Application Support Analyst (Data)

A fantastic client of ours is looking for an Application Support Analyst to join their operations team. This is a dual-focus role half functional app support, half data investigation and fixing so you'll need to be as comfortable digging into data as you are managing a ticket queue.

• Escalating complex defects to engineering with clear impact assessments and reproduction steps
• Identifying recurring data and system issues and contributing to problem management activities
• Supporting first line teams with repeatable fixes and knowledge transfer
• Clearly communicating system outcomes and behaviour to non-technical stakeholders

You'll need:

• Experience in application support or functional support
• Strong SQL skills you'll be using this daily for investigation and data fixes
• Experience working with complex software platforms and operational data
• Strong analytical mindset with excellent attention to detail
• Experience with ticketing or incident management tools
• Confident communicating with both technical and non-technical stakeholders
• PowerShell or scripting experience
• AWS exposure
