Data Interpretation & Insight Delivery
- Analyse business data to identify trends, gaps, and opportunities, supporting operational decision-making
- Ensure reporting outputs are accurate, consistent, and aligned to agreed definitions and metrics
Power BI Design & User Experience
- Design visually compelling, easy-to-navigate dashboards with a strong focus on layout, alignment, and usability
- Apply best practices in data visualisation, ensuring clarity, consistency, and professional presentation standards
- Continuously improve report design to enhance user experience and adoption
Collaboration & Stakeholder Engagement
- Work closely with business stakeholders to refine requirements and iterate on reporting solutions
- Support adoption of reporting by ensuring outputs are intuitive, relevant, and aligned to business needs
Governance & Best Practices

- Portfolio / examples of work required
- Technical proficiency - Experience with DAX and semantic models.
Key Expectations:
- Strong attention to detail, with a high standard for formatting, alignment, and overall presentation quality
- Ability to follow defined standards, processes, and design guidelines while maintaining consistency across outputs
- Proactive mindset with the ability to independently manage requirements and deliver high-quality results
- Comfortable working in structured environments with defined data sources rather than building pipelines from scratch
