Job description

Are you passionate about data storytelling and excited by the opportunity to shape how insight is delivered in a modern NHS data environment? We’re recruiting a Business Intelligence Developer on a 12‑month fixed‑term basis to cover maternity leave. This role is ideal for someone who enjoys turning data into accessible, visually compelling outputs aligned to clinical, operational and strategic priorities.

Role Overview

You’ll lead the development of high‑quality dashboards and reusable data models that support data‑informed decision‑making across the Trust. This is a hands‑on Power BI development role focused on both designing effective data models and delivering impactful visualisations. You’ll help shape how datasets are prepared and structured for reporting, working alongside engineers, analysts and service teams to produce outputs that are trusted, consistent and meaningful. The role is primarily remote, but occasional in‑person meetings and team activities are expected throughout the year. Applicants should be based within a reasonable distance of our Trust sites to enable occasional travel for in‑person meetings or team activities, as required.

Key Responsibilities

• Design, build and maintain Power BI data models and reporting outputs using curated, governed datasets.
• Create clear, interactive dashboards that highlight trends, performance and variation.
• Act as a subject‑matter resource in Power BI, supporting colleagues with design and functionality queries.
• Gather and interpret user requirements to ensure reports meet operational and strategic needs.
• Identify emerging trends or performance issues using defined KPIs and metrics.
• Work with data engineers and data scientists to align reporting with trusted data sources and models.
• Support the migration of legacy reports into consistent, reusable formats.
• Apply Agile and DevOps‑aligned delivery practices using Azure DevOps and Jira.
• Test, validate and document reports to ensure reliability and transparency.
• Design reports with appropriate data access, performance and usability in mind, ensuring outputs are secure, scalable and aligned with organisational standards.
• Contribute to team knowledge sharing, peer review and small‑scale process improvements.

Communication and Development

• Proactively engage with team members and stakeholders to gather data requirements and support effective working relationships.
• Attend internal and external meetings on behalf of the team where appropriate.
• Promote and communicate BI developments with other team members.
• Maintain own professional development through participation in appraisal and KSF processes.
• Keep up to date with Power BI releases, updates and emerging technologies relevant to the business intelligence field.

Governance and Risk

• Observe and maintain strict confidentiality in line with the Data Protection Act.
• Adhere to Trust Information Governance, Information Security policies and risk assessment processes.
• Follow infection control policies, mandatory training and relevant audits.
• Participate in clinical and safeguarding audits and emergency preparedness processes as required.
