Junior Data Analyst

Are you looking for a new challenge? Do you enjoy solving problems? If so, we have exciting opportunities within the newly formed Data Ops area!

Data Ops is split into three distinct areas – Data Assurance, Transform Hub, and the MI Hub.

The MI area within the Transform Hub is focused on strategic change, improvement and innovation initiatives that help us maximise the value from our data by providing better MI and BI services to the business.

The MI Hub provides centralised reporting, analytics and insight services to the business whilst endeavouring to reduce duplication, drive best practices, promote self-service and support other data teams.

As a Data Analyst, you will work within the MI Hub or the MI area within the Transform Hub and help support the wider business with their reporting and business intelligence needs. The role requires the development of end-to-end data solutions, from requirements gathering to insight, and provides exposure to many business areas.

In addition, Data Ops promotes flexible working, and we are committed to incorporating fun into the new smart working approach.
