The Company

We are partnering with a forward-thinking organisation in the transportation sector to recruit a Senior Performance Analysis Manager. This is a fantastic opportunity to join a nationally significant organisation that plays a central role in the UK’s transport infrastructure. With major transformation and investment underway across the sector, this role offers the chance to shape performance strategies that directly impact public services and operational delivery.

The Role

As Senior Performance Analysis Manager, you’ll join the Performance Measurement team, taking the lead on performance reporting, analytical insights, forecasting, and target-setting. Your analysis will help inform strategic and operational decisions across the business—ensuring efficiency, compliance, and improved service delivery.

• Providing insight that shapes key business decisions and contributes to regulatory and public accountability

Your Skills and Experience

We are looking for a commercially minded, data-driven individual with strong analytical skills and the ability to communicate complex insights to a broad audience.

• Proven experience in performance analysis, business intelligence, or a similar analytical role
• Strong forecasting, data interpretation, and reporting skills
• Excellent stakeholder management and communication skills
• Ability to simplify complex data into clear insights for non-technical audiences
• Experience in transport, infrastructure, or public sector environments
• Familiarity with transport or railway operations and performance frameworks
• Proficiency in tools such as Power BI, Excel, and forecasting software
• Understanding of regulatory and policy frameworks in transport or public service delivery

What You’ll Get

• Competitive salary of up to £75,000
• Full remote working (UK-based)
• Opportunity to work on nationally important projects with long-term impact
• Career development in a high-profile sector with complex and rewarding challenges
