Responsibilities Include:
Business Analysis

Work closely with business stakeholders to understand requirements, run workshops, and document Business Requirement Specifications
-
Translate needs into practical, feasible solutions — including software and non-software options
-
Prepare solution design documents and participate in User Acceptance Testing
-
Project manage solution delivery from engagement through to post-implementation support
Data & BI Analysis
-
Collect, clean, and transform data from multiple sources to ensure accuracy and integrity
-
Conduct analysis using SQL, Excel, and other analytical tools to uncover insights that drive decision-making
-
Build, maintain, and enhance Power BI dashboards (preferred BI tool)
-
Produce clear, compelling visualisations, reports, and summaries for business stakeholders
-
Identify data quality issues, troubleshoot system or data challenges, and maintain high data standards.
