Data Strategist (Consultant / Senior Consultant)

Who You’ll Work With 

Our D&A teams help organisations of all kinds redefine what’s possible, give shape to the future—and get there. We focus on high-impact projects, meeting our clients where they are to uncover business needs and deliver results. Our teams go beyond the expected to help clients move confidently through ambiguity and risk and drive more transformative outcomes. 

As a modern technology company, we’ve never met a technical challenge we didn’t like. We enable our clients to learn from their data, create incredible digital experiences, and make the most of new technologies. We blend design, engineering, and analytics expertise to build the future. 

What You’ll Do 

As a member of the Data, Analytics & AI team, you will help evangelise and deliver cutting-edge data solutions for our most important customers. You will be delivering on client engagements alongside a project team, where you will be supporting in various aspects of data and analytics: from analytics, ML, product development, visualisation, reporting and strategy.

You are keen to listen and understand, comfortable with ambiguity and able to work in environments with complex stakeholder relationships. 

• Apply fundamental and advanced quantitative methods, including machine learning and statistical modelling, to solve complex business problems and enable data-driven decision making
• Efficiently synthesize large volumes of data, extracting meaningful insights in a structured and programmatic manner.
• Create effective data visualizations to simplify and clarify complex data patterns and trends and explain these complex concepts and business value to non-technical stakeholders.
• Translate data findings into actionable recommendations for decision-making.
• Crafting narratives that resonate with clients and stakeholders and weave data insights into relatable stories that drive understanding and engagement.
• Structuring content logically to guide the audience through complex concepts.

What You’ll Bring 

To excel as a Data & Analytics Consultant within our team, you will need a blend of analytics capabilities, technical acumen and project management. Specifically, you will bring: 

• Minimum 4 years of hands-on experience in data and analytics: machine learning, building visualisations, reporting, analysis, and high-level data architecture.
• Desirable experience working with one hyperscaler (AWS or Azure)
• Experience in any or all of project delivery, analysing complex client needs, understanding customers or helping businesses and teams to perform better
• Excellent communication skills with ability to build and sustain strong and trusted client relationships
• Proven ability to manage and prioritise multiple competing tasks
• Demonstrated ability to be resourceful and learn new concepts quickly
