Senior Data Engineering Consultant

Senior Data Engineering Consultant

Senior Data Engineering Consultant required by a fast-growing boutique consultancy.

This is a superb opportunity to join a specialist Data & Insights Practice and play a key role where you will lead, design and deliver data & BI projects for a range of clients, whilst still applying your hands-on data engineering skills.

What will you do?
Day-to-Day you will utilise your blend of functional and technical skills to design, architect and implement end-to-end reporting, analytics and data solutions for a variety of customers, from large enterprises to small start-ups.

You will lead exciting and complex projects that vary in size and complexity, and you will take ownership of deliveries; gathering requirements, understanding business problems, designing and building solutions, reporting and analysis through to go-live and user training.

This role will provide you with plenty of opportunities to flex your data skills to help harness solutions and solve real problems, and you will get to see the fruits of your labour and the impact the deliveries have on the client.

Responsibilities:

• Engaging with customer stakeholders, forging strong relationships and capturing requirements
• Designing and building technical data solutions using a variety of different data tools and platforms
• Consulting with clients on the best approach and most suitable data technologies
• Leading projects, delivery and documentation
• Using your hands-on technical skills to write code, architect, build and deploy solutions
• Managing and mentoring junior consultants on deliveries

Your skills:
To be considered you must be a Data Consultant or Data Engineer who has strong hands-on technical skills in data modelling / dimensional modelling & architecting BI solutions.

You will bring a track record of leading projects and driving them across all aspects of the lifecycle - not just working as part of a big team writing code. You will possess a strong blend of technical and functional experience, and will have ideally operated within a client-facing/consultancy environment, delivering end-to-end projects successfully.

Your hands-on technical skillset will need to be strong, and you must have experience of data engineering, data modelling, dimensional modelling and designing/architecting BI solutions. You will be adaptable and able to work with different tools and technologies, depending on the client and project needs but will ideally possess strength in some or all of the following:

• MS Fabric stack
• Databricks
• Snowflake
• Azure / AWS
• SQL (advanced)
• Power BI
• Tableau
• Data Modelling including star schema

A general IT architecture and systems integration is also required. Other technologies such as Azure Data Factory, RedShift, Informatica, Qlik or similar are also useful, and you will be open-minded to learning new skills. Experience in Oracle OBIEE and/or Oracle Analytics Cloud is also desirable but not essential.

Excellent communication skills and the ability to engage and manage client stakeholders is also essential.

What is the package?
A competitive salary of £55,000-£70,000 is on offer (depending on your level of experience) as well as an annual bonus of £5k-£7k (paid quarterly), private medical, pension (up to 5% matched) and other perks such as a mobile phone allowance.

This is a hybrid role that offers lots of flexibility to work remotely, but visits to the office in Surrey (close to Heathrow) are required roughly once a week (some weeks less, some weeks more, with possible visits to client sites if requested)

This consultancy has big ambitions to grow, so if you are a Senior Data Engineering Consultant with strong tech skills and want to work alongside some of the industry’s best on some exciting client projects, then this could be the challenge you are seeking!
