What you’ll do

- Lead BI design & development – own the design, build and optimisation of Power BI dashboards and reports that turn complex, multi-source data into transparent, decision-ready insight.

- Lead the team technically – provide technical direction, code review and mentoring to a small team of BI developers / analysts.
- Make quality visible – build data-quality and asset-health dashboards that make issues visible and actionable.




- Partner with data engineering – consume curated / API-based data layers reliably and efficiently.
- Bring AI into analytics – leverage Power BI Copilot and Fabric AI to speed up development and enable natural-language, AI-assisted insight – smart narratives, anomaly detection and Q&A; – for business users.
- Optimise for performance & cost – tune datasets, refresh, gateways, and capacity.

What you’ll bring

- ~7+ years in BI / analytics with deep, hands-on Power BI expertise (DAX, Power Query / M, data modelling).
- Strong semantic modelling (star schema) and performance-tuning skills.
- Solid SQL.
- Experience leading or mentoring a small BI team and setting standards.
- Power BI Service administration: workspaces, deployment pipelines, RLS, gateways.
- Excellent requirements-gathering and stakeholder-management skills.
- Hands-on with Power BI Copilot / Fabric AI and using GenAI to accelerate development.

Nice to have
