Data Sourcing & Quality

• Partner with IT to extract and integrate data from core operational systems.
• Validate, reconcile, and document data sources, transformations, and calculations.
• Ensure secure, compliant, and efficient access to source data across markets.
• Support data governance initiatives and improvements in data accuracy and consistency.
• Contribute to building a unified OLAP data model and evolving BI capabilities.

Process Improvement

• Analyse operational trends to identify inefficiencies, risks, and improvement opportunities.
• Provide data-driven insights to support continuous improvement programmes.
• Deliver clear, actionable analysis that shapes operational and strategic decisions.

Capability Building

• Help create reusable datasets, KPI standards, and BI building blocks for future scalability.
• Work closely with IT and business teams to enhance data accessibility and system performance.

Ideal Candidate Profile

Experience & Skills

• 3–5 years’ experience developing and supporting business reports/dashboards.

• Experience with documentation standards and version control.
• Excellent analytical skills with a strong focus on data accuracy and detail.
• Confident communicator, able to engage effectively across technical and business teams.
• Self-motivated, organised, and comfortable managing multiple priorities independently.

Useful Qualifications & Background

• Degree in Data Analytics, Computer Science, Information Systems, or similar.
• Knowledge of data modelling, OLAP concepts, and KPI frameworks.
• Understanding of data governance and data-quality best practices.
• Experience working with ERP, financial, or operational system data.
• Familiarity with fleet, leasing, mobility, or motor-related industries (an advantage).
• Exposure to scripting or automation tools (Python, VBA, Power Automate).
• Experience delivering practical BI solutions in complex, multi-market environments.
