My position in my company on paper is to provide KPIs, analysis, and improve processes/files within the company.
However l am doing much more as part of the executive team where we regularly discuss "this doesn't leave the room" material.

I get paid average for a Data Analyst, but I know that the rest of the executive team is making 40-150% more than me.

I also know that my skill set can land jobs making 30-40% more than I do now.

How do I go about asking for a salary in line with execs?

Get promoted to senior data analyst

like

In corporate, yes. Career leveling is standardized. Senior means years experience, not relative skill. Though those often align.

Very generally within the same title for individual contributors....
Jr/Associate -> no seniority -> Senior -> Principal

In place? Talk to your manager. Realistically, you'll need a big promotion, like ZS1 said. Also realistically, HR will cap the associated raise even if you get the promotion. 30-40% raises don't happen unless someone is hired from "outside" (e.g. contractor to FTE conversations).

Do NOT threaten with an external offer. It's been known to work for immediate results, but this is a good way to get managed out afterwards or just never get promoted again. You mark yourself as a liability, and definitely won't have as strong references later if need be.

If you actually want the pay and none of the scandal, you'll need to get a job somewhere else. Raises (wages) lag market rate by design.

At that size, yeah, you can pretty much ask for anything you want. Your ask doesn't seem totally unreasonable. Though I do wonder if you have any P&L stake of your own, which is what makes an exec.

Execs are defined by a combination of authority and skin in the game, not by who's in meetings. While you measure others' stuff and have plenty of indirect authority, the skin in the game isn't the same. The usual perspective is that analysts need to measure stuff right and present info, but are not accountable for what happens based on that info. You help define strategy, but if things go south, you measured all you could and it's not your fault, right? You don't own each of the functions you're supporting.

But maybe you can partly. Carve out some kind of exec ops position for yourself. Convince the CEO that your stuff is important enough that you need skin in the game for your recommendations. Then the pay could reflect that. Some kinda chief insights officer or something, if you're senior enough to not get laughed at for that.

Or just ask for a raise to match the people you work with. But odds are good you'll run into they have more at stake argument anyway.

Results from asking will completely come down to the nitty gritty of your situation, conversation, and relationships, ofc. Just brainstorming.
