Data Analyst Team Lead - Leadership / Analysis / SQL - Remote First
Are you the kind of Data Analyst Team Lead who can take a team who is currently in a messy, noisy, slightly chaotic data landscape and wrap a proper layer of structure around it?
Maybe even enjoy it a bit?
Right now, the business has huge amounts of data coming in from multiple parts of the organisation, but everything is pretty siloed.
Different teams. Different feeds. Different standards. Nothing centralised yet.
Reporting directly into the Architect, this will be the Team Lead of a team of 6 Data Analysts of various levels sitting under you.
Primarily remote, the office is based in London, and you’ll need to be able to get there on occasion (once a month or so). You must be UK based for this position
What we are looking for:


  • Solid Data Analyst Team Lead or Data Analyst Management experience

  • Deep experience as a Data Analyst (this position is about 70% Data Analysis, 30% Leadership)

  • Strong legacy tech experience – SPSS, SAS, Tableau etc (this is all tech that they are looking to consolidate into a more modern Databricks platform)

  • Strong leadership skills (this is very much a “leadership” position helping to drive the team etc, not a “management/process” type position)

Advantageous skills include experience with:


  • Databricks

If you want a role where you can genuinely shape a data ecosystem and build something future ready rather than just maintain someone else’s blueprint, this is worth a conversation

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.
