Confident using Excel and Power BI, you will produce high-quality reporting and dashboards that support decision-making.
You’ll be organised, collaborative and able to manage competing priorities while maintaining strong attention to detail.
A commitment to equality, inclusion and using data responsibly to avoid bias will be central to how you work.
