Range:  $155,000 - $165,000 (Bonus and LTI eligible)
