Job Purpose

At Asset Operations, we believe data is more than just numbers, it's the key to unlocking better performance and delivering meaningful outcomes. As a Insight Lead (Power BI) , you'll play a pivotal role in shaping how we measure, track and improve performance across the business.

Working within an established and forward-thinking team, you'll help design, develop and embed performance metrics, KPIs and reporting solutions that support strategic decision making. Going beyond dashboard creation, you'll work with stakeholders to understand business challenges, define meaningful measures of success and translate complex requirements into data-driven solutions that drive action.

This is an exciting opportunity to influence how performance is understood across Asset Operations, helping teams move beyond reporting what happened to identifying future risks, opportunities and areas for continuous improvement.

What you'll do

• Design, develop and maintain impactful Power BI dashboards and visual reports that enable data-driven decision making.
• Work closely with business stakeholders to understand performance objectives, reporting requirements and desired outcomes.
• Challenge and refine requirements to ensure the right metrics, KPIs and measures are being developed.
• Partner with Data and Governance teams to ensure reporting solutions are built on trusted, high-quality data.
• Develop and embed performance frameworks that support strategic goals across Asset Operations.
• Analyse trends, patterns and anomalies to identify insights, risks and opportunities for improvement.
• Facilitate performance reviews and discussions, helping teams understand the story behind the data and identify appropriate actions.
• Translate complex datasets into clear visualisations and practical recommendations that drive performance.
• Manage multiple stakeholder priorities while delivering reporting solutions in a fast-paced environment.
