Data Analyst | Wealth & Asset Management


Salary:Up to £50,000 plus generous package


Location:London, Hybrid (3 days per week onsite)


Position:Permanent



I'm partnered with an ambitious and fast-growing wealth management group, backed by private equity and actively expanding through strategic acquisitions. This is a business that combines the agility of a scale-up with the backing and stability of a well-capitalised, established firm. Their modular approach to wealth services has positioned them as a major disruptor in the UK financial services space.


As part of this transformation journey, they are looking to bring on a Data Analyst - a key strategic and operational role reporting into the CTO. This role sits at the heart of technology operations and is instrumental in shaping how data is used to drive decisions, monitor performance, and deliver operational excellence across the technology function.


This isn’t a traditional back-office data role. You’ll act as the connective tissue between the CTO, Finance, Delivery, and other leadership teams, helping to ensure that data is consistently driving smarter decisions and strategic alignment.


What You’ll Be Doing:

  • Designing and maintaining executive dashboards that provide visibility into financials, supplier performance, risk, delivery metrics, and workforce analytics
  • Leading budget tracking, cost control, and forecasting within the technology function
  • Managing vendor data, including contract renewals, reviews, and supplier KPIs
  • Monitoring and reporting on operational and technology risks, security vulnerabilities, and audit items
  • Aggregating Agile delivery metrics and reporting progress against forecasted business benefits
  • Supporting governance and prioritisation processes with high-quality data and analysis
  • Acting as a liaison across key stakeholders, ensuring alignment and structured decision-making
  • Identifying and driving improvements across operational workflows


Skills and Qualifications:

  • Experience in a technology operations, business management, or data-driven strategy role
  • Financial experience across budgeting, variance analysis, and cost tracking; ideally with an accounting qualification (CIMA, ACCA, ACA) or equivalent experience
  • Excellent proficiency with data analytics tools - particularly Power BI and Excel
  • Deep understanding of IT operations, supplier management, and risk frameworks
  • Familiarity with Agile delivery principles and project performance tracking
  • Confident communicator, comfortable working with senior stakeholders and across departments
  • Ability to turn complex data into clear, actionable insight


Perks (to name a few):

  • Attractive employee pension scheme
  • 25 days annual leave + public holidays + office Christmas close (3 days)
  • Buy and sell holidays up to 5 days
  • Private medical insurance, group life insurance, and income protection insurance
  • Discretionary performance-related bonus


This is a rare opportunity to join a business in high-growth mode, where you’ll be empowered to shape how data drives performance and technology strategy from the inside out. If this sounds like your kind of challenge, don't hesitate to apply!

Quantum-Enhanced AI in Data Science: Embracing the Next Frontier

Data science has undergone a staggering transformation in the past decade, evolving from a niche academic discipline into a linchpin of modern industry. Across every sector—finance, healthcare, retail, manufacturing—data scientists have become indispensable, leveraging statistical methods and machine learning to turn raw information into actionable insights. Yet as datasets grow ever larger and machine learning models become more computationally expensive, there are genuine questions about how far current methods can be pushed. Enter quantum computing, a nascent but promising technology grounded in the counterintuitive principles of quantum mechanics. Often dismissed just a few years ago as purely experimental, quantum computing is quickly gaining traction as prototypes evolve into cloud-accessible machines. When paired with artificial intelligence—particularly in the realm of data science—the results could be game-changing. From faster model training and complex optimisation to entirely new forms of data analysis, quantum-enhanced AI stands poised to disrupt established practices and create new opportunities. In this article, we will: Explore how data science has reached its current limits in certain areas, and why classical hardware might no longer suffice. Provide an accessible overview of quantum computing concepts and how they differ from classical systems. Examine the potential of quantum-enhanced AI to solve key data science challenges, from data wrangling to advanced machine learning. Highlight real-world applications, emerging job roles, and the skills you need to thrive in this new landscape. Offer actionable steps for data professionals eager to stay ahead of the curve in a rapidly evolving field. Whether you’re a practising data scientist, a student weighing up your future specialisations, or an executive curious about the next technological leap, read on. The quantum era may be closer than you think, and it promises to radically transform the very fabric of data science.
