Halesowen / Remote

Permanent

Are you a Data or BI Engineer who wants to do more than simply build dashboards?

We're recruiting for a Data & Insights Engineer to join a growing Data & Analytics function, combining hands-on Power BI development with data engineering, modelling and transformation .

You'll work across the data lifecycle, from shaping and engineering the underlying datasets through to creating reporting and insights used by teams across Operations, Finance, HR and the wider organisation.

It's a particularly strong opportunity for someone who enjoys the technical side of BI and wants greater exposure to modern data engineering and cloud data platforms .

What you'll be working on

• Designing and developing Power BI dashboards, reports and semantic models
• Building and optimising DAX calculations and data models
• Developing data pipelines using SQL and modern data platforms
• Transforming and modelling data for scalable reporting
• Improving data quality, consistency and governance
• Integrating data from multiple systems and sources
• Working directly with stakeholders to turn complex requirements into useful insights
• Helping shape reporting, data architecture and governance as the function continues to mature

What we're looking for

You'll ideally bring strong experience across:

Power BI | SQL / SQL Server | DAX | Data Modelling | Data Transformation | Data Engineering / BI Engineering

You'll need to be comfortable working across both the engineering and reporting layers rather than specialising exclusively in one.

Experience with any of the following would be particularly valuable:

Microsoft Fabric | Snowflake | Databricks | ETL | APIs | Python | Data Governance

Why consider it?

This is a chance to join a growing data function that's investing in its technology and moving towards a more modern data environment.

Rather than inheriting a narrow reporting position, you'll have the opportunity to work across BI, engineering, architecture and data quality , while helping shape how data is used across a large, complex organisation.

The work also has a genuine purpose – the insights and systems you build ultimately support better decision-making across services for children, young people and adults throughout the UK.
