Senior BI Data Analyst

Why join our team!

Join a team at the forefront of transformation—where your skills won’t just be used, they’ll be foundational. As a Senior BI Data Analyst, you’ll play a critical role in helping us build a new analytics capability from the ground up. While we’re still in the process of setting up our own SQL Server environment, this role offers a unique opportunity to shape that infrastructure and influence how data is managed, modeled, and leveraged across the business.

You’ll be instrumental in moving the organization away from traditional operational reporting and into a space of advanced analytics and strategic insight. This is more than a technical role—it’s a chance to be a co-architect of a new BI vision, working closely with leadership to define best practices, mentor others, and solve real business problems with data.

If you're excited by the idea of building something meaningful, influencing data strategy, and being part of a forward-thinking team, this is your opportunity to make a lasting impact.
