- Build insightful Power BI dashboards and reporting solutions
- Use SQL and other analytical tools to interrogate and analyse data
- Improve consistency, quality and governance across reporting and analytics
- Establish scalable standards and processes as the analytics capability develops
- Promote greater use of data and insight in business decision making
- Provide informed recommendations and challenge rather than simply responding to reporting requests
- Remain hands on technically while helping shape the longer term direction of analytics
