Analytics Engineer - Contract
£310 per day, inside IR35 | Fully remote (UK) | ~6 months, extension likely
My client is a major UK business, looking for an Analytics Engineer to join their data engineering function. The team is mid-transition: Qlik Sense today, with Looker being onboarded over the coming months and visualisation migrating across.
The role
You'll be the bridge between the data and the business. You'll take a high-level objective, work out what the underlying business problem is, dig into the data, and write the SQL procedures that produce the analytical outputs the business consumes.
This isn't platform or capability building. It's applied SQL, analytical thinking, and getting answers in front of people.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
What you'll need
- Excellent SQL - this is the core of the role. ETL is done in SQL, and you'll be writing procedures to create analytical datasets
- BigQuery / GCP, or transferable data warehouse experience
- A BI and visualisation background - Qlik, Power BI, Tableau or Looker. The tool matters far less than the underlying modelling and visualisation skill
- An analyst's understanding of data combined with engineering discipline. Git and CI/CD are in daily use
- The ability to sit with a stakeholder, understand the business problem and hold the conversation

How you'll work
You'll be given objectives rather than task lists, so this suits someone who works out what needs doing, identifies gaps, and flags blockers early. Self-starting, proactive and visible - online, at standups, asking questions.
Details
£310 per day, inside IR35. Fully remote, with offices all over the country available if you'd like to use them. Around 6 months initially with genuine intent to extend for the right person.
One-stage interview, one hour.
“It took my CV and asked me questions relevant to understanding what kind of jobs to suggest for me. Suggestions were almost perfect. Jobs were exactly what I’ve been looking for.”
