About The Role

We are looking for a Data Analyst to join our Digital Defence Services team following continuous growth and success. Within Digital Defence Services, we are a critical partner to the UK Ministry of Defence in their adoption of secure digital solutions that enable multi-domain integration and data exploitation, which provides the advantage to those who serve and protect us. Positioned within a thriving Digital Defence Services Business Unit and part of a wider vibrant Security Consulting Community from across other sectors, you will be supported in the role to learn and develop, with clear pathways defined for your career progression in the organisation.

Our people are what differentiates us; they are resourceful, innovative and dedicated. We have a mix of generalists and specialists and recognise that this diversity contributes to our success. We recognise the benefits of forming teams from a mix of disciplines, which allows us to come up with cutting-edge, high-quality solutions. Our breadth of work across the public sector provides diverse opportunities for our people to develop their careers in new areas and with new clients.

As a Data Analyst, You Will

  • Analyse complex, large-scale datasets – including temporal and relational data – to identify patterns, detect anomalies, and uncover actionable insights.
  • Build and maintain interactive dashboards to visualise key metrics and support decision-making.
  • Work closely with customers to understand their business requirements and translate them into effective data solutions and visualisations.
  • Present clear, concise insights and recommendations to technical and non-technical audiences.
  • Develop and document queries, scripts, and reports for recurring and ad-hoc analysis.
  • Take an analytical lead by developing a deep understanding of our data holdings and proactively driving the evolution of analytical support across the customer.
  • Support continuous improvement of data models, processes, and data governance practices.

About You

  • You have proven experience in data analysis or a related role, preferably within a customer-facing environment.
  • You are proficient in Python for data analysis, using libraries such as pandas, NumPy, and Matplotlib to manipulate data and uncover insights effectively.
  • You have hands-on experience with graph databases like Neo4j, allowing you to explore and analyse complex data relationships.
  • You are comfortable building and maintaining dashboards using OpenSearch or comparable visualisation tools, helping teams monitor and interpret key metrics.
  • Your SQL skills are strong, and you are familiar with working in relational database environments to extract, transform, and analyse data efficiently.
  • Communication is one of your strengths – you can break down complex analytical concepts into clear, actionable insights that resonate with non-technical stakeholders.
  • You understand the importance of data quality, governance, and privacy, ensuring that your analyses respect these critical considerations.
  • You bring a proactive mindset, taking ownership of your analytical projects and driving them forward independently while collaborating effectively with your team.

Due to the nature of our business and requirements of this role, you will need to hold a MoD/Partner DV and be a UK National.
