Business Intelligence Analyst

You're three levels deep into a dashboard when you spot it: a spend pattern nobody's flagged, on an account big enough that fixing it matters. You don't just send the chart. You call the stakeholder, walk them through the "so what," and watch the plan change because of something you found. That's the job.

We're growing our Business Intelligence team, and we're looking for someone to help us report on and make sense of some of the largest workforce and talent programmes around. This isn't a role where you build a dashboard and move on we want someone who reads the trend behind the numbers, challenges assumptions, and helps our stakeholders actually use what you find.

What your week could look like

• Building and maintaining Power BI dashboards that people genuinely open and use
• Delivering the weekly, monthly and quarterly reporting our customers rely on
• Digging into workforce, spend and performance data to find the trend before anyone asks
• Sitting down with customer teams, PMOs and stakeholders to explain what it means for them
• Pulling data via SQL and Databricks, and picking off the odd ad-hoc request that lands on your desk
• Helping us automate the reporting we do too much of by hand

You might be our person if…

• You've built a real track record as a BI Analyst or in a similar Business Intelligence role.
• Your Power BI skills are strong, comfortable building dashboards and visualisations, not just tidying up someone else's.
• You can turn a dataset into a recommendation, not just a report.
• You're a confident communicator who's used to holding your own with stakeholders.
• You know your way around SQL and Excel, and you're not fazed by a new data source.
• Bonus points for exposure to VMS platforms (SAP Fieldglass, VNDLY, Beeline, Coupa), Databricks, or a background in recruitment, staffing, MSP or RPO, but none of these are dealbreakers.

Why join us

You'll be working alongside experienced BI professionals on accounts that genuinely matter to the business, with real training and real say in how data gets used to make decisions. The role is UK based and you'll spend some time early on with the team in London, Luton or Manchester, then settle into a mostly remote rhythm with occasional office days.
