Your new company
We are a well‑established national organisation undergoing a significant transformation of our digital, data and information landscape. As part of a major modernisation programme, we are investing in enhanced data capabilities, improved governance practices and a more connected, insight‑driven data environment. This is a rare opportunity to contribute to a mission‑critical programme, supporting the development of a new enterprise‑wide data foundation that will enable better decision‑making and service delivery for colleagues and stakeholders across the UK.
Your new role
As a Data Analyst, you will play a key role in shaping and delivering high‑quality data insights that support business change and future operating models. You will work across a complex multi‑system environment to gather, analyse and interpret data from a range of sources, producing clear, actionable intelligence for programme leads and senior stakeholders. You will support the development of unified data structures, contribute to the documentation and mapping of data flows, and assist in strengthening data governance and quality standards. The role will involve hands‑on data analysis, transformation and visualisation, while also supporting activities such as data cleansing, validation and the improvement of metadata and information asset records. You will collaborate with technical teams, business SMEs and project colleagues to ensure data is accurate, reliable and fit for purpose within a rapidly evolving programme landscape.
What you'll need to succeed
You will be an experienced Data Analyst with a strong background in working within complex organisations and multi‑system environments. You will bring solid analytical capability, proven experience in data modelling, cleansing, transformation and visualisation and confidence working with large and heterogeneous datasets. Strong proficiency in tools such as SQL, Excel and a leading BI platform (e.g. Power BI, Tableau) is essential. Experience supporting data governance, data quality initiatives or information management improvements will be highly beneficial, as will familiarity with documenting data flows, attributes and metadata. You should be comfortable engaging with both technical and non‑technical stakeholders, interpreting requirements and translating them into meaningful outputs. Excellent communication skills, attention to detail and the ability to work independently within a fast‑moving programme will be key to your success.
What you'll get in return
You will join a programme with meaningful national impact, helping to build a more connected and insight‑driven data environment. Alongside a competitive daily rate, you will benefit from flexible working arrangements, a collaborative team and the opportunity to contribute to a transformative initiative that will significantly enhance the organisation's digital and analytical maturity.
