Job description

Help build our BI capability from scratch - hands-on, in a small team where your work has real impact.

About us

We are the most influential, independent business body in Victoria with over 100,000 members. Our members choose us because we’re trusted experts in workplace relations, international trade, workplace health, safety and wellbeing, and policy development. Our team of 200 people thrive on putting our members first in everything we do - from providing exceptional customer service to advocating for their interests to all levels of government. The Victorian Chamber of Commerce and Industry works for the success of our members, business and Victoria.

About the role

This newly formed Data Analyst role offers the opportunity to shape how the Victorian Chamber uses data, as we invest in a business intelligence platform. You’ll explore data across the organisation to uncover patterns, challenge assumptions and turn complex findings into clear insights that help senior leaders understand what’s happening and why. Working across departments and alongside data engineers, you’ll go beyond producing reports to investigate business questions, strengthen confidence in reliable data and help teams use tools effectively and responsibly.

The role is full-time, but if it’s a strong match for your skills and you’re seeking part-time work, we strongly encourage you to apply and outline your preferred working arrangements in your cover letter.

About you

You’re curious, keen to be hands-on, proactive and commercially aware, with the ability to build strong relationships and turn imperfect organisational data into reliable, actionable insights. You’ll also bring:

• Strong analytical judgement: challenge assumptions, test data quality and distinguish evidence from interpretation.
• A tertiary qualification in data analytics, statistics, economics, business, information systems or a related discipline, or equivalent practical experience.
• Demonstrated ability to independently analyse complex or imperfect data, identify patterns and relationships, and translate findings into clear business insights and recommendations.
• Practical experience building Power BI dashboards and reports on Azure Data lake, both by hand and using AI, including data modelling, measures and effective visualisation.
• Experience with survey, customer, membership, marketing or behavioural data, including Qualtrics or similar platforms, is desirable.
• Strong written, verbal and visual communication skills to explain analysis clearly to senior management and non-technical stakeholders.
• Strong attention to detail.
• Demonstrated ability to manage competing requests, work across departments and deliver accurate work with limited supervision.
• Understanding of data privacy, security, governance and responsible access requirements.
