Junior Business Intelligence Developer (Qlik) – Harrogate
About the Role
This is a highly collaborative role that offers significant hands‑on learning, close mentorship and regular interaction with experienced colleagues. To make sure you get the very best support and development, the role requires 4 days per week in the Harrogate office and 1 day working from home. This balance is essential to ensure you can learn effectively, build relationships and progress quickly.
Please note that, due to business requirements, we are only able to consider applicants who already have the right to work in the UK (no sponsorship now or in future) and who live within a reasonable daily commute of Harrogate.
We are looking for a junior Business Intelligence Developer with a genuine interest in data, reporting and how information helps a business make better decisions. This role is ideal for someone early in their BI career who wants hands‑on experience, close mentorship and the chance to develop quickly within a supportive and structured environment.
You will work closely with stakeholders across the business to understand reporting needs, translate those into clear BI solutions and help shape how data is presented and consumed. Rather than just maintaining dashboards, you will contribute to improving how reporting rules are defined, managed and evolved, supporting both day‑to‑day insight and wider change initiatives.
This is a business that believes strongly in developing its people. There is a proven track record of internal progression and structured development, supported by established graduate and apprenticeship programmes. For the right person, there may also be future opportunities to progress their learning through Level 4 or Level 5 qualifications in data or AI, depending on performance and business needs.

* Contributing within an Agile environment, managing your workload in line with team priorities
* Providing support for BI‑related issues and contributing to continuous improvement of reporting processes

* An analytical mindset with a willingness to learn and develop new technical skills
* Confident communicator who can engage with stakeholders at different levels
* A collaborative approach and desire to learn from more experienced colleagues in an office environment
* Degree or equivalent in a relevant subject such as Data, Computer Science, Mathematics or similar is beneficial but not essential
