Salary: £35,000 - 75,000 per year

Requirements:

• Three to five years of professional experience in data analysis, business intelligence, analytics engineering or a closely related role in an enterprise environment.
• Strong hands‑on Power BI development experience, including report design, DAX, Power Query, semantic models and performance‑aware modelling.
• Experience designing reports that are visually clear, useful and appropriate for the audience, rather than simply technically correct.
• Strong SQL skills and the ability to investigate data, validate results and identify data‑quality issues.
• Practical experience with Microsoft Fabric, or demonstrable experience with modern Microsoft data platforms and a strong appetite to develop deeper Fabric expertise.
• Understanding of metadata, documentation, reusable measures, calculation groups and the requirements for AI‑ready semantic models.
• Experience with Git, source control and CI/CD, deployment pipelines or equivalent release‑management practices.
• Experience gathering requirements, scoping work, managing change and explaining analytical outputs to business users.
• Evidence of using AI development tools regularly and responsibly to improve personal productivity and delivery quality.
• Experience with Fabric lakehouses, warehouses, pipelines, Dataflows Gen2, Direct Lake or Fabric semantic models.
• Experience with calculation groups, Tabular Editor, deployment pipelines or Power BI APIs.
• Experience designing models for Power BI Copilot, Fabric Data Agents or other natural‑language analytics solutions.
• Experience with Microsoft Purview, data lineage, certification, metric ownership or data‑quality frameworks.
• Python experience for analysis, automation, API integration or data engineering.
• Experience using Visual Studio Code, GitHub or Azure DevOps in an analytics development workflow.
• Experience in property, sales, marketing, finance or another operationally complex environment.
• You take ownership and can work independently while knowing when to seek input.
• You care about the purpose behind the report and the decision it is intended to support.
• You combine speed with disciplined testing, documentation and release practices.
• You communicate simply and directly with technical and non‑technical audiences.
• You are curious about new Power BI, Fabric and AI capabilities and test them pragmatically.
• You are comfortable receiving feedback, iterating quickly and improving your work.
• You treat data quality, metadata and governance as part of development rather than as an afterthought.

Responsibilities:

• Own the development, maintenance and continuous improvement of a significant Power BI reporting estate.
• Scope requirements with stakeholders and translate business questions into clear analytical and technical solutions.
• Design and build attractive, intuitive and performant reports for executives, managers and operational users.
• Develop robust semantic models using dimensional modelling, clear relationships, reusable measures and appropriate calculation groups.
• Use DAX and Power Query confidently, applying sound modelling and performance principles.
• Understand the data and business purpose behind every report you own, and explain its outputs and limitations to end users.
• Release changes safely, manage feedback and make fast, controlled updates as business needs evolve.
• Contribute to the migration of existing reporting and analytical models into Microsoft Fabric.
• Use relevant Fabric capabilities to create reliable, maintainable and analyst‑friendly data products.
• Make semantic models ready for AI and natural‑language experiences through high‑quality metadata and documentation.
• Write and maintain clear descriptions for tables, columns, measures, calculation groups and business definitions.
• Design models that can support governed Data Agents and other agentic systems without compromising trust, security or performance.
• Keep up to date with the latest Power BI and Fabric features, assessing where new capabilities can improve the teams work.
• Help identify and deliver practical AI and automation opportunities that reduce manual effort or improve decision‑making.
• Work directly with marketing, sales, lettings, finance, technology and other business teams to understand needs and priorities.
• Train users and improve confidence, adoption and data literacy across the business.
• Investigate data issues, explain root causes and implement sustainable fixes.
• Monitor report performance, refresh reliability, data quality and platform usage.
• Apply consistent standards for report design, KPI definitions, documentation, governance and development practices.
• Use Git, source control and CI/CD or deployment workflows to support safe and repeatable development across environments.
• Write, understand and improve SQL used to prepare, validate and analyse data.
• Use AI development tools such as Codex as part of daily development practice to improve speed, quality and repeatability.
• Use AI tools responsibly to update queries, develop transformations, investigate errors, create documentation and automate repeatable tasks.
• Validate AI‑generated code and outputs rather than accepting them without review.
• Use Python for data analysis, automation or integration where it adds value.
