The contract is for an initial 3-6 months, offering a competitive daily rate.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Acting as a bridge between finance, IT, and operations - aligning data sets, uncovering insights, and driving informed decision-making.
  • Building scalable, flexible data models to support evolving business needs during systems change.
  • Designing automated dashboards and reporting tools to empower business leaders with real-time, actionable information.
  • Identifying and resolving data quality issues at source, embedding governance improvements in the process.

  • Experience working across teams - finance, tech, or operations - with the ability to communicate clearly and credibly at all levels.
  • A proactive mindset and the confidence to take ownership, drive clarity, and challenge assumptions when needed.
  • Exposure to telecoms, infrastructure, or other data-rich sectors undergoing change would be helpful, but not essential.
  • Immediate or short notice availability, with the flexibility to pick things up quickly and deliver at pace.
