Role
This is not a back-office reporting job.
You’ll be embedded directly into portfolio companies during critical transformation phases — post-acquisition carve-outs, ERP migrations, operational turnarounds. You’ll often be the first analytics hire these businesses have ever had. You’ll build from scratch, work with messy real-world data, and deliver insights that shape Board-level decisions and value creation plans.
You need to be someone who can operate independently, switch contexts fast, and communicate as comfortably with a plant manager as with a PE investment director.
What You’ll Do
- Build dashboards and executive reporting from the ground up at newly acquired companies
- Design scalable data models connecting fragmented ERPs, CRMs, and finance systems
- Deliver financial analyses — P&L deep-dives, margin bridges, forecasting, and run-rate models
- Build ETL/ELT pipelines, establish data quality standards, and assess data maturity
- Leverage AI tools pragmatically to accelerate exploration, prototyping, and automation
- Frame findings for Boards — not just charts, but narrative and recommendation
- Train local teams to sustain reporting independently after your engagement ends
What We’re Looking For
Must-haves
- 5+ years in BI/analytics with strong Power BI experience (DAX, data modelling, Power Query)
- Confident SQL skills across relational databases
- Strong financial literacy — you can read a P&L and spot when numbers don’t reconcile
- Experience with ERP data (SAP, Dynamics, Oracle, or similar)
- Proven ability to work autonomously in ambiguous, fast-moving environments
- Excellent communication skills — Board to plant floor
- Willingness to travel across Europe (and occasionally North America)
Strong advantage
- Python for data analysis, automation, or pipeline development
- Cloud platforms: Azure, Fabric, or Databricks
- PE, consulting, or transformation background
- Active use of AI/LLM tools as a genuine productivity multiplier
What You Get
- A seat on a small, high-impact team where your work directly influences investment decisions
- Genuine variety — new industries, geographies, and business models every engagement
- Full exposure to the PE deal lifecycle and senior leadership across the portfolio
