This is a fantastic opportunity to play a key role in shaping how data supports pricing, profitability, and operational performance within a dynamic, product‑heavy environment.

• Lead analytical work across pricing, rebates, and margin performance, helping identify where value is gained or lost.
• Deliver actionable insights across sales, marketing, finance, and supply chain.
• Partner with ecommerce teams to improve visibility of digital performance and customer behaviour.
• Support key data integration and transformation projects within the Microsoft Fabric environment.
• Translate large datasets into clear, commercial recommendations for senior stakeholders.
• Contribute to key strategic initiatives, including price, volume, and mix analysis and margin optimisation.

About You

• Confident communicator who can engage across multiple business areas.
• Naturally curious, proactive, and adaptable in a fast‑changing environment.

Why Apply?

• Join a business at the heart of a major BI and data transformation.
• Blend commercial strategy with technical analytics.
• Work within a supportive team driving real change and visibility.
• Exposure to Microsoft's modern Fabric BI stack.
