About the role:

As a Business Analyst with a focus on data engagement, your role will be to bring the data to life with business. You'll spend time with teams across LondonEnergy (LEL), helping them understand what data is available, how to use it effectively, and how it can shape better decision making.

Requirements Gathering & Report Design

• Facilitate discovery sessions to gather and document reporting needs, translating them into clear specifications for reports, dashboards, and data improvements.
• Collaborate with the Data and Reporting Manager and technical teams to ensure reports are standardized, intuitive, and actionable.

Data Literacy & Insights Support

• Support teams in interpreting reports and drawing insights to inform their work.
• Where necessary, help teams troubleshoot or explore new ways of slicing their data.

Continuous Improvement

Help to shape the roadmap for future training and support:

• Contribute to monitoring and evaluation of how data tools are being used and where improvements are needed.
• Identify and escalate recurring data quality or process issues to the Data and Reporting Manager.

Requirements

The ideal candidate will possess the following skills:

• Honours Degree in a STEM subject.
• Proficient in data analysis, cleansing, manipulation, and visualization using tools like Power BI and Excel.
• Experience in business analysis or data engagement roles, especially in change-heavy environments.
• Strong interpersonal skills with the ability to communicate technical concepts clearly to non-technical audiences.
• Skilled in gathering requirements and translating them into actionable insights and reports.
• Comfortable in low data maturity settings and experienced in coaching, training, and guiding others through change.
• Knowledge of data governance, quality issues, and change management principles.
