Overview

We're looking for a hands-on MI/BI Data Analyst to join a Transaction Banking transformation programme. This is a technical, delivery-focused role where you'll work closely with Business Analysts to turn requirements into high-quality reporting and dashboard solutions.

The ideal candidate will have strong recent experience with Power BI, SQL, and Power Query, with the ability to work independently through a backlog of reporting requirements and deliver solutions end-to-end.

Key Responsibilities

• Develop and deliver MI reports, dashboards, and analytics solutions using Power BI.
• Perform data discovery, data analysis, and validation activities using SQL and reporting tools.
• Work closely with Business Analysts to refine requirements and create user stories.
• Build reporting solutions from requirements through to testing and deployment.
• Investigate and analyse large datasets to identify insights and validate outputs.
• Manage multiple reporting requests and priorities, ensuring timely delivery.
• Support UAT and ensure reporting solutions meet business requirements.
• Undertake occasional Excel-based analysis and dataset reviews.

Essential Skills & Experience

• Strong hands-on Power BI experience, including recent dashboard development.
• Strong SQL skills for data analysis, discovery, validation, and reporting.
• Experience using Power Query for data preparation and transformation.
• Proven experience developing reporting and dashboard solutions end-to-end.
• Experience working independently and managing a backlog of requirements.
• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills.
• Experience working with large and complex datasets.
• Excellent communication and stakeholder engagement skills.

Preferred Experience

• Financial Services or Banking experience.
• Knowledge of Transaction Banking products and processes.
• Understanding of banking data and reporting environments.
• Experience working within large transformation or change programmes.

The strongest candidates will demonstrate:

• Recent, hands-on Power BI development experience.
• Strong SQL capability with confidence investigating and validating data.
• Experience delivering reporting solutions from requirements through to release.
• Ability to work autonomously and drive delivery.
• Financial Services exposure, ideally within Transaction Banking.
• A technical mindset with a focus on quality delivery rather than a purely business-focused Data Analyst background.
