Additional Information:

In addition to the person specification attached, we want to highlight two areas that are critical for this role and where we expect candidates to demonstrate particularly strong experience.

Data Governance

This role sits within a team that is actively building and enforcing a data governance framework across the organisation. We are looking for someone who has done more than work with data. We need someone who understands how to set standards, improve data quality at source, and bring colleagues along with them. Experience designing or leading data governance initiatives, defining data ownership, or working within a formal governance structure (such as a Data Quality Champions programme or similar) will be a strong advantage. The successful candidate will be expected to challenge poor data practice constructively and help embed a culture of accountability around data across multiple service areas.

Power BI and Data Visualisation for Decision-Making

We use Power BI as our primary reporting and analytics tool and this is not a light-touch requirement. We need someone who can build robust, well-structured dashboards and reports that give senior stakeholders and leadership teams clear, reliable insight to support decision-making. We are looking for candidates who can translate complex data into something that non-technical audiences can act on. Not just someone who knows the tool, but someone who understands the audience and designs outputs accordingly. Experience presenting data to leadership or contributing to strategic reporting cycles would be a real plus.

Candidates who can demonstrate both of these will be given strong consideration, even where other parts of their background are still developing.

We act as an Employment Agency/Business with regards to this vacancy. As an Equal Opportunities employer we welcome applications regardless of race, gender, nationality, ethnic origin, sexual orientation, religion, marital status, disability or age. All applicants are considered on the basis of their merits and abilities for the job
