About the Role

You’ll take ownership of production analytics, enable stakeholders to self-serve with confidence, and play a key role in shaping how data is used across the business. It’s a great fit for someone who enjoys building reliable data foundations, working close to real business use cases, and owning data end to end.

  • Own analytics data in production, including monitoring, alerting, and incident resolution
  • Improve data freshness, reliability, and consistency across the platform
  • Optimise the data warehouse for performance, cost, and accessibility


Data Quality & Engineering Standards

  • Implement testing, validation, and CI/CD practices for analytics code
  • Improve observability around data quality, volume anomalies, and model health
  • Contribute to governance practices such as lineage, documentation, and access control


Collaboration & Enablement

  • Work closely with analysts, engineers, and product teams on cross-functional initiatives
  • Enable stakeholders to self-serve analytics safely and effectively
  • Balance speed, quality, and long-term maintainability when making technical decisions

  • Hands-on experience with dbt or similar transformation frameworks
  • Proficiency in Python for data manipulation and pipeline support
  • Experience working with cloud data warehouses (Snowflake, BigQuery, Redshift, or similar)
  • Solid understanding of data warehousing concepts and modern ELT workflows
  • Comfortable owning production data and supporting it end to end
  • Strong communication skills and experience working cross-functionally


Required Skills



  • Experience consuming data from event streams
  • Familiarity with modern table formats (e.g. Iceberg or similar)
  • Exposure to BI and dashboarding tools
  • Experience improving data observability and monitoring
  • Comfort working in Linux or Unix environments


Preferred Skills



  • High ownership of a modern analytics platform
  • Clear impact on how data is used across the business
  • Strong collaboration with product, engineering, and analytics teams
  • Opportunity to shape modelling standards, tooling, and best practices
  • Remote-first working with flexibility and autonomy


Pay range and compensation package



  • Competitive salary with performance-related bonus
  • Enhanced pension with salary sacrifice options
  • Private health insurance and life assurance
  • Generous annual leave allowance (including public holidays)
  • Long-term benefits such as extended leave after tenure
