Overview

The Data Analyst supports the delivery of data activities within a large-scale enterprise transformation programme, including the transition from SAP ECC to new platforms across HR, finance, procurement, and expenses.

The role focuses on analysing data, identifying and structuring data issues, and supporting their resolution. Working with both business stakeholders and technical teams, the Data Analyst translates data findings into clear insights, helping the programme understand data challenges and make informed decisions.

The role operates with a high degree of independence on defined tasks, while working alongside Senior Data Analysts on more complex issues.

The role operates within a large-scale transformation programme moving from SAP ECC to multiple new platforms. The environment is complex and fast-moving, requiring a pragmatic approach to analysing and improving data without unnecessary over-analysis.

Analyse legacy data (e.g. SAP ECC) across multiple functional domains to identify data quality issues such as completeness, accuracy, and consistency

Investigate data anomalies and support root cause analysis

Structure findings into clear problem statements, including issue, cause, and business impact

Manage and progress data quality issues through to resolution, maintaining clear documentation and tracking

Data Preparation, Validation & Migration Support

Execute data cleansing activities in collaboration with business stakeholders, including resolving duplicate, obsolete, or inaccurate data

Support preparation of data for migration into target systems

Validate data extracts, transformations, and mappings

Participate in migration activities, including test cycles and mock migrations, and resolve data discrepancies

Stakeholder Engagement & Delivery Support

Work directly with business stakeholders to gather requirements, clarify issues, and support resolution of data challenges

Collaborate with IT teams and external delivery partners (e.g. systems integrators) to investigate and resolve data issues

Act as a reliable point of contact for data-related queries within defined areas

Data Mapping, Testing & Reporting Awareness

Support definition and validation of data mapping for integrations and system transitions

Execute data testing, reconciliation, and validation activities pre- and post-migration

Understand how data supports reporting and analytics, identifying potential downstream impacts of data changes

Key Deliverables

Analysed and documented data issues (including cause and impact)

Contributions to cleansed and migration-ready datasets

Data validation, testing, and reconciliation outputs

Data mapping support documentation

Accurate tracking and progression of data issues

Carry out other duties, commensurate with the grade and remit of the post
