AUCKLAND, Today: Leading customer intelligence agency Perceptive has appointed Sho Pogoni as data science team lead after “enticing him back” from Westpac NZ.
The senior appointment comes after a solid first quarter for Grey Lynn-based Perceptive, which has recently welcomed several new clients across various sectors, including government, property, and technology.
Pogoni will head up the data science team enabling and unlocking data science as a supplementary service for other teams (CX and Research) and as a standalone service for bespoke client projects.
Pogoni said: “Although the people and place are familiar, this role and the team’s structure are entirely different – and what attracted me back to Perceptive.
