About the position

Have you built a dashboard that someone actually trusted enough to make a decision from?

We're headhunting Data Analysts who know that a good dashboard is only as good as the data behind it.

This isn't a role where you pull a report, make the charts look nice, and move on.

You'll be taking messy data and real business questions all the way through to something useful; understanding the problem, modelling the data, validating the numbers, and building reporting that people rely on.

Think:

  • SQL - investigating data, finding patterns and answering business questions
  • dbt - building reliable, reusable data transformations
  • Tableau - dashboards, recurring reports and actionable insights
  • Data modelling, quality and validation - knowing where the numbers came from and why they're right
  • Ad-hoc analysis - finding answers when the business needs them
The sweet spot? 2-3+ years in data analytics or data science, with a completed bachelor's degree in a relevant quantitative field.

Experience in financial services, consulting or high-growth tech is a big plus.
