• Partner with business stakeholders to understand requirements, define appropriate measures and KPIs, and translate business questions into analytical solutions.
• Investigate changes, anomalies and unexpected trends in data, identifying potential causes and business impacts.
• Ensure MI and analytical outputs are accurate, consistent and appropriately governed.
• Present complex analysis clearly to both technical and non-technical audiences.
• Contribute to analytical standards, reusable approaches and best practices across the BI team.
• Support junior analysts through coaching, collaboration and knowledge sharing.

What You Will Bring

• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, with the ability to investigate data, challenge results and identify the drivers behind trends.
• Ability to translate business requirements and complex data into clear measures, insights and recommendations.
• Strong communication and stakeholder engagement skills.
