Job description

Where raw data becomes the decision.

Hi! We're Smartsourcing, and we're hiring a full-time, onsite Business Analyst (Data & Reporting) to turn a rich, growing set of business data into clear insight and decision-ready reporting — building and running the group's Power BI reporting capability.

Where? JEG Tower, Archbishop Reyes, Corner Acacia St., Barangay Kamputhaw, Cebu City, 6000 Cebu

About the Role

As a Business Analyst (Data & Reporting), you'll design, build, and maintain Power BI dashboards from the ground up — data model and Power Query through to DAX measures — spanning finance, the rental book, broker origination, and asset performance. You'll build out and independently run the group's management reporting and deal intelligence, safeguard data quality before figures reach decision-makers, and document the logic so reporting stays repeatable and auditable. It's a proactive, self-directed role: you'll take a commercial question and run with it, surfacing new reporting on your own initiative rather than waiting for a brief.

Key Responsibilities

Management Reporting & Dashboard Development

Design, build, and maintain interactive Power BI dashboards and reports from scratch, giving management a live, drill-down view of KPIs and group performance.
Develop and maintain data models, Power Query transformations, and DAX measures for accurate, performant reporting.
Build out designs and wireframes into group consolidation reporting, the monthly board pack, and deal-performance analytics, with every figure reconciling back to source.
Streamline the monthly reporting cycle, reducing manual touchpoints and turnaround time.

Data Analysis & Commercial Insight

Interrogate company metrics — rental book value, LVR, repossession and arrears rates, payment friction, and broker/BDM performance — and translate them into clear commercial narrative for non-finance stakeholders.
Proactively identify trends, patterns, and insights, proposing new reporting rather than waiting for a brief.
Run ad-hoc analysis to answer specific commercial questions from the executive team (e.g. pricing, disposal channels, cohort performance, unit economics).

Data Extraction, SQL & Requirements Gathering

Use SQL to query and manipulate data from source systems to support comprehensive reporting.
Extract, transform, and load data from external sources into the reporting environment.
Gather reporting requirements from stakeholders, clarifying what's needed and how outputs should look before build.

Data Quality, Integrity & Governance

Monitor data quality and integrity, catching gaps and errors before numbers reach decision-makers.
Troubleshoot data issues with system owners and drive them to resolution.
Apply consistent, approved data definitions and treatment across reporting datasets.

Process Mapping, Documentation & Automation

Document data definitions, sources, and logic so reporting is repeatable and auditable.
Create process maps, flowcharts, and supporting documentation for reporting and data workflows.
Identify and automate manual, repetitive reporting tasks.

Stakeholder Collaboration & Delivery

Work hand-in-hand with the Power BI Analyst on report and dashboard projects, and collaborate with the Sales team and other functions on data initiatives.
Communicate directly and professionally with senior stakeholders, translating technical concepts for a non-technical leadership audience.
Prioritise and deliver across concurrent requests in a fast-paced environment, flagging blockers early.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) Readiness and Digital Enablement

Maintain baseline AI literacy and use approved AI tools responsibly, in line with company policies, data privacy, information security, and client confidentiality obligations.
Apply sound judgment by validating outputs and avoiding overreliance, ensuring accuracy and accountability in all work delivered.
Participate in AI readiness trainings and proactively identify opportunities for process improvement through automation and responsible AI integration.

Experience

Proven experience in a data, reporting, or business analyst role, including building Power BI dashboards from scratch and running reporting independently
Experience gathering reporting requirements from stakeholders and turning messy source data into reliable reporting
Exposure to financial services, asset finance, leasing, or book-based lending advantageous
Exposure to multi-entity group reporting/consolidation or credit-risk/portfolio-performance metrics advantageous

Skills & Behaviours

Proactive and self-directed — able to take a commercial question and run with it
Sharp analytical instincts, with an eye for trends and data-quality issues before figures reach decision-makers
Able to translate technical concepts for a non-technical leadership audience
Clear written and verbal communication for requirements gathering, presenting insight, and escalating issues
Sound awareness of data quality, integrity, confidentiality, and responsible handling of financial and commercial information

Education & Certifications

Bachelor's degree in IT, Computer Science, Information Systems, Data Analytics, Finance, Accounting, Statistics, or a related field preferred
Training or certification in Power BI, SQL, data analytics, or Microsoft Excel preferred but not required

Tools

Power BI (intermediate or better) — required, including building dashboards from scratch, creating DAX measures, and using Power Query
SQL for querying and manipulating data — required
Advanced Microsoft Excel advantageous
Project-management tools (e.g. Monday.com, ClickUp), ERP/database exposure, and knowledge of ETL processes and tools advantageous
