What we're looking for
1. Technical expertise in data cleansing, transformation and manipulation, with experience in delivering reliable, robust data products.
2. The ability to gain an understanding of internal and external data sources, to gather and understand requirements and to use that knowledge and understanding to build data sets, data models and reports.
3. Excellent level of knowledge and experience of SQL.
4. The ability to investigate problems and make recommendations for business improvements.
5. An innovative mindset and the ability to challenge ways of working to generate new insights and ways of doing things.
6. Programming experience in any language (e.g. SAS, Python, R).
7. A good understanding of data architecture and management together with coding and development methodologies.
8. Exposure to reporting services and visualisation tools (e.g. Tableau, Qlik Sense, Alteryx or Power BI).
9. An understanding of cloud-based platforms is beneficial (e.g. AWS, Azure, GCP).
10. A proficient user of Microsoft applications.
