Rate: Up to £435 per day

Clearance: None required

Overview

We’re looking for a Senior Power BI Consultant / Manager to join a growing analytics function, combining hands‑on delivery expertise with team capability building. This is not a pure reporting role – you’ll play a key part in uplifting the team, embedding best practices, and driving long‑term self‑sufficiency, while continuing to deliver high‑quality Power BI solutions.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead end‑to‑end Power BI delivery: from data preparation and modelling through to polished, user‑friendly dashboards
• Coach and mentor analysts through structured training, 1‑2‑1 support, and hands‑on guidance
• Translate technical concepts into clear, accessible guidance for less experienced team members
• Identify capability gaps and define practical upskilling and training approaches
• Provide guidance on migration from Qlik to Power BI (where relevant)
• Champion best practices across:
  • Data modelling
  • DAX development
  • Visual design
  • Governance
• Work independently with stakeholders to identify opportunities for improvement
• Create clear documentation to support knowledge sharing and reuse

Core Experience (Must Have)

• Extensive hands‑on Power BI experience in production environments (end‑to‑end delivery)
• Strong expertise in:
  • Power Query (M) for data transformation
  • DAX, with a focus on scalable, best‑practice development
  • Strong data visualisation and UX skills, producing intuitive, business‑friendly dashboards
  • Working knowledge of Microsoft Fabric and Power BI integration
  • Solid SQL skills for working with underlying data sources
• Proven experience in:
  • Coaching and mentoring technical teams
  • Delivering both structured and ad‑hoc training
  • Excellent communication skills – able to explain complex concepts to non‑technical users
  • Proactive mindset with the ability to identify gaps and drive improvements independently

Desirable Experience

• Exposure to Qlik (QlikView/Qlik Sense) or experience with migration to Power BI
• Experience defining Power BI standards, governance, or capability frameworks
• Experience building custom visuals or advanced dashboard features
