Job description

Role Overview

Do you enjoy working at the intersection of business and data? At BDR Thermea Group, you’ll help shape how data is used across the organisation – translating business challenges into meaningful insights that support smarter decisions and a more sustainable future.

Your role: As a Business Analyst in our Enterprise Data Analytics team, you work closely with stakeholders across Europe to understand needs, set priorities, and turn them into effective data and reporting solutions. You connect business context with data to ensure the right insights drive decision‑making. You focus on the “why” behind the data – taking ownership of specific domains and acting as a trusted partner who helps teams make smarter use of their data. This is a mid‑level position, ideally suited to someone who already has experience translating business needs into data solutions and is ready to take ownership of projects and business domains.

You don't need to have all the answers from day one, but you should be comfortable engaging stakeholders, driving initiatives forward, and growing into a trusted business partner.

Your role is hybrid, based in Apeldoorn, the Netherlands. We value flexibility and collaboration: you're encouraged to spend at least two days per week in our office while enjoying the support for your home office set‑up and travel costs.
