(RK310) Business Intelligence Developer
£55,000.00 - 65,000.00 Per Annum (Plus Remote working and Benefits)
Power BI / Business Intelligence Developer required for a busy and growing business, paying up to £65,000 + Benefits
This is a fully remote working role with only occasional meetups throughout the year - offices located in the South - and you do need to be UK based
This is a really good opportunity for someone who is genuinely strong in Power BI and enjoys taking business requirements and turning them into clear, useful reporting that people actually want to use.
Power BI sits at the centre of the organisation's reporting; supporting around 300 users across the business – from C-Suite and senior leadership through to Sales, Product, Finance, Business Analysts and operational teams.
The business has grown significantly over the last four years, from around 50 to 600 people, with several acquisitions completed and further growth ongoing. As a result, the BI function now needs additional support to take ownership of the day-to-day reporting workload while the team focus increasingly on integrating new businesses and developing the wider data platform - something you can also grow into as part of the role.
You'll be responsible for creating, maintaining and improving Power BI reports and dashboards, managing requests from users and making sure reporting remains accurate, clear and useful.
A big part of the role is understanding what somebody is actually trying to achieve rather than simply building exactly what they've asked for. You'll be comfortable questioning requirements, suggesting a better approach where appropriate and translating those conversations into well-designed reports and visualisations.
You're experience will look something like this:
Strong commercial experience with Power BI
Very good DAX and semantic/data modelling knowledge
Experience creating clear, engaging reports and visualisations
The ability to gather and challenge reporting requirements
Confidence dealing directly with a broad range of stakeholders, including senior and C-Level users
SQL experience
Power Query experience
Strong communication skills and the confidence to train users
There is also significant scope to broaden your technical skills over time.
You'll get to work with a central semantic model that currently supports the majority of the main reporting suite, therefore strong DAX and data modelling experience will be part of this role.
The current environment includes SQL Server, Azure Data Factory and Azure DevOps, with the business likely to move further towards Microsoft Fabric and AI-enabled data tooling in the future.
You don't need to be an Azure or Data Engineering expert today. The immediate priority is finding someone excellent with Power BI who can take ownership of reporting and help relieve the pressure on the existing BI function.
I do believe this is a great role for someone strong in Power BI, wants to remain in reports, but also has, or wants to add, some data modelling and engineering skills too.
If you're interested in developing further into SQL, modelling, Azure and Data Engineering as the team continues to grow, there should be plenty of opportunity to do so. Although please note this isn't a role where you'll join and immediately move away from reporting – Power BI will remain a major part of the position for the foreseeable future – but the scale and growth of the business means the role itself should continue to evolve.
