• Turning one‑off requests into reusable self‑serve reporting tools
• Presenting findings clearly to non‑technical colleagues
• Working with stakeholders across the business to understand challenges
• Helping teams make better decisions through actionable insight

What you’ll bring

You might be studying now, recently graduated, or looking for your first break into analytics.

What matters most is your potential, so we’d love to hear from you if you are:

• Training and support in SQL, Python and Power BI
• Confidence working with senior stakeholders
• Dashboard design and reporting experience
• Private healthcare for you and your family
• Company pension scheme
• Flexible benefits (gym membership, tech, health assessments and more)
