Role description
BI Analyst | Power BI | SQL | Business Intelligence | Hybrid (Sheffield) | 6‑Month Contract | £500 Inside IR35 BI Analyst is needed for a major transformation programme which is rebuilding its reporting capability, and they’re looking for a BI Analyst who can step straight into a fast‑moving environment. The BI Analyst will be part of the Reporting Workstream, shaping how the business captures requirements, designs reporting solutions, and delivers meaningful insights through Power BI and a centralised data platform. BI Analyst role is all about taking ownership of the full reporting lifecycle. As the BI Analyst you will work closely with stakeholders to understand what they need, translate that into clear low‑level designs, and map those requirements back to the right data sources. From there, you’ll sketch out prototypes, define acceptance criteria, and make sure everything is agreed before build begins. The successful BI Analyst will spend plenty of time in the data too — writing SQL to extract, join, and transform data from the data lake, and turning that into high‑quality dashboards or scheduled extracts. Alongside this, you’ll support testing, help diagnose defects, and keep delivery moving in an Agile environment using Azure DevOps to track work, risks, and dependencies. This BI Analyst role is for someone who’s comfortable working independently, managing shifting priorities, and keeping quality high even when deadlines are tight. Clear documentation, strong communication, and the ability to operate confidently across hybrid teams will be key. Contract Details • Location: Sheffield, 2 days onsite • Rate: £500 per day (Inside IR35) • Duration: 6 months rolling, ASAP Start As the BI Analyst you will bring experience delivering end‑to‑end Power BI solutions on large or complex programmes, with a strong track record of gathering detailed reporting requirements and translating them into robust designs. You’ll be confident with SQL, DAX, Power Query, and data modelling, and comfortable working with data lakes or enterprise data platforms. Experience delivering both dashboards and scheduled extracts is important, as is the ability to work at pace and collaborate effectively in Agile teams. Any exposure to ETL tooling like Azure Data Factory or SSIS is a bonus. If you’re interested in this BI Analyst contract, send your CV via this advert or directly to alfie@virtuetech.io.
