Data Analyst

As a Senior Information Analyst, you will take a lead role in the delivery of structured reporting such as balanced scorecards, and subsequent analysis and narrative to facilitate information based decision making in our business. You will also provide ad-hoc reporting and analysis on a per request basis., You will contribute to the creation of our reporting solution based on AWS QuickSights and Power BI including requirement gathering, design, development, testing and roll out of both the portal, and associated reports. You will identify requirements, KPI, measures and metrics and then work closely with our data engineering and testing teams to ensure that our data warehouse can support the provision of reporting and analysis. You will present your reports at various meetings, and provide narrative as to what the data tells us.

Alongside structured reporting, you will also take part in ad hoc analysis of our many datasets to support particular projects across the business. This will involve requirement gathering, identification of data, cleaning, delivery and interpretation of reports, including statistical analysis and machine learning. Previous experience with data mining methodologies such as CRISP-DM in R would be a definite advantage.

You will contribute to projects being managed by others as a team member, as well as lead your own and therefore will be able to lead projects from conception to delivery to a high standard, including task management, assignment and the provision of highlight reports on a weekly basis. Any experience of project management methodologies and experience with Jira, Microsoft DevOps or similar task management software is an advantage.
