Lead Data Analyst - UK Remote - £80k


Are you looking for a role where you can actually make an impact? Do you want to work with one of the biggest names in UK film and music?


Middle8 are working with the group of companies that surrounds one of the biggest names in UK TV and music to add a Lead Data Analyst with a background in creating data visualisations and architecting the strategy from scratch whilst we build a data team that allows sensible and strategic business decisions to be made.


You'll be integral in analysing and deciphering the data from a number of sources both internal and external to create reports, data visualisations and work with the Board to create strategies to ensure a successful future for all facets of the business.


The expectation is that you'll be used to working with data from a number of sources and technologies and be comfortable building reports or visualisations to present back to the team. What technologies you use to do that is entirely up to you, but we'd expect you to pick something sensible.


Ideally you'll be the kind of person who is keen on making technical choices and recommendations, playing with new tech in your spare time. We want someone who loves it.


This role is 100% remote but we do need you to be in the UK. The opportunity here is to make a massive impact and scale your capability within an exciting business, all the while growing towards a 'Head of Data' type role.


Please apply today and we will be in touch to discuss the role in more detail.
