Data Analyst

We are recruiting on behalf of a fast-growing financial services business based in the City of London. Our client is looking for a sharp and curious Data Analyst to join its insight team as the company continues to scale.

This is a broad, hands-on role for someone who is confident working with large datasets, comfortable translating numbers into clear stories, and enjoys seeing their analysis directly shape commercial decisions. You will sit at the heart of the business, working with teams across operations, marketing and product to answer the questions that matter most. The company has invested heavily in its data stack over the past two years, and this role has been created to make sure that investment pays off.

This is an excellent opportunity for an analyst who wants real visibility in a London business where data genuinely drives strategy, and where there is a clear route to senior analyst or analytics manager responsibility as the team grows.

Please note: This role is exclusively recruited for via Consula. Applications made outside of Consula will not be considered and cannot progress. To apply, you must submit your application through the Consula platform.

Location: London

Key Responsibilities

• Build and maintain dashboards and regular reporting used by senior leadership across the business.
• Analyse customer, operational and financial data to identify trends, risks and opportunities.

• Write efficient SQL queries to extract and manipulate data from the company data warehouse.
• Partner with teams across the business to define KPIs and measure performance against them.

• Present findings clearly to non-technical stakeholders, turning complex analysis into simple recommendations.
• Support ad hoc deep-dives into business questions, from pricing to customer retention.

• Help improve data quality and documentation, flagging issues and proposing fixes.
• Contribute to the development of the wider analytics function, including tooling and best practice.

• Mentor and support junior analysts as the team expands.

A Typical Day

You might start the morning checking the overnight data pipelines and reviewing the daily performance dashboard, before joining a stand-up with the insight team to agree priorities. Midday could involve a session with the marketing team to explore campaign performance, followed by an afternoon building a new report in the BI tool or writing SQL for a deep-dive into customer behaviour. Towards the end of the day you might present early findings to a department head or document a new metric definition. No two weeks look the same, and you will have genuine exposure to senior decision-makers.

What We Are Looking For

• Proven experience in a data analyst or similar insight role.
• Strong SQL skills and confidence working with large, messy datasets.

• Experience with a modern BI tool such as Power BI, Tableau or Looker.
• Advanced Excel skills; exposure to Python or R is advantageous but not essential.

• Excellent attention to detail, working accurately to tight deadlines.
• Confident communicator, comfortable presenting to non-technical audiences.

• A proactive approach — someone who spots patterns early and brings recommendations, not just numbers.
• London-based or able to commute to the City office regularly.

What You Can Expect

• Hybrid working with genuine flexibility.
• 28 days' annual leave including bank holidays.

• A high-visibility role in a business that invests in its people and its data.
• Training budget and support for professional development.

• Competitive benefits package including pension and private healthcare.
• A supportive team culture with regular social events and a genuine commitment to work-life balance.
