Data Analyst

Data Analyst - Glasgow, Hybrid   Bright Purple are working with a well-established, growing organisation based in Glasgow who are looking for a commercially minded Data Analyst to join their team.

• You'll be producing commercial and financial analysis that genuinely informs decision-making at every level of the business. That means taking business questions and turning them into clear, actionable insight, not just reporting for reporting's sake.
• You'll track performance against budgets, forecasts and targets, flag where profitability or efficiency could be improved, and respond to ad-hoc requests from management with speed and accuracy.
• You'll also have a hand in designing and maintaining the reporting infrastructure itself, moving the team away from manual processes and towards smarter, more consistent ways of working with data.

  Key Skills:

• Strong analytical skills with a commercial or financial focus
• Hands-on experience with Power BI and Microsoft Fabric 
• Ability to translate ambiguous business questions into clear analytical outputs
