Job Description

This is an analytics engineering role for someone who thrives on complex, high value work where the path forward is not always obvious. As an Analytics Engineer in Strategic Projects, you'll sit at the heart of Virgin Media O 's data transformation, turning critical business priorities into trusted, reusable and decision ready data products.

Working closely with Heads of Data, Data Product Owners, BI specialists and partner engineers, you'll challenge weak assumptions, protect standards and share proven patterns back into the wider analytics engineering community so others can move faster without compromising quality.

  • Senior analytics engineering experience delivering data products or strategic data projects
  • Strong hands on SQL and cloud data platform experience, ideally using BigQuery and dbt
