Role
Who you are
- Proven experience in writing optimised, modular SQL (Intermediate - advanced proficiency)

- Solid expertise in building reusable LookML code within Looker and the ability to independently lead medium-to-large analytical projects—from selecting the right tool for the job (e.g. Looker vs Mixpanel) to providing accurate estimations and hitting delivery timelines
- A track record of aligning analysis with business needs and translating complex datasets into actionable insights that influence stakeholder decisions,
- Ideally you will have experience in regulated utility or a similar high-volume consumer industry

- UW skills and competencies:
- Prioritisation
- Collaboration
- Communication

- Project Management
- Not sure you meet all the requirements? Let us decide! Research shows that women and members of other underrepresented groups tend not to apply for jobs if they think they may not meet every qualification, when in fact they often do
What the job involves
- As a Data Analyst at Utility Warehouse, you will own the complete "Data-to-Insight" value chain for single projects
- This role combines the technical skills to build production-grade data pipelines with the soft skills to manage stakeholders and drive domain-specific decisions
- You are the core "builder" of the team
- This role marks the transition from implementing to designing
- The defining characteristic of this level is the independent management of the deployment lifecycle
- You will be responsible for ensuring that data transformation logic is not just correct, but reproducible, tested, and version-controlled
- You will not just report on data; you will build and maintain the analytics layer data models and automated pipelines that power our company’s decision-making engine
- You will leverage modern data stack technologies (SQL, BigQuery, Dataform, Looker, Mixpanel) to transform raw data into high-value strategic assets, ensuring scalability and accuracy across business functions
- Analytics Engineering (Dataform/dbt): Build and maintain end-to-end analytics-ready data models in Dataform, independently handling complex logic and transformations
- CI/CD & DevOps (Data version control): Apply version control (through tools like Git & Github) and unit testing practices to analytics models, to ensure data assets are stable, reproducible, and ready for deployment
- Performance Engineering: Write optimised SQL, proactively tuning for performance (cost & runtime) and addressing alerts about data quality
- Ownership: Independently plan and execute medium-to-large requests through to completion; identify and proactively address tech debt
- Actionable Insight: Translate complex data into actionable business insights
- Move beyond "what happened" to explain "why it happened" and recommend "what to do next."
- Dashboards/Reporting: Build visual self-serve dashboards and reports for users to access KPIs / metrics and explore/analyse pre-built data set
- Stakeholder Management: Manage the full request lifecycle
- Actively engage with stakeholders to refine broad requests into clear requirements, providing accurate estimations and delivering within agreed timelines
- Domain Ownership: Develop deep knowledge of a specific domain (e.g. , Marketing, Product, Finance)
- Understand the impact of key metrics on the business and participate in defining team goals based on this knowledge

Salary benchmarks
Our take
Budgeting for a household is no easy task, especially when you've got to keep track of various bills from different providers. That's why Utility Warehouse provides customers with all their home services – including energy, broadband, mobile and insurance – in one simple, monthly bill.
The company says that this all-in-one approach ‘makes budgeting so much easier’ for customers, which is backed up by a strong customer services record. Though it does not advertise heavily, its partners are given incentives to sign up new customers, which has contributed to its impressive growth thus far.
Boasting over 1 million customers across the services they sell, Utility Warehouse is one of the largest energy providers outside the 'Big 6'. Its unique approach, and established footing in the market, should ensure it continues to compete with other challengers as the utilities sector further evolves.
