About the position
ENVIRONMENT:
Own the end-to-end design and development of sophisticated Power BI dashboards and management information solutions for the Licence to Operate programme. This is not simply a dashboard-building role. The individual must be sufficiently senior to engage stakeholders, interrogate requirements, understand complex risk and control data, integrate multiple data sources and independently translate business questions into high-quality analytical products.
DUTIES:
- Design, build and deploy sophisticated Power BI dashboards and reporting solutions.
- Work with business, risk, technology and control stakeholders to understand the underlying questions dashboards need to answer.
- Analyse and integrate data from multiple systems and data sources, including situations where the data landscape may initially be unclear.
- Understand the underlying controls, metrics, KRIs, KPIs, thresholds, risk indicators and management actions represented by the data.
- Develop appropriate data models, semantic layers, measures and calculations required to support the dashboards.
- Design reporting that enables users to move from enterprise-level risk visibility through to detailed underlying drivers and exceptions.
- Build tailored dashboard experiences for different audiences, including:
- Executive leadership
- Management
- Risk and control owners
- Technical and operational teams
- Enable drill-down, trend analysis, exception reporting, root-cause exploration and proactive identification of emerging risks.
- Ensure dashboards are performant, scalable, intuitive and maintainable.
- Establish appropriate Power BI development standards, documentation and governance.
- Work closely with the UI/UX Designer to ensure dashboards are both analytically rigorous and exceptionally easy to consume.
- Provide documentation and knowledge transfer to the client’s internal teams.
REQUIREMENTS:
- We are looking for a highly experienced Power BI specialist, ideally with 8+ years of BI/data analytics experience and significant enterprise Power BI delivery experience.
Strong candidates should demonstrate:
- Advanced Power BI development expertise.
- Expert-level DAX.
- Strong Power Query / M capability.
- Advanced data modelling and dimensional modelling.
- Experience integrating multiple and heterogeneous data sources.
- Strong SQL capability.
- Experience with Power BI Service, workspaces, deployment, security and governance.
- Strong understanding of dashboard performance optimisation.
- Experience designing executive and management dashboards, rather than purely operational reports.
- Ability to work independently with senior stakeholders and ambiguous requirements.
- Strong analytical capability and ability to understand what the data is actually communicating.
Highly Desirable:
- Experience within a large bank or financial services environment, particularly in one or more of:
- Technology risk, operational risk, controls, compliance, regulatory reporting, technology operations, IT service management, resilience or Licence to Operate environments.
