As Business Intelligence (BI) Developer you will be responsible for working with Hospice UK’s data to provide insights that support decision-making.

Internally, within Hospice UK, you’ll work with colleagues from different departments to improve how we measure our own performance.

Within Hospice UK the main data sources are our CRM, Website CMS, Grants Management, Finance and HR systems. We also use bespoke data capture forms and databases for specific purposes. 

We’re a small in-house ICT and Data team, supported by 3rd party suppliers.
