You'll be focused on the delivery of a core health intelligence service, ensuring the Medical team and the wider BHF have access to a wide range of high-quality health intelligence assets. This includes the management of our statistics sign-off process and a supporting role across the core team in managing, prioritising, and reactively responding to queries.

Working arrangements
This is a blended role, where your work will be dual located between your home and our London Office.
The use of our office spaces is driven in part by your role and the activities you need to do. This may vary from time to time, so you must be prepared to work in a flexible way to unlock your best work for our cause. Most of our colleagues on blended contracts can expect to spend some time in their office each week, on average.
About you
Educated to degree level in a quantitative field (e.g. medical statistics, epidemiology, health services research, biomedical research or similar), or with equivalent experience, you'll have a strong understanding of statistical methodologies and health and care data (specific expertise in heart and circulatory health data, and knowledge management techniques is desirable).
You'll have previous experience working in an analytical role, ideally in a health-related organisation, and will have experience working with a range of data manipulation, analysis and visualisation tools (e.g. R, PowerBI, Tableau).
With confident influencing skills, you'll be able to communicate data analysis to individuals at all levels. You will also be able to collaborate with others with ease, able to make connections between data and information, strategy, systems, and ways of working.
