About the Role
At Pennon, we're transforming the way we serve our customers through one of the UK's largest smart metering programmes. With over one million customers set to benefit from smart technology across AMP8 and beyond, we're looking for a Senior Data Analyst to play a key role in delivering the insight that drives informed decision-making and programme success.
As a Senior Data Analyst, you'll turn complex data into meaningful insights, helping stakeholders understand performance, identify opportunities, and support the successful delivery of our smart meter programme. Working across operational, technical and business teams, you'll provide reporting and analysis that influences strategic decisions and supports contractual and regulatory requirements.
