The Role

  • Translate complex business requirements into practical, production-ready data solutions
  • Work closely with founders and senior stakeholders to shape data strategy and delivery
  • Contribute to data architecture, modelling and engineering best practice across the team
  • Troubleshoot pipeline, warehouse and data quality issues, driving improvements through to resolution
  • Support the development of analytical products that turn complex datasets into commercial insight
  • Take ownership of projects from initial requirements through to delivery and ongoing optimisation

  • Genuine ownership across products and client data projects
  • Clear progression within a growing, well-backed company
  • Modern Soho office with some flexibility on working pattern

Requirements

  • Hands-on experience building data pipelines, warehouses or related infrastructure
  • Background in Data Analysis with progression into Data Engineering, or technical data consulting experience
  • Commercial or consulting experience and confidence engaging stakeholders
  • STEM degree, ideally Mathematics, Physics or Engineering, at 2:1 or above

Experience with some of the following would be beneficial:
