Your new company

Working for a globally renowned telecoms organisation.

Your new role

We are looking for an experienced Data Analyst / Analytics Engineer to design, build and optimise scalable analytical datasets that power business intelligence, reporting, and commercial analytics.

This role sits within a multidisciplinary data team responsible for delivering reliable, high‑quality analytical data products used across commercial and marketing functions. The ideal candidate will bring strong analytical thinking, advanced SQL expertise, and hands-on experience with GCP/BigQuery, Looker, and Qlik Sense. They will have a proven track record of designing analytics‑ready datasets leveraged by BI tools and semantic layers.

This is not a pipeline engineering role. We are seeking someone who excels in analysing/ developing analytical data models, defining consistent business metrics, and enabling self‑service analytics across the organisation.

What you'll need to succeed

Highly proficient in SQL, with hands-on experience developing complex analytical transformations.

Demonstrated ability to build robust analytical data models for BI tools and reporting platforms.

Strong experience using BI Tool Qliksense.

Skilled in working with semantic and metrics layers, including tools such as Looker and LookML.

Adept at defining and maintaining consistent business metrics across reporting and analytics functions.

Proficiency in SQL, GCP big query and good knowledge of Python.

Experienced in designing analytics-ready datasets, focusing on usability rather than pure ingestion pipelines.

Strong working knowledge of Google BigQuery and the wider Google Cloud Platform ecosystem.

Excellent data analysis and profiling skills, with the ability to interpret and draw insights from complex datasets.

Experienced in implementing analytical modelling techniques, including star schemas and wide-table designs.

Background working in Telecommunications, particularly within commercial or marketing analytics teams.

Exceptional communication abilities and strong stakeholder management skills.

What you'll get in return

Flexible working options available.

Where to Advertise Data Science Jobs in the UK (2026 Guide)

Advertising data science jobs in the UK requires a different approach to most technical hiring. Data science spans a broad and often misunderstood spectrum — from statistical modelling and experimental design through to machine learning engineering, product analytics and AI research. The strongest candidates identify firmly with specific subdisciplines and are frustrated by adverts that conflate data scientist with data analyst, business intelligence developer or machine learning engineer. General job boards produce high application volumes for data roles but consistently fail to match specialist data science profiles with the right opportunities. This guide, published by DataScienceJobs.co.uk, covers where to advertise data science roles in the UK in 2026, how the main platforms compare, what employers should expect to pay, and what the data says about hiring across different role types.

This article highlights new and high-growth data science employers to watch in 2026, focusing on UK startups, scale-ups, and global firms expanding their data science operations locally.

How Many Data Science Tools Do You Need to Know to Get a Data Science Job?

If you’re trying to break into data science — or progress your career — it can feel like you are drowning in names: Python, R, TensorFlow, PyTorch, SQL, Spark, AWS, Scikit-learn, Jupyter, Tableau, Power BI…the list just keeps going. With every job advert listing a different combination of tools, many applicants fall into a trap: they try to learn everything. The result? Long tool lists that sound impressive — but little depth to back them up. Here’s the straight-talk version most hiring managers won’t explicitly tell you: 👉 You don’t need to know every data science tool to get hired. 👉 You need to know the right ones — deeply — and know how to use them to solve real problems. Tools matter, but only in service of outcomes. So how many data science tools do you actually need to know to get a job? For most job seekers, the answer is not “27” — it’s more like 8–12, thoughtfully chosen and well understood. This guide explains what employers really value, which tools are core, which are role-specific, and how to focus your toolbox so your CV and interviews shine.
