• Ensure data accuracy, integrity and consistency across all systems and reporting.

What we’re looking for

• Proven experience delivering data analysis and reporting in an operational or project environment.
• Advanced proficiency in Power BI and Excel (modelling, DAX, Power Query, pivot tables).
• Experience with SQL or similar query languages for data extraction.
• Strong communication skills, with the ability to translate complex insights for both technical and non-technical audiences.
• Knowledge of forecasting, predictive modelling, or resource planning in production/manufacturing is a big plus.
• Familiarity with SharePoint, ERP, or project management systems (e.g. NetSuite, Dynamics 365, MS Project) would be beneficial.

Who you are

• A problem-solver with strong analytical skills and a data-driven mindset.
• Highly organised and detail-oriented, able to manage multiple priorities.
• Collaborative and curious, with the confidence to work across teams and influence decision-making.
• Someone who brings positivity, energy, and creativity to their work and enjoys the ride along the way!
