Data Analyst

Are you ready to lead where data governance meets cloud-native innovation, shaping scalable solutions in hybrid environments?

Can you transform complex data models into actionable insights using Python, AWS, and open standards like XML, JSON, and YAML?

Do you want to make a lasting impact by driving agile delivery, mastering metadata, and elevating data quality across the enterprise?

Are you a data-driven technologist passionate about cloud-native solutions and modern integration patterns? We’re seeking someone with strong expertise in relational databases, SQL, and ETL pipelines, capable of working closely with architects to support design of target data architectures. You’ll bring solid experience in data modelling (UML, Object-Oriented, ER) and fluency in open standards like XML, JSON, and YAML. With hands-on skills in Python, VS Code, and open-source tools, you’ll thrive in hybrid cloud environments—ideally with AWS at the core.

Beyond technical mastery, you’ll be a champion of agile delivery, CI/CD practices, and modern data governance. You understand the nuances of master data management, metadata control, sensitivity classification, and stakeholder ownership. You’ll be expected to distil complex modelling outputs into clear, consumable documentation, and continuously evolve your skillset with emerging technologies like R, Terraform, Markdown, and Mermaid JS. If you thrive in a fast-paced, collaborative environment and are ready to shape the future of data, we want to hear from you.

What you will be doing  

In this role, you’ll be mapping out how data flows across the organisation—from where it’s captured to how it’s transferred and transformed across different domains. You’ll take the lead on building and maintaining our data catalogue and data dictionary, helping support the Data Protection Officer and strengthening how we manage data overall. You’ll work closely with architects in agile feature teams to support data movement, migration, and integration needs, and you’ll create key documentation (like IFDDs) to keep our data flows auditable and transparent.

You’ll also get stuck into building data quality pipelines and toolchains, working with data stewards and owners to tackle any issues before they become problems. Whether it’s cleaning and managing data for insight or contributing to governance forums like the Owners Committee and Stewards Forum, you’ll help make sure good data practice is embedded across the charity. You’ll also support the wider data architecture by helping to shape our governance processes, policies, and standards—keeping data reliable, accessible, and impactful.

About you

You’ve got a solid grounding in relational databases, SQL, and data integration, and you’re confident designing data models using techniques like UML and entity relationships. You’re familiar with cloud-native technologies (ideally AWS), and understand how data moves in complex, hybrid environments.

You’re hands-on, curious, and always looking for better ways to work with data. You know your way around Python and open-source tools, and you’re comfortable with formats like JSON and XML. You enjoy collaborating in agile teams, translating technical detail into clear, useful outputs, and you’re not afraid to roll up your sleeves when needed. Most of all, you're excited by the opportunity to help shape a truly data-led future.
