About the Role

We are working with a growing financial services business looking to add a SQL-focused developer to their central Business Intelligence team. You will be writing and optimising SQL day to day, working with data that isn’t sat neatly in a warehouse, and using logic and structure to make sense of it. Business requirements are typically external reports, so strong communication and stakeholder management skills are key.

Responsibilities

  • Writing and optimising complex SQL queries, including CTEs, joins, window functions, aggregates and date logic
  • Working with data that isn’t held in a formal warehouse, applying structure and logic to build reliable outputs
  • Building and maintaining dashboards in Power BI
  • Gathering requirements from stakeholders and translating business needs into technical solutions
  • Manipulating and cleaning data in Excel where needed
  • Explaining your reasoning and technical approach clearly to both technical and non-technical colleagues

Requirements

  • Strong hands-on SQL experience, including CTEs, window functions, joins and query optimisation
  • Comfort working with data without the safety net of a data warehouse
  • Confidence talking through your logic and reasoning on technical problems
  • Exposure to Power BI (or another BI tool) is a plus but not essential, SQL depth matters more
  • Good communication skills and a collaborative approach
