As part of the Data and Insight team in our Quality and Insight function, this role will work on a wide variety of projects to help colleagues make sense of data sets and develop findings leading to more effective decisions and impactful information. Using statistical analysis, data visualisation and storytelling as tools, this role will play a crucial role in giving our colleagues the insight required for success. This is an exciting role which offers a wide variety of experiences and the ability to underpin high-quality, evidence-based decisions.
  
About you 

You are someone who can dive into data and emerge with jargon free findings for those who may not know what a bivariate analysis is. You present engaging and relevant findings in both the written and oral form, no matter who the audience. You have all the analysis to hand but value simplicity when it comes to delivering focused messages that stick.

You understand the importance of accuracy and consistency alongside engaging content. Your curiosity and enthusiasm lead you to explore new techniques and seek continuous improvement. You can work independently and collaboratively, willing to lend a hand and knowing when to ask for help. 

You have great skills and ideas in data analysis and some experiences in languages such as SQL, R and Python. You are undaunted by large, complex datasets. You can direct your own work but know how to keep business colleagues and technical colleagues engaged as part of a broader project team.  

Our employees work hard every day to make a true difference in people's lives. We are proud to support them with a range of benefits, recognition and many options for working agilely. All contributing to a strong work life balance. We also have various learning programmes to support you in your development and help you grow to realise your potential and shape a career with Alzheimer's Society.
