Who will I work with?

  • Internal stakeholders across all five IOP Directorates to support consistent data governance and quality
  • IT colleagues including the IT Manager, Infrastructure Engineer, Salesforce Product Manager, AV Technician, and Application Change & Risk Manager
  • Project Managers and governance leads to ensure alignment with strategic objectives, compliance, and risk standards

Ideally, we hope you’ll apply if your skills include: 

Essential Criteria 

  • Strong understanding of data warehousing, ETL/ELT processes, data modelling (Kimball), and Medallion architecture 
  • Demonstrable experience managing vendors delivering hosted or managed data warehouse solutions

How to apply

Alongside your CV, please include a cover letter explaining how you meet the person specification.

How will I be working?

We operate a flexible, trust‑based working model that gives colleagues autonomy over how, when and where they work, while recognising the value of in‑person collaboration. You will be assigned a base office, with hybrid working offered as standard.

You will engage in regular in‑person collaboration with your team (as operational appropriate), as well as with colleagues across the wider organisation, to ensure effective operational alignment and to support our inclusive approach to working.

As an organization we meet in person once a quarter at our Head Office in Kings Cross, London. 

Why join the IOP?

The IOP is the professional body and learned society for physics in the UK and Ireland. As a charity, we’re passionate about increasing public understanding of physics and supporting a diverse and inclusive physics community. 

We’re committed to creating a welcoming and inclusive culture for everyone. If you need any reasonable adjustments during the application or recruitment process, please let us know we’re always happy to help.

Please note whilst we are unable to offer visa sponsorship for this role, we warmly encourage applications from candidates who already have the right to work in the UK and Ireland.
