£80,000 - £85,000

Data Analyst Team Lead - Leadership / Analysis / SQL - Remote First

Are you the kind of Data Analyst Team Lead who can take a team who is currently in a messy, noisy, slightly chaotic data landscape and wrap a proper layer of structure around it?

Maybe even enjoy it a bit?

Right now, the business has huge amounts of data coming in from multiple parts of the organisation, but everything is pretty siloed.

Different teams. Different feeds. Different standards. Nothing centralised yet.

Reporting directly into the Architect, this will be the Team Lead of a team of 6 Data Analysts of various levels sitting under you.

Primarily remote, the office is based in London, and you ll need to be able to get there on occasion (once a month or so). You must be UK based for this position

What we are looking for:

  • Solid Data Analyst Team Lead or Data Analyst Management experience
  • Deep experience as a Data Analyst (this position is about 70% Data Analysis, 30% Leadership)
  • Strong legacy tech experience SPSS, SAS, Tableau etc (this is all tech that they are looking to consolidate into a more modern Databricks platform)
  • Strong leadership skills (this is very much a leadership position helping to drive the team etc, not a management/process type position)

Advantageous skills include experience with:

  • Databricks

If you want a role where you can genuinely shape a data ecosystem and build something future ready rather than just maintain someone else s blueprint, this is worth a conversation.

We’re looking for a Junior UAT & Infrastructure Test Analyst to support testing across business applications and core infrastructure platforms. This is a hands-on role for someone early in their testing career who wants broad exposure, real responsibility, and a fast learning curve - not just clicking buttons and logging tickets.

Key Responsibilities

UAT & Business Testing

  • Support delivery of UAT cycles across multiple projects

  • Support automation and tooling initiatives where relevant

Required Experience

  • 1-3 years experience in software testing or UAT
  • Basic understanding of:
  • IT infrastructure
  • Cloud platforms (AWS / Azure / GCP - exposure is fine)
  • Networks, servers, or application platforms
  • Experience using defect and test management tools (e.g. Jira, Xray, Zephyr, TestRail)
  • Strong attention to detail and a structured mindset
  • Clear communication skills and confidence working with stakeholders

Nice to Have (But Not Essential)

  • Exposure to infrastructure or technical testing
  • Basic automation knowledge
  • SQL or API testing exposure

What’s On Offer

  • Broad exposure across business + technical testing
  • Fast development path into Senior Test Analyst / Test Lead
  • Hybrid working - real flexibility, not “remote but actually office”
  • Strong training, mentoring, and career progression

If you’re an inquisitive, technically-minded tester who thrives in diverse environments and enjoys getting into the details that make systems stable and scalable - we’d love to hear from you.
