- Ideally, but not essentially, experience of ETL (extract, transform, load) of data between services,
- Advanced Excel skills and
- An excellent knowledge of SharePoint, Microsoft Word, PowerPoint, Teams and Outlook.
Further responsibilities of the role include:
- Translating data into information by creating and maintaining management dashboards
- Structuring operational data into time series information
- Recommending uses or the value of our existing data
- Liaising with stakeholders to understand their data analysis requirements
- Automating analysis / reporting to provide scheduled information to stakeholders
- Driving towards data deduplication principles
If this sounds like the perfect opportunity for you, please apply early as we will fill this role as soon as we find the right person for us and may withdraw the role for applications before the closing date.
