We're recruiting a Principal Analyst to lead a large analytics function focused on hospital services across England. This is a genuinely purpose-driven opportunity where your work will directly support the assessment and improvement of services including maternity, surgery, cancer care, neonatal services, and wider hospital performance.

  • Excellent stakeholder management skills and strategic awareness
  • Strong technical understanding of SQL, Power BI and Excel
  • Experience working within Azure environments preferable
