An opportunity has arisen for a Business Intelligence Analyst within our Business Intelligence team based at Headquarters in Sheffield.

As an experienced analyst, you will provide specialist, professional, and technical advice, direction, and input across a range of activities and resources to deliver business intelligence.

You will also have an excellent working knowledge of SQL & Microsoft Office, particularly Excel, Word and PowerPoint.

You will be using the principles and concepts of trends and identification of intelligence from data to make decisions, to influence others’ thinking and to negotiate with them to achieve an outcome.

You will have the ability to speak easily and confidently to management at all levels, advising and directing in data and intelligence. You will need experience in delivering training and presentations to individuals and groups, ensuring a level of understanding of how the data is collected and how to interpret it.
