What you'll bring:

• Demonstrated experience of using analytics to influence a commercial or strategic decision, such as evaluating risks and opportunities, deep dives into performance, assessing new propositions, and shaping business priorities.
• Proven track record of communicating complex analytical insight clearly and credibly, influencing stakeholders up to Head of Department level and articulating both the "so what" and the "now what".
• Advanced SQL user with experience querying and manipulating large‑scale customer, transactional, or behavioural datasets to deliver accurate, high‑impact analysis independently.
• Experience in using advanced analytical techniques (e.g. causal inference, statistical modelling, predictive methods) and a strong desire to continue expanding this toolkit with programming languages such as R and Python, including the effective use of AI‑enabled methods where they add value.
• Strong ability to partner with stakeholders to understand underlying business needs beyond the immediate question, challenge assumptions constructively, and shape analytical approach that will deliver measurable commercial value.
• Proven ability to independently scope, design and deliver complex analytical projects end‑to‑end, selecting appropriate methodologies, managing ambiguity, and pivoting approach where required to ensure timely, high‑quality, and actionable outcomes.
