BI Analyst – Power BI / SQL Wilmslow (3-4 days office-based) // £42,000 - £47,000 We're working with a fast-growing financial planning business that's doing things differently.

Big opportunities to shape things – from refreshing legacy dashboards to building new tools that automate real, manual processes. As the BI Analyst, you'll work across the business, from the finance team to client services, paraplanners, and even marketing, delivering clear, impactful insights. You'll help evolve their Power BI suite (the “Insight Centre”), create best-practice dashboards, and bring curiosity to every conversation. What do you need? Strong Power BI experience (and a real passion for doing it right) SQL skills (basic querying, understanding data structure and relationships) A good handle on data modelling – how things interact, how to apply the right measures An inquisitive mindset – asking “what are we actually trying to answer?” and challenging people at all levels (constructively!) Someone who's collaborative and genuinely cares about culture This isn't just a data role, it's a problem-solving one.
