Vacancy Requirement:- Data Analyst
Our client makes extensive use of data to provide advice and report to clients. Much of the data we use is held in various databases, most of which have been written internally and are supported by a team of in-house programmers.

Our long term plans for application development seek convergence of these database sources, but in the meantime a need has arisen for a business analyst to take a lead role in providing cross-platform reporting and to take responsibility for maintenance of common data, as well as assisting users with making better use of the data, reports and tools they already have available.

We are a recruitment company and we are currently looking for an experienced Data Business Analyst.

• To regularly analyse data on property and financial databases to identify data gaps and inconsistencies and to implement a planned data audit/maintenance plan
• To carry out consistency checks between our databases and remove redundant data.
• To provide assistance to users in setting up and automating Excel spreadsheets for data collection and analysis
• To act as an in-house beacon of expertise, providing user support for internal applications, Microsoft Excel and possibly Microsoft Access
• Maintenance of data collection templates to ensure they remain consistent with any data or validation changes in their associated applications
• To assimilate third party data and structure it for upload into our databases. This will at times include the need to populate incomplete data using other database or on-line resources
• To assist with testing of application changes, particularly in respect of report outputs
• To identify application or reporting changes that will aid convergence and to document these as high level development requirement specifications, as well as liaising directly with the software developers when any of these requirements are taken forward
• To assist in the preparation and maintenance of user guides for our internally developed applications
• To provide project specific resource where an instruction is received that has a significant data mobilisation requirement
• To assist at clients’ year ends in preparing or checking financial reports
• To assist the research team with periodic data collection and analysis exercises
• To input into business process mapping and to assist with any quality assurance monitoring to which this may give rise
• Participate in the monitoring of application helpdesk accounts, providing some first line support where appropriate.

Personal attributes:
• Extensive knowledge of Microsoft Excel is essential, particularly with regard to analysis and manipulation of large quantities of numerical and text data - to include confident use of lookups; nested IF statements and other logical tests; conditional sum array formulas; pivot tables; macros; financial, statistical, text and date functions
• Absolute attention to detail and the ability to assimilate and examine large data sets is also fundamental to the role
• Familiarity with Microsoft Word, particularly styles & formatting, mail merges, incorporation of pictures etc. to produce professional looking user guides
• A good knowledge of UK administrative geography is important as much of the data relates to address information (GIS experience is not required, knowledge of Royal Mail PAF and/or BS7666 would be a benefit)
• Some understanding of basic book-keeping principles may be helpful
• A good understanding of Microsoft Access is desirable as is basic experience of simple SQL queries and knowledge of relational database structures
• A knowledge of VBA beyond simple macro recording is desirable
• Experience of using external data links, for example via ODBC drivers, would be helpful.
• An ability to share knowledge with users, providing them with guidance on use of Excel or other applications, that will aid them perform their roles more effectively and the ability to explain concepts clearly and simply
• The ability to prioritise competing demands and to keep users informed of realistic delivery timescales
• A professional approach to work and to communications, including the ability to provide explanations and express ideas clearly over the telephone or in writing, to both members of the firm and to the firm’s clients
• Adherence to good data security practices, both for back-up and confidentiality reasons.
• Ability to work flexibly and across project/departments where workload dictates, with a focus on project delivery.
