We are looking to strengthen our Anglian Water team with a Data Analyst. You will be based at our Peterborough office with hybrid working available. Responsibilities will include:

Data Collection & Quality

• Identify and advise on data sources to enhance reporting and performance monitoring.

• Collaborate with Performance Team members to clarify data requirements and recommend improvements in data capture.

• Review existing data quality, highlight gaps or inconsistencies, and propose alternative sources or validation approaches.

Data Analysis

• Serve as the data analysis expert within the Performance Team, driving deeper understanding of performance metrics.

• Enhance and develop data analysis tools and methods, ensuring consistency and best practice across the team.

• Translate complex datasets into clear insights that inform action and support continuous improvement.

Data Visualisation & Reporting

• Design, build, modify, and manage dashboards and reports that present key performance indicators in an accessible way.

• Advise on layout and functionality to maximise clarity and value for stakeholders across Programme Management, Planning, Delivery, Commercial, and beyond.

• Lead migration of existing reports to preferred platforms (e.g., Power BI, Excel), ensuring robust governance, version control, and ease of use.

Safer Every Day

• Foster a culture of safety: participate in induction, follow safe working practices, and report near misses.

• Support Health & Safety procedures within your activities, ensuring all data work adheres to organisational policies.

• Contribute to continuous improvement of H&S processes through audit feedback and collaborative initiatives.

Proven experience in data collection, quality review, and analysis. Demonstrable experience building reports and dashboards. A qualification in data analytics (Level 4 or equivalent) is advantageous but not mandatory if you can show relevant experience. Advanced MS Excel skills and proficiency in Power BI or similar dashboard tools. Strong analytical mindset: able to interpret data, spot trends, and draw clear conclusions. Excellent communication and stakeholder management: you can explain insights to technical and non-technical audiences. Self-motivated and accountable: you take ownership of your tasks and pursue continuous learning. Familiarity with SQL or Databricks is desirable but not essential; willingness to develop these skills is key. Keen to learn the business, understand its drivers, and align data work to strategic objectives.
