About the role
The Analytics Business Partner (Practices) is a domain-aligned role responsible for translating data into actionable, strategic insights that support Node4’s Practices function, encompassing Delivery, Support, and Customer Success.
Embedded within the Practices function, the Analytics Business Partner acts as a trusted advisor to senior leaders by combining deep operational understanding with strong analytical capability and hands-on expertise in Power BI modelling and reporting.
This role goes beyond descriptive reporting. The Analytics Business Partner is accountable for:
- Building and maintaining Power BI semantic models
- Developing executive-grade reports and dashboards
- Delivering forward-looking, insight-led analysis that informs operational, commercial, and strategic decision-making
- Driving improvements in service performance, customer outcomes, resource utilisation, and operational efficiency
The role works closely with Practices leadership, the Data Platform team, and junior analytics roles to ensure insights are trusted, relevant, and aligned to Node4’s strategic priorities.
Responsibilities
Strategic Business Partnering
- Act as the primary analytics partner for the Delivery, Support, and Customer Success leadership teams
- Build strong, trusted relationships with senior stakeholders across Practices
- Develop a deep understanding of operational processes, service delivery models, customer success objectives, and associated KPIs
- Influence decision-making through insight-led recommendations rather than simply providing data
- Ensure analytics activity supports operational excellence, customer retention, customer satisfaction, service performance, and profitability objectives
- Support strategic initiatives through analysis of operational performance, customer outcomes, capacity, and service efficiency
