Are you passionate about transforming data into strategic insight? Do you thrive in leading high-performing teams to deliver impactful business intelligence solutions? If so, we want to hear from you.
We’re looking for an experienced Senior Data & Reporting Manager to lead our data reporting function, drive innovation, and empower decision-making across the organisation. In this role, you'll work closely with stakeholders, mentor a talented team, and harness the full potential of Power BI to bring clarity, accuracy, and action to our data.
Who Are We?
Not just another building society. Not just another job.

As a Senior Data & Reporting Manager reporting directly to the Head of Data Capability, you’ll lead and inspire a team of analysts and reporting specialists, creating a collaborative and innovative environment that fosters continuous growth. You’ll work closely with stakeholders across the business to understand reporting needs and translate them into actionable insights.
Using your expertise in Power BI, you’ll design and deliver high-impact dashboards that visualise key performance metrics and drive informed decision-making. You’ll ensure data accuracy, consistency, and governance while developing scalable reporting solutions and optimising data pipelines with SQL. You’ll also play a key role in engaging senior leaders, presenting clear insights, and aligning data strategy with broader business goals—all while championing best practices in data management and dashboard design.
