- Proven experience developing Power BI reports, dashboards and data models.
- Strong skills in DAX and data modelling best practice.
- Experience working with SQL and complex datasets.
- A track record of translating stakeholder requirements into effective reporting solutions.
- The ability to work independently and manage a pipeline of developments.
- Strong communication skills and confidence working with both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
