Job description

About iO‑Sphere

Our coaching team is exceptional – former data scientists, analytics directors, engineers, and AI practitioners who decided to do something different with their expertise. You’d be joining a high‑performing, tight‑knit group that takes ownership, holds itself to a high bar, and has a lot of fun doing it. We value people who take responsibility, move fast, and care deeply about learner outcomes. If you thrive with autonomy and want your ideas to actually get implemented, you’ll fit right in.

We’re rated 4.9 stars on Google – because of our coaches. You’ll watch people transform from uncertain to confident, from struggling with Excel to presenting insights to their leadership team. That feel never gets old. We’re also at an inflection point: 700+ learners trained, real momentum, and 2026 is when we scale – new programmes, new products, bigger team. Join something early and grow with it; this is the time.

What You’ll Do

Coach working professionals through our Data Analytics programme. These are ambitious people who want to become the go‑to analyst in their organisation – turning data into insights that drive smarter decisions. The programme covers Excel, SQL, Python, and Power BI, but it’s not just about the tools. You’ll also coach on analytical problem‑solving, critical thinking, communicating insights, and building business acumen – the skills that separate good analysts from great ones.

Day‑to‑Day Responsibilities

• Delivering engaging, practical coaching sessions on analytics tools and thinking
• Guiding learners through PRISM‑based projects using real, messy data
• Providing clear, constructive feedback on dashboards, SQL, analysis, and how they communicate their findings
• Coaching on the soft stuff too – critical thinking, stakeholder communication, professional presence
• Running 1:1 coaching conversations that build confidence and momentum
• Tracking learner progress and intervening early when someone’s struggling
• Maintaining accurate records and evidence (we’re regulated, so organisation matters)
• Collaborating with the wider coaching and quality teams

Shape the Programme and Grow With Us

These programmes are new and evolving. You’ll have real input into quality and execution – if you see a better way to teach something, we want to hear it and we’ll actually implement it. Work across different programme types. Beyond skills‑levy programmes, you’ll also coach on our applied diplomas and commercial training – different learner types, fresh challenges, and variety you won’t get elsewhere. We’re launching new products throughout 2026, and there’s real opportunity to contribute beyond your core coaching role.

Why This Isn't Like Other Coaching Jobs

• Tech‑first – less admin, more coaching. Our systems handle the paperwork so you spend time with learners, not drowning in compliance busywork.
• High‑quality product. You’re delivering something well‑designed that actually works – not apologising for broken curriculum.
• Room to build. Programmes are fresh. You’re not just following a script; you’re helping make it better.
• Hands‑on analytics experience: SQL, Excel, data visualisation (Power BI preferred) – applied to real business problems.
• Track record of turning data into insights that drove decisions.
• Strong analytical thinking and problem‑solving skills.
• Ability to explain analytics concepts to non‑technical people without dumbing them down.
• You genuinely enjoy working with people and get energy from helping others succeed.
