Data Analyst (On-Site / possible some Hybrid)

Drive Data. Influence Decisions. Deliver Impact.

We’re seeking a commercially focused, insight-driven Data Analyst who excels at transforming complex data into clear, actionable insights. This is more than a reporting role — it’s an opportunity to directly influence strategic decisions, improve profitability, and enhance operational performance across a large, fast-paced organisation.

If you’re naturally curious, enjoy challenging assumptions, and thrive on uncovering trends that others miss, this role offers a genuine platform to make an impact.

The Role

As a key partner to Finance, Leadership, and Operations teams, you will:

* Turn operational and service centre data into meaningful commercial insights

* Identify trends, patterns, and key performance drivers affecting revenue and profitability

* Analyse end-to-end processes to uncover inefficiencies and optimisation opportunities

* Develop and deliver dynamic, user-friendly Power BI dashboards for real-time decision-making

* Challenge existing processes by identifying gaps and building data-backed business cases

* Present complex findings clearly and confidently to senior stakeholders

* Ensure high standards of data integrity, accuracy, and consistency

* Collaborate across teams to translate insights into measurable business improvements

About You

* Proven experience as a Data or Business Analyst (ideally in retail, automotive, manufacturing, or similar sectors)

* Strong Power BI expertise (2–3+ years) with a flair for impactful visualisation

* Solid SQL skills with experience handling large, complex datasets

* Advanced Excel capabilities

* Experience with Python (desirable, not essential)

* Highly analytical with a curious, problem-solving mindset

* Strong communicator, able to translate technical insights into business language

* Detail-oriented with a strong commitment to data quality

* Able to manage multiple priorities in a fast-paced environment

* Understanding of data warehousing concepts

Why This Role Matters

This role sits at the core of business performance. Your insights will directly shape strategic decisions, improve operational efficiency, and drive commercial success. You won’t just report on data — you’ll influence what happens next.

What’s on Offer

* Salary up to £45,000 (depending on experience)

* Hybrid working (1–2 days from home)

* Modern offices with excellent facilities, including a gym and on-site restaurant

* Opportunity to work in a large, evolving organisation where your impact is visible

Location

This is not a remote role. Regular on-site presence is required. Hybrid 2 days at home a week after 3 months probation

Where to Advertise Machine Learning Jobs in the UK (2026 Guide)

Advertising machine learning jobs in the UK requires a different approach to most technical hiring. The candidate pool is small, highly specialised and in demand across AI labs, financial services, healthcare, autonomous systems and consumer technology simultaneously. Machine learning engineers and researchers move between roles through professional networks, conference communities and specialist platforms — not general job boards where ML roles compete with unrelated software engineering positions for the same audience. This guide, published by MachineLearningJobs.co.uk, covers where to advertise machine learning roles in the UK in 2026, how the main platforms compare, what employers should expect to pay, and what the data says about hiring across different role types.

New Machine Learning Employers to Watch in 2026: UK and Global Companies Driving ML Innovation

Machine learning (ML) has transitioned from a specialised field into a core business capability. In 2026, organisations across healthcare, finance, robotics, autonomous systems, natural language processing, and analytics are expanding their machine learning teams to build scalable intelligent products and services. For professionals exploring opportunities on www.MachineLearningJobs.co.uk , understanding the companies that are scaling, winning investment, or securing high‑impact contracts is crucial. This article highlights the new and high‑growth machine learning employers to watch in 2026, focusing on UK innovators, international firms with significant UK presence, and global platforms investing in machine learning talent locally.

How Many Machine Learning Tools Do You Need to Know to Get a Machine Learning Job?

Machine learning is one of the most exciting and rapidly growing areas of tech. But for job seekers it can also feel like a maze of tools, frameworks and platforms. One job advert wants TensorFlow and Keras. Another mentions PyTorch, scikit-learn and Spark. A third lists Mlflow, Docker, Kubernetes and more. With so many names out there, it’s easy to fall into the trap of thinking you must learn everything just to be competitive. Here’s the honest truth most machine learning hiring managers won’t say out loud: 👉 They don’t hire you because you know every tool. They hire you because you can solve real problems with the tools you know. Tools are important — no doubt — but context, judgement and outcomes matter far more. So how many machine learning tools do you actually need to know to get a job? For most job seekers, the real number is far smaller than you think — and more logically grouped. This guide breaks down exactly what employers expect, which tools are core, which are role-specific, and how to structure your learning for real career results.
