Job description

Overview

Venesky-Brown is working with an Edinburgh based client to recruit a Data Analyst for an initial contract until the end of March 2026 paying £400/day inside IR35.

Assignment Description

As a Data Analyst, you will play a key role in developing insightful analysis and reporting that helps the organisation better understand and act on data from corporate services such as Finance and HR.

The primary focus of this role is on Power BI, designing, building, and maintaining reports and dashboards using data from Oracle Fusion HCM and ERP systems. While knowledge of Oracle Fusion (particularly OTBI and BI Publisher) is desirable, the essential and core requirement is hands‑on expertise in Power BI.

Over time, the programme will move toward a centralised MI & Analytics platform and a DataOps approach, meaning tools and data sources will continue to evolve.

Initial Focus of Work

• Developing and maintaining interactive Power BI reports and dashboards using data primarily sourced from Oracle Fusion HCM and ERP (Finance).
• Collaborating with business stakeholders to define, document, and prioritise reporting and analytics requirements.
• Supporting ongoing work to analyse and enhance existing management information for Finance and HR.
• Preparing and transforming data to support business cases and related initiatives.
• Where relevant, using Oracle reporting tools (OTBI & BI Publisher) to access, extract, and validate source data.
• Preparing and maintaining technical specifications and documentation for reports and data models.
• Supporting the design of data models and governance processes that will underpin the future MI & Analytics platform.

Key Responsibilities

• Develop and deliver end-to-end Power BI solutions from data extraction and transformation to publishing and optimising reports and dashboards.
• Apply tools and techniques for data analysis, modelling, and visualisation to translate complex datasets into meaningful insights.
• Identify, collect, clean, and integrate data from multiple systems (including Oracle Fusion and flat files).
• Work closely with stakeholders to ensure outputs are accurate, relevant, and presented in accessible, business‑friendly formats.
• Maintain a strong focus on data quality, consistency, and usability across reporting.
• Continue to enhance existing reporting capabilities.
