Across government, the role of data analysis has become central to how organisations understand problems, shape policy and deliver high-quality digital and operational services. As data volumes grow and analytical tools become more sophisticated, there is an increasing need for strong analytical leadership to ensure that data is used effectively, ethically and in ways that drive real organisational impact. Modern data analysis is no longer confined to reporting; it is fundamental to enabling insight-driven decision making, improving services and supporting strategic transformation.
At Ofgem, data plays a critical role in delivering our mission to protect energy consumers and support the transition to a more secure, fair and sustainable energy system. As we continue to develop our digital, data and technology capabilities, the ability to harness data effectively is key to understanding the energy market, informing regulatory decisions and enabling innovation. Within the Digital, Data and Security Services (DDSS) directorate, we are investing in our data capability to embed consistent, high-quality analytical practices across the organisation.
As a Senior Data Analyst, you will lead the delivery of high-impact analytical work, supporting both operational and strategic decision making. You will work across teams and business areas to design, build and deliver data products that provide clear, actionable insights, while ensuring that data is managed, prepared and used in line with best practice and governance standards.
This is a hands-on and influential role, combining strong technical expertise with the ability to engage and influence a wide range of stakeholders. You will play a leading role in advancing Ofgems data maturity, promoting self-service analytics and helping to build a more data-driven culture across the organisation.
