Are you passionate about turning complex data into meaningful insights that drive real business impact? An established Housing Association in the West Midlands are looking for a dynamic Data Analyst to join their growing Business Intelligence team. You’ll play a key role in transforming raw data into actionable intelligence, supporting data-led decision making, and shaping performance reporting across a purpose-driven organisation. The company is currently at the start of their exciting 5 year strategy plan where data is one of the five pillars so you will have the chance to play a big part in shaping this pillar.

Deliver innovative, high-quality reports and analytics that support strategic and operational decision making.
Develop and maintain robust data models and reusable assets to ensure consistency and scalability across business areas.
Collaborate with teams across the organisation to understand data needs, offer expert advice, and embed a culture of data curiosity.
Help define and implement the technical approach for BI reporting, ensuring solutions are efficient, scalable and user-friendly.
Troubleshoot complex data quality issues and contribute to continuous improvement initiatives in data governance and reporting standards.
Train colleagues on how to interpret and get the most out of dashboards and analytics tools.
Design and maintain business insights reports, including streamlining and improving existing outputs.
Translate complex data into easy-to-understand visualisations using tools like Power BI and DAX.
Support regulatory reporting by performing accurate data extractions and submissions.
Apply statistical techniques (e.g. regression analysis) to identify trends and generate insights.
Collaborate with internal and external stakeholders, including software providers and user groups, to stay on top of best practices and emerging tools.

YOU

The ideal Data Analyst for Business Intelligence and Insights will have prior experience of:

Strong technical skills in SQL, Excel, Power BI, DAX, and ideally Python or R.
Experience with cloud data platforms such as Snowflake or Databricks.
Deep understanding of databases, ETL frameworks, data models, and the Microsoft BI Stack.
Excellent communication skills, with the ability to explain complex data to non-technical audiences.
A curious mindset, a knack for problem-solving, and the confidence to challenge the status quo.
Experience working with customer and/or asset data, and familiarity with performance frameworks in regulated sectors (e.g. social housing) is a plus.
A methodical and analytical approach to problem solving.
Proven ability to manage competing priorities and deliver to deadlines.
A collaborative, open mindset, with a commitment to continuous learning and innovation.
An understanding of the value of data in driving organisational improvement and transformation.
