• Create and maintain semantic models leveraging established, curated data sources

Data Interpretation & Insight Delivery

• Analyse business data to identify trends, gaps, and opportunities, supporting operational decision-making
• Ensure reporting outputs are accurate, consistent, and aligned to agreed definitions and metrics

Power BI Design & User Experience

• Design visually compelling, easy-to-navigate dashboards with a strong focus on layout, alignment, and usability
• Apply best practices in data visualisation, ensuring clarity, consistency, and professional presentation standards
• Continuously improve report design to enhance user experience and adoption

Collaboration & Stakeholder Engagement

• Work closely with business stakeholders to refine requirements and iterate on reporting solutions
• Support adoption of reporting by ensuring outputs are intuitive, relevant, and aligned to business needs

Governance & Best Practices

• Ensure reporting aligns with established data governance, access controls, and organisational standards
• Maintain documentation and consistency across reporting outputs

Required Qualifications

• Bachelor’s degree in Business, Finance, Analytics, or a related field (or equivalent experience)
• Experience in Business Analysis, Reporting, or Analytics roles
• Proven experience working with business operations, finance, or contract-related data
• Extensive Power BI experience
• Strong communication skills
• Stakeholder management skills
• Portfolio / examples of work required
• Technical proficiency - Experience with DAX and semantic models.

Key Expectations:

• Strong attention to detail, with a high standard for formatting, alignment, and overall presentation quality
• Ability to follow defined standards, processes, and design guidelines while maintaining consistency across outputs
• Proactive mindset with the ability to independently manage requirements and deliver high-quality results
• Comfortable working in structured environments with defined data sources rather than building pipelines from scratch
