Project Data Analyst (reporting)
Movar is seeking a Senior Data Analyst with strong analytical skills and a builder’s mindset, who is comfortable operating within complex project and programme environments.
You will transform fragmented, multi-source project data into governance-grade reporting outputs that support decision-making across major infrastructure programmes in rail, water, nuclear, and defence.
Working as part of a centralised Reporting-as-a-Service function, you will help replace inconsistent, manual reporting with structured, Smart Core–aligned reporting products—integrating schedule, cost, risk and change into coherent performance narratives.
You will work closely with project controls, data engineering and AI teams to ensure that reporting reflects not just data, but the underlying delivery reality and its implications for programme outcomes.
Core Responsibilities
* Design and maintain Power BI dashboards and reporting products aligned to programme governance cycles and decision forums.
* Extract, clean and model data across planning, cost, risk and change domains, ensuring consistency with Smart Core structures (e.g. WBS/CBS alignment, common identifiers).
* Contribute to the production of standardised reporting packs with consistent KPI definitions, RAG thresholds and integrated performance views.
* Support the transition from fragmented reporting approaches to a centralised reporting service, reducing manual consolidation effort.
* Develop insight-led reporting narratives that explain performance drivers, highlight anomalies and surface emerging risks.
* Work with project controls teams to reconcile data inconsistencies and ensure reporting reflects true delivery position, not just system outputs.
* Support automation of reporting pipelines and pack generation using Power BI, Azure and emerging Smart Core datasets.
* Collaborate with AI and innovation teams to integrate predictive signals and automated commentary into reporting outputs.
* Engage with clients and delivery teams to understand how reporting is used in practice and adapt outputs accordingly.
* Mentor junior analysts in both technical delivery and project-context awareness.
What You’ll Bring
* Great amount of experience in data analytics, business intelligence, or project/programme environments (desirable).
* Strong Power BI, SQL and Azure ecosystem capability.
* Ability to translate data into clear, decision-oriented narratives, not just visualisations.
* Appreciation of how data is used within project controls disciplines (planning, cost, risk, change, reporting).
* Comfort working with imperfect, evolving datasets and improving them iteratively.
* Ability to operate within structured governance environments and tight reporting cadences.
* Curiosity about how data supports real-world delivery outcomes, not just analytical correctness.
* A mindset aligned with Movar’s IDEAL values.
