- Ensure reports are accurate, consistent, user-friendly and aligned to agreed business definitions.
- Optimise Tableau reports for performance and usability.
- Support the Head of Data Analytics with the delivery of strategic reporting and analytics initiatives.

- Experience working in a commercial, retail, financial services, banking, loyalty, credit, payments or customer analytics environment would be advantageous.
