Lead Business Intelligence Developer – Basingstoke

We have an opportunity for a Lead Business Intelligence Developer to join us on the exciting and rewarding path we are taking here at Castle Trust Bank. We pride ourselves in being a fintech challenger bank, providing specialist property mortgages, retail finance lending and savings accounts to a variety of customers.

This role plays a leading role within the Data team. You will own the data model design and deliver high quality data solutions from this platform, including Power BI reporting and data extracts. You will engage with stakeholders across the business to understand all aspects of the source systems and reporting requirements and then convert these into models and logic to enable suitable reporting to be built.

This will enable high-quality data solutions to be delivered, either as interactive and engaging Power BI reports, training/documentation for others to use their data models, or as data extracts. You will ensure reports are tested to a high standard before sharing with stakeholders, as well as put in place controls and checks to ensure data integrity is maintained. Delivering improved data governance and controls is another key responsibility for this role.

In addition, you will also have responsibility for managing and leading a team of Business Intelligence Analysts, setting clear objectives and managing them against these, ensuring collaboration and teamwork, and driving a culture of technical and personal development within the team.

This role will benefit a hybrid working arrangement, to be based between our Basingstoke office (3 days) and working the rest of the week from home.
