Job description

A finance-literate senior analyst who turns large, multi-source data into clear financial and operational insight. Sitting within D&A and partnering the Strategy & Business Performance team, the role owns the analysis, dashboards and reporting that help internal and external clients — and Tag's own Finance and Operations leaders — understand performance and make better commercial decisions. The emphasis is on the “so what”: telling the story behind the numbers, with particular weight on financial outcomes.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

Financial & Commercial Analytics (primary focus)

• Build and maintain financial and operational reporting — revenue, cost, margin, utilisation and P&L views — for business partners and the Finance / Operations In-charge.
• Support FP&A activity: budgeting, forecasting, re-forecasting, and scenario / what-if modelling.
• Run variance analysis (actuals vs. budget, forecast and prior period) and explain the drivers in plain language.
• Translate commercial questions (“why did margin move?”) into structured analysis and clear recommendations for executive leaders and business partners.
• Analyse business requirements and translate them into insight through effective reporting and analysis.
• Apply statistical data analysis and build models that hold up to scrutiny.

Data Extraction & Integration

• Extract data from multiple sources — databases and spreadsheets — using Excel, DOMO and SQL.
• Develop and maintain ETL (Extract, Transform, Load) workflows to automate loading and keep Excel and DOMO in sync.

Data Transformation & Preparation

• Implement data cleansing, transformation and validation so outputs are accurate and consistent.
• Use DOMO's data-preparation and transformation capabilities to prepare data for analysis and reporting.

Data Visualisation & Storytelling

• Create compelling, insightful dashboards, charts and graphs in DOMO, Power BI, Tableau and Excel.
• Apply data-visualisation best practice so the “so what” is obvious; design self-service reporting solutions with stakeholders.
• Automate repetitive tasks and reporting using macros, VBA, Power Query, calculations and data models.
• Build reusable templates, standardised processes and components to lift BI productivity.

Data Governance, Quality & Security

• Maintain a high level of attention to detail around QA and cleansing of large data sets.
• Help implement data governance — access controls, user roles / permissions and data-security measures that protect integrity and confidentiality.

Collaboration, Stakeholder Management & Documentation

• Partner cross-functional teams — Finance, Operations, Project Managers, data engineers and department heads — to understand requirements and deliver effective BI.
• Present insights back to executive leaders / business partners to drive strategic improvement.
• Document data models, workflows and processes to support knowledge transfer and future enhancements.

Analysis: Statistical data analysis

• Experience with data management, cleansing, wrangling, integration and automation.

Finance systems: Exposure to ERP / financial-planning tools (e.g., SAP, Oracle / Hyperion, Anaplan, Workday Adaptive, NetSuite)

Nice-to-have

Domain: Creative-production / media-agency or shared-services finance environment
