Are you passionate about supporting data-driven decision making at a senior level, through data visualisation, storytelling and insight? Are you interested in helping transform our current management information service into a dynamic, strategically-aligned business intelligence and data analytics (BIDA) service?

Based within Strategy and Planning, you will play a key role in supporting the Head of Business Intelligence & Data Analytics in implementing and delivering the new BIDA service. You will have lead responsibility for a group of analysts and for the development of suites of business intelligence reports across a number of key themes, including the student lifecycle, international reputation measures and institutional key performance indicators. You will work in partnership with subject matter experts across the institution, and ensure that new business intelligence (BI) reports are aligned with institutionally agreed dataset priorities, definitions and methodologies. You will help ensure that the current team is equipped to deliver the new service, and that end users across the University are well supported where they have devolved responsibilities.

You will balance a proactive and solutions-focused approach to leading and managing service delivery. This will include managing, mitigating and escalating issues and risks to the Head of Business Intelligence & Data Analytics as appropriate
