We’re looking for a hands-on Business Intelligence Analyst to join the BI & Analytics team at a fast growing team going through an exciting data transformation phase.

  • Ability to read SQL Code
  • Implementing Row-Level Security (RLS) and governance controls to ensure the right people see the right data.
  • Using Power Query (M language) and DAX for advanced transformations and calculations.
  • Applying incremental refresh and other optimisation techniques to improve dataset performance.
  • Partnering with stakeholders across Finance, Operations and Commercial teams to gather requirements and turn them into actionable insight.
  • Communicating the “why” behind the data, not just the numbers.


What we’re looking for

  • Proven experience as a BI Analyst / Power BI Developer in a commercial environment.
  • Strong technical skills in Power BI (DAX, Power Query, RLS, semantic modelling).
  • Ability to read and understand SQL
  • Strong stakeholder engagement – able to explain technical concepts to non-technical audiences.
  • Comfortable working in a fast-paced, regulated environment where accuracy and governance are critical.

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.
