Job Title: Logging Data Analyst
Location: Thames Valley Region
Salary: £28,000 per annum
Job Type: Full-Time

Overview:

An exciting opportunity has arisen for a Logging Data Analyst to join a market-leading utilities contractor specialising in water leakage detection and clean water network management. As a key member of the data team, you’ll play an essential role in identifying high-leakage areas, producing field information for technicians, and supporting the wider operations with data-driven insights.

This role is ideal for someone with strong analytical skills, high computer literacy, and a proactive attitude, ideally with experience in the water industry or a similar utilities environment.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Identify and track points of interest (POIs) using current methods and third-party systems.

  • Collect, analyse, and report data to support leakage detection and reduction initiatives.

  • Produce detailed reports and presentations using Microsoft Office, particularly Excel.

  • Collaborate closely with senior management teams and operational departments.

  • Set and monitor performance targets at area and individual technician level.

  • Assist with the deployment and maintenance of logging equipment, ensuring timely support.

  • Maintain data records in line with GDPR guidelines and company policies.

  • Contribute to continuous improvement by proposing and trialling new tools and techniques.

    Skills & Experience Required:

  • Minimum 2 years’ experience in an office-based or data-driven role.

  • Advanced knowledge of Microsoft Excel and strong general IT skills.

  • Experience with data capture techniques and analytics tools.

  • Ability to interpret large datasets and identify actionable insights.

  • Familiarity with GIS (Geographical Information Systems) is highly desirable.

  • Strong problem-solving skills and attention to detail.

  • Excellent communication and interpersonal skills.

  • Ability to work both independently and as part of a collaborative team.

  • Prior experience in the water industry or leak detection is advantageous, but not essential.

    Why Join Us?

  • Be part of a fast-growing, innovative company making a positive environmental impact.

  • Work within a supportive team that values initiative and continuous improvement.

  • Gain experience with industry-leading technologies and solutions.

    If you're passionate about data, sustainability, and delivering real-world solutions, we’d love to hear from you.
