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.
