Join to apply for the BI Analyst role at Universities Superannuation Scheme (Ltd)
When you join USS, the size and scale of our pension scheme means you will have numerous opportunities to learn and develop your career.
Given our size, you'll have real autonomy and influence as you collaborate closely with a wide-ranging team of experts.
Our office is a vibrant place to work, and we offer flexibility of office/homeworking due to our hybrid model.
About the role
In your role as BI Analyst, you will make a meaningful and valued contribution from the outset. This role will provide a great opportunity to be responsible for developing and maintaining advanced data models, dashboards, and reports using Microsoft Power BI.
The role requires strong technical expertise in DAX, Power Query (M), and SQL to transform complex datasets into insightful visualisations that support business decision-making.
You will work with data from multiple sources - both cloud-based and on-premise - and ensure the accuracy, performance, and scalability of reporting solutions. Familiarity with pensions data is highly desirable, as you will be expected to handle sensitive and regulated information with precision and compliance.
A key objective of this role is to lead the transition of reporting solutions into an end-user ownership model. This will involve designing intuitive, self-service analytics tools, providing documentation and training, and empowering business users to independently explore and interpret data.
The successful candidate will demonstrate a strong understanding of data governance, ETL processes, and stakeholder engagement, ensuring that solutions are not only technically robust but also sustainable and user-friendly.

As a trusted part of the IT, you will:
* Design, develop, and maintain interactive dashboards and reports using Power BI Desktop and Power BI Service.
* Collaborate with stakeholders to gather requirements and translate them into effective data visualisations.
* Build and optimise SQL queries, stored procedures, and views to support reporting needs.
* Integrate data from multiple sources such as SQL Server, Excel, SharePoint, and cloud-based platforms.
* Ensure data quality, consistency, and governance across all reporting solutions.
* Support the development and maintenance of semantic data models and DAX measures.
* Participate in the attestation and governance processes as outlined in the Power BI Framework and Software Development Policy.
* Provide training and support to business users to effectively hand over the Power BI solutions for ongoing user ownership & management.
* Work collaboratively with stakeholders to ensure reporting solutions meet requirements.
* Engage with report consumers to assess and define the best approach to build value-added reports.
* Produce the reporting solution in line with a consumer ownership model to enable stakeholder handover for ongoing management.
