Senior Data Analyst
Blip is a leading tech company focused on software engineering solutions for sports entertainment. We operate at scale. As part of Flutter Entertainment, we play an essential role in the Group's goal of becoming the global leader in online sports betting and iGaming, developing innovative products and platforms for over 14 million monthly customers worldwide. We are serious about Tech. We are problem-solvers with big ambitions, keeping a people-first mindset at the core of our work. We prioritize flexibility as we strive to deliver the best technological products and tackle the greatest industry challenges. Recognizing that everyone brings their own strengths, backgrounds and new perspectives, we empower you to be yourself. That uniqueness shapes the culture of belonging we are so proud of.
The Role
Global Platforms operates at significant scale (~600 people), requiring a live, accurate, view of workforce composition, allocation, cost, and capability. This role is responsible for building and maintaining that view — enabling leadership to understand who we have, where they are deployed, how their time is spent, and how this aligns to investment, delivery and efficiency outcomes. The role sits at the intersection of Technology, Finance, and HR, combining data engineering, analytics, and business insight. It will also be central to the evolution of AI-enabled tooling, dashboards, and processes to continuously improve visibility, forecasting and decision-making.
What You'll be Doing
Workforce Visibility & Allocation
- Maintain a single, accurate view of all people (~600) across Global Platforms, tracking organisational structure and role types, squad/platform allocation, location and cost centre, skills and capability profiles
- Provide clear insight into how resources are distributed vs strategic priorities
Capacity & Investment Tracking
- Track how time is spent across capitalised delivery, operational activity, and training/development
- Ensure alignment between reported effort, financial capitalisation, and delivery plans
- Identify and resolve inconsistencies between engineering, finance, and planning views
