Job description

A leading marketplace platform is seeking an experienced BI Analyst with strong Looker & LookML expertise to support a major overhaul of their analytics environment. You will work across engineering and insights functions to improve reporting, rebuild Looker models, and introduce governance standards that enable self-serve analytics.

The organisation has recently moved responsibility for ~80 Looker models into the engineering team. Data quality is currently poor, and they need a contractor capable of operating at scale-not someone who has only worked on one or two models. This role will suit someone who has owned or re-architected large Looker ecosystems. What You'll Be Doing

  • Partner with engineering, insights, finance and wider stakeholders to understand reporting needs.
  • Rebuild, optimise and standardise Looker models and dashboards.
  • Improve overall performance, remove ambiguity, and develop self-serve analytics.
  • Establish reporting governance: define what good looks like and drive consistency across teams.
  • Act as a collaborative, hands-on specialist embedded across both insights and engineering.

Requirements

  • Expertise in Looker & LookML (large-scale environments essential)
  • Strong SQL
  • Proven experience improving data models and dashboard performance
  • Ability to work independently while collaborating with technical and non-technical stakeholders

Nice to Have

  • Python
  • Databricks

Soft Skills

  • Highly collaborative
  • Self-sufficient and proactive, * Looker LookML SQL Data Modelling Dashboarding Governance Self-Serve Analytics Performance Optimisation Stakeholder Management BI Strategy
