This sense of purpose motivates us to deliver to the highest standards in an environment that is collaborative, supportive and engaging. Attracting and retaining the best talent is key in delivering to our audiences. We want our people to thrive in an environment that values their output.

Meet the team

  • Establish and maintain suitable data warehousing solutions that can scale and handle increasingly complex data analytics requirements.
  • Lead the building of efficient data pipelines, populating complex data sets and ensuring high quality, accurate and up-to-date data is available for embedded analytics teams to use.
  • Work with product teams and software development teams to ensure data analytics requirements are adequately represented in the software development lifecycle.
About you:
  • A bachelor's degree or master's degree in Computer Science or related field, or equivalent experience in the data engineering field with 1-3 years of that in a leadership role.
  • Experience with the implementation of data governance in a complex organisation.
  • Experience with complex, high volume, multi-dimensional data, as well as data models based on unstructured and structured data sets.
  • Experience with the design and implementation of large and complex data warehouses and data pipelines.
  • Strong leadership, communication and interpersonal skills.
  • Excellent strategic thinking, analytical and problem-solving skills.
  • Excellent influencing and stakeholder management skills, and ability to effectively build and maintain relationships.
