Senior Analytics Manager
Nottingham (Hybrid – 2x Days a Week in Office)
£80,000-£90,000 + Bonus
A leading UK financial services organisation is looking for a Senior Analytics Manager to build and lead a brand-new Analytics Centre of Excellence. Having recently invested heavily in a modern Microsoft Fabric data platform and significantly expanded its Data Engineering capability, the business is now entering the next phase of its transformation: placing analytics, AI and commercial insight at the heart of business decision-making. This is a rare opportunity to join a genuinely greenfield programme where you'll have the autonomy to shape the analytics strategy, build a high-performing team and influence senior leadership across the organisation.
The Company
You’ll be joining one of the UK's largest and longest-established financial institutions, with more than 175 years of heritage helping customers achieve home ownership and financial wellbeing. Today, the organisation is investing heavily in modern technology, data and digital capabilities as part of a business-wide transformation programme. Following the implementation of Microsoft Fabric as its enterprise data platform, the business is moving away from a legacy reporting environment towards a modern, AI-enabled analytics function focused on delivering measurable commercial value. Significant investment has already been made across Data Engineering, governance and cloud technologies, creating the foundations for an analytics capability that will support strategic decision-making across Lending, Risk, Finance and Customer functions. This is a highly visible role where you'll partner with senior stakeholders to embed a data-driven culture, develop advanced analytics capabilities and help shape how insight influences business performance.
