Overview
We're looking for a Senior Power BI Consultant / Manager to join a growing analytics function, combining hands‑on delivery expertise with team capability building.

* Identify capability gaps and define practical upskilling and training approaches
* Provide guidance on migration from Qlik to Power BI (where relevant)
* Champion best practices across:
o Data modelling
o DAX development
o Visual design
o Governance
* Work independently with stakeholders to identify opportunities for improvement
* Create clear documentation to support knowledge sharing and reuse
Core Experience (Must Have)
* Extensive hands‑on Power BI experience in production environments (end‑to‑end delivery)
* Strong expertise in:
o Power Query (M) for data transformation
o DAX, with a focus on scalable, best‑practice development
* Strong data visualisation and UX skills, producing intuitive, business‑friendly dashboards
* Working knowledge of Microsoft Fabric and Power BI integration
* Solid SQL skills for working with underlying data sources
* Proven experience in:
o Coaching and mentoring technical teams
o Delivering both structured and ad‑hoc training
* Excellent communication skills – able to explain complex concepts to non‑technical users
* Proactive mindset with the ability to identify gaps and drive improvements independently
Desirable Experience
* Exposure to Qlik (QlikView/Qlik Sense) or experience with migration to Power BI
* Experience defining Power BI standards, governance, or capability frameworks
* Experience building custom visuals or advanced dashboard features
