Data Analyst

Job Introduction

Dechra is on a journey of significant change, and we're looking for a talented Data Analyst to join our Transformation Office (TO). This is your chance to play a pivotal role in shaping the future of a growing, global organisation.

Why this role matters

As a Data Analyst in our Transformation Office, you'll work alongside the TO Director and senior stakeholders to provide analysis that drives decision-making at the highest level. Your insights will help identify risks, highlight opportunities, and ensure that Dechra's ambitious DART plan delivers real impact.

You won't just crunch numbers - you'll tell the story behind the data, create compelling visuals, and give leaders the information they need to take action. You'll also play a hands-on role in embedding our WAVE platform, the tool that bridges analytics and execution, ensuring data integrity and coaching colleagues on its use.

This is more than an analyst role: it's a chance to directly influence how transformation unfolds across the business.

What you'll be doing

• Deliver regular and ad-hoc data analysis that informs discussions and drives action.
• Perform data modelling and translate complex datasets into clear, engaging insights and visuals for a wide range of stakeholders.
• Partner with business leaders to develop dashboards and reports in WAVE (our transformation system), and coach them to use it effectively.
• Monitor data quality, drive adoption of the platform, and act as guardian of accurate, high-quality information.
• Support DART personal goal achievement analysis, ensuring alignment with business priorities.
• Coordinate meetings, track actions, and keep initiatives moving forward with accountability.

What we're looking for

• Strong Excel skills (advanced formulas, pivot tables, visualisation techniques).
• Confidence in interpreting financial data and understanding how initiatives affect company P&L.
• Excellent communication and presentation skills, with the ability to simplify complexity.
• Strong attention to detail and a proactive mindset.
• Experience building impactful PowerPoint presentations to communicate insights.
• The ability to engage and coach stakeholders at all levels.
• Strong organisational skills - balancing multiple projects and priorities with ease.

Experience with Tableau, Power BI, or other data visualisation tools is a bonus, as is exposure to financial modelling or forecasting techniques.

Why join Dechra?

• Be at the centre of a high-profile business transformation, with direct visibility to senior leaders.
• Work in a collaborative, supportive environment where your insights drive real outcomes.
• Gain experience with WAVE, a cutting-edge transformation platform used by leading global organisations.
• Develop both your technical and business skills in a role that offers genuine career progression.

At Dechra, you'll make a tangible impact from day one. If you're excited about using data to power transformation, we'd love to hear from you.

What we can offer you

• 33 days annual (inclusive of Bank Holidays)
• Holiday purchase scheme
• Healthcare
• Employee Assistance Program
• Life Assurance
• 8% Employer Pension Contribution
• Enhanced Family Leave
• Discounted Pet Food
