About The Role
About Alzheimer's Society - who are we and what’s our mission?
Dementia is the UK’s biggest killer. One in three people born in the UK today will develop dementia in their lifetime.
At Alzheimer’s Society, we’re the UK’s leading dementia charity and the only one to tackle all aspects of dementia by giving help and hope to people living with dementia today and in the future. We give vital support to people facing the most frightening times of their lives, while also funding ground-breaking research and campaigning to make dementia the priority it should be. Together with our supporters, we’re working towards a world where dementia no longer devastates lives. Our values make sure that our focus is clear for the challenges and opportunities ahead and remind us of what we all stand for.
About the opportunity
Are you a skilled Reporting Analyst with a strong background in Power BI?
Do you have a passion for collaborating with stakeholders to create insightful and engaging reports?
Can you navigate complex data environments and help us build a reliable and trusted BI suite?
The Reporting Analyst in our Quality and Insight team plays a transformative role in producing engaging dashboards and reports for our Dementia Support and Partnerships directorate. You will use your data expertise to translate requirements into compelling dashboards. You will work closely with our data teams and alongside the Insight Analyst - together underpinning our ability to make high quality, evidence-based decisions.
About you
You thrive on bringing together data from complex datasets and presenting straightforwardly for varied audiences. You have great technical skills and are equally comfortable enhancing an existing dashboard in Power BI as building one from scratch. You are confident coding in SQL, DAX and M code but value simplicity when solving problems.
You understand the importance of accuracy and consistency of reported data alongside engaging content. You enjoy working with stakeholders to really understand their needs. Your curiosity and enthusiasm lead you to explore new techniques and seek continuous improvement. You can work independently and collaboratively, willing to lend a hand and knowing when to ask for help.
What you’ll focus on:
• Developing insightful Power BI reports and dashboards
• Working closely with our stakeholders and reporting/insight community across a range of projects
• Championing data quality and integrity
