Your new role
As part of the Data Analytics & AI team, you'll help build and evolve a Snowflake-based data platform.

Your work will enable high-quality reporting, insight generation, and future AI/ML initiatives across the business.

What You'll Do
* Build & Maintain Pipelines: Develop ELT/ETL pipelines using dbt, Python, and orchestration tools. * Work with Snowflake: Design and optimise data models, manage performance, and adopt advanced Snowflake features.
* Ensure Data Quality: Apply governance, security, and compliance standards.
* Collaborate: Support analysts and business teams with clean, structured data for reporting and analytics.
* Monitor & Improve: Implement monitoring, alerting, and cost controls for Snowflake and pipelines.
* Contribute to Best Practices: Help define standards for naming, schema design, and development processes.

What you'll need to succeed

  • Strong hands-on experience with Snowflake, SQL, Python, and Dbt
  • Solid understanding of data modelling, data governance, and cloud platforms (AWS preferred)
  • Experience supporting analytics using BI tools such as Power BI
  • Familiarity with data ingestion tools (e.g. Airbyte, Fivetran)
  • Working knowledge of Git, CI/CD, and modern data engineering practices
