Job description

emagine is a high-end professional services consultancy and solutions firm Specialising in providing business and technology services to the financial services sector, we power progress, solve challenges and deliver real results through tailored high-end consulting services and solutions.

We have created a culture of openness and integrity by building genuine and strong relationships and partnerships, enabling us to be uncompromising in our dedication in delivering the optimal service for our clients. Our commitment is not just towards our clients but we aim to foster a positive and equitable working environment with our consultants and colleagues which stems from our core values: Confident, Dedicated, Responsible, Genuine.

We are seeking a Business Manager/ Insights Analyst to provide hands‑on analytical and business management support to the central team by turning messy/ambiguous inputs into clear insights, trackers, and executive‑ready PowerPoint narratives. The role is intended to provide additional capacity for “getting things done” across day‑to‑day team priorities.

Key Responsibilities

• Analyse large datasets (often complex spreadsheets and multiple sources) to identify trends, risks, gaps, and opportunities.
• Build and maintain trackers, dashboards and KPI reporting to support transformation, compliance/training tracking, and operational performance (as required).
• Translate ambiguous problem statements into structured analysis, clear outputs, and recommended actions.
• Produce executive‑ready PowerPoint packs: storyline, charts, commentary, and recommendations for senior stakeholders.
• Provide business management / PMO‑style support, including portfolio views, progress reporting, actions and RAID‑style tracking.
• Support general team activity and ad‑hoc requests (including providing support where needed).
• Work independently with confidential/sensitive information and apply appropriate judgement.
• Collaborate closely with the wider team, taking ownership of allocated tasks and following through to completion.

Key Requirements

• Advanced Excel capability (comfortable with large, messy datasets; building robust trackers; strong attention to detail).
• Strong PowerPoint capability (can create senior‑facing narratives and materials, not just reporting slides).
• Demonstrated ability to generate insight from data (connecting dots, identifying drivers, highlighting implications).
• Comfortable working in a complex, matrixed organisation with multiple stakeholders.
• Strong collaboration skills and a proactive, “pitch in and fix it” mindset (happy to do the grunt work when needed).
• Familiarity with AI productivity tools (e.g., Copilot, Claude or similar) and how to use them responsibly to accelerate analysis and drafting.

Nice to Have

• Experience in business management / PMO / organisational transformation / project portfolio environments.
• Financial services experience (ideally within a multinational bank).
