• Can work with complex datasets from multiple systems and sources.

• Has experience of data warehousing and Azure BI technologies.
• Can develop impactful reports and dashboards that support decision-making.
• Has strong analytical, problem-solving and stakeholder engagement skills.
• Is organised, proactive and able to manage competing priorities.

Why Join Us?

• A pension scheme with an average employer contribution of 20%.
• 32 days annual leave plus Bank Holidays.
• Investment in your wellbeing and professional development.
• Opportunity to work with a supportive and collaborative multidisciplinary team.
