- Analysing model outputs to identify performance issues and opportunities to enhance results
- Working with global delivery and technology teams to support production-ready data models and BI solutions
- Running statistical and exploratory analyses to uncover actionable insights
- Communicating analytical findings clearly to both technical and non-technical colleagues
The ideal skills & experience:
- Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, with a natural curiosity for data
- Experience using SQL and at least one analytical language such as Python or R
- A solid understanding of statistics and machine learning fundamentals
- Experience working with data transformation or ETL tools (DBT is a plus)
- Confidence explaining technical concepts to non-technical audiences
- A collaborative mindset and comfort working with distributed, cross-functional teams
What's in it for you:
- Flexible hybrid working (two to three days in the office)
- 25 days leave, 2 days paid for volunteering and life event leave
- Competitive salary and bonus (bonus dependent on role)
- Company pension
- Enhanced parental leave
- Healthcare options
- Wide range of flexible benefits
