Your work will influence strategic decision-making, improve fleet performance, and support the development of a data-driven operating model for the future of defence support services.

• Design automated reporting processes, workflows and business intelligence tools to improve efficiency and data quality.
• Support predictive analytics and continuous improvement initiatives to optimise performance and decision-making.

• Strong knowledge of business intelligence and data visualisation tools, particularly Power BI.
• Experience with SQL, data modelling and data management principles.
• Knowledge of advanced analytics, predictive modelling, statistical analysis or machine learning techniques.

• Degree-level qualification in Business Analytics, Data Science, Information Systems, Computer Science, Mathematics, Statistics, or a related discipline.
