Microsoft Fabric BI Developer – Contract

Guildford, Surrey. Full-time, inside IR35.

Standard 8 is working with a regulated, engineering-led business looking for someone to take full ownership of its data platform and reporting. This is a genuinely hands-on role, sitting across engineering, modelling and reporting, focused on building something robust rather than just surface-level dashboards.

You’ll own Microsoft Fabric end-to-end across Warehouse and Lakehouse, build and manage pipelines using Azure Data Factory and Fabric, and ensure clean, reliable data flows from core systems including SAP. Alongside this, you’ll set standards around storage, performance and governance, while running the reporting environment properly across workspaces, deployments and capacity.

On the reporting side, you’ll design strong Power BI semantic models, deliver dashboards and reports people actually use, and create structured “golden datasets” to support self-service without chaos. You’ll also handle security properly, including RLS and OLS, ensuring everything meets regulatory standards such as GDPR, PCI and ITAR.

They’re looking for someone with solid hands-on experience in Microsoft Fabric, strong data pipeline delivery, and deep Power BI knowledge across modelling, DAX and performance. Experience working with ERP or financial data is important, given the complexity and scrutiny involved.

This suits a proper data engineer who understands reporting, comfortable owning a platform and pushing back when needed, bringing structure and standards into an environment that needs it.

SAP Datasphere, PowerShell or R experience would be useful but not essential. Degree is optional, Power BI certification a bonus, and SC clearance eligibility is required

Where to Advertise Data Engineering Jobs in the UK (2026 Guide)

Where to advertise data engineering jobs UK in 2026: the specialist boards and channels that reach Spark, dbt, Snowflake and platform engineering talent. Data engineers occupy a distinct discipline that sits between software engineering, data science and cloud infrastructure — and the strongest candidates identify firmly with the data engineering community rather than with adjacent roles. General job boards consistently conflate data engineering with data analysis, data science and BI development, producing high application volumes but low candidate quality for specialist pipeline and platform roles. This guide, published by DataEngineeringJobs.co.uk, covers where to advertise data engineering roles in the UK in 2026, how the main platforms compare, what employers should expect to pay, and what the data says about hiring across different role types.

Data Engineering Jobs UK 2026: What to Expect Over the Next 3 Years

Data Engineering Jobs UK 2026: roles, salaries and the trends shaping UK data engineering hiring over the next three years — Spark, dbt, lakehouse and AI. Data engineering has become one of the most strategically important disciplines in the entire technology sector — and one of the most reliably in-demand. Every organisation that wants to use data to make decisions, train AI models, personalise products, manage risk, or understand its customers depends on data engineers to build the infrastructure that makes any of that possible. Without well-designed, reliable data pipelines, the most sophisticated machine learning model is worthless and the most ambitious analytics strategy is undeliverable. That foundational importance has made data engineering hiring remarkably resilient through the technology market corrections of the past few years. Where headcount reductions fell heavily on some engineering disciplines, demand for data engineers held firm — because the work of building and maintaining data infrastructure cannot be deferred in the way that some product development can. The data keeps coming. The pipelines need to work. But the data engineering jobs market of 2026 is not simply a stable version of what it was three years ago. The discipline has undergone a series of architectural shifts — from batch to streaming, from on-premise data warehouses to cloud-native lakehouses, from hand-rolled pipelines to declarative transformation frameworks, and most recently toward AI-augmented data engineering workflows that are beginning to reshape what the role looks like in practice. The employers hiring data engineers today are asking for a meaningfully different skill set than those hiring three years ago. The candidates who will thrive over the next three years are those who understand where the discipline is heading — which architectural patterns are becoming standard, which technologies are defining the modern data stack, and how the definition of a data engineering career is evolving toward a richer intersection of infrastructure, analytics, and AI enablement. This article breaks down what the UK data engineering jobs market is likely to look like through to 2028 — covering the titles emerging right now, the technologies driving employer demand, the skills that will matter most, and how to position your career ahead of the curve.
