Analytics Engineer (Databricks) — Contract

Description

Alliance Surgical is a UK private healthcare business working across consultant-led services, medical indemnity insurance broking and claims management.

We're partway through building a new data platform on Azure and Databricks, and we now need someone to turn that platform into reporting our clients actually use.

The role

You'll design and build the client-facing reporting layer on Databricks — modelling the data, defining the metrics, and delivering dashboards that go out to external clients rather than sitting on an internal wiki.

This is a delivery role, not a strategy one.

We know roughly what the reports need to show; we need someone who can build them.

What you'll do

• Build and document data models in Databricks SQL to support recurring client reporting
• Design and deliver dashboards in [Power BI / Databricks dashboards — confirm]
• Implement access controls so each client sees only their own data
• Work alongside our platform partner and our in-house developer to agree on data structures and hand over cleanly
• Complete documentation

What we're looking for

• Hands-on Databricks experience — SQL warehouse, Unity Catalog, medallion-style modelling
• Strong SQL and dimensional modelling; dbt experience welcome
• Experience building multi-tenant or client-facing reporting, including row-level security
• Comfortable working with sensitive data under UK GDPR
• Able to work independently and talk directly to non-technical stakeholders
• Nice to have UK healthcare, insurance or claims data experience
• Azure (Data Factory, Blob Storage, Entra ID)
• Power BI [if that's the front end]

Practicalities

Initially around [2 days per week for 3 months], with genuine scope to extend.

Ideally based in Birmingham but remote optional.
