## About the Role

* Strong experience with SQL Server, T-SQL, Databricks and Spark SQL in enterprise environments.
 * Proven track record delivering large-scale data migration or modernisation programmes.
 * Expertise in relational, dimensional and analytical data modelling, including modern lakehouse and medallion architectures.
 * Experience performing data profiling, lineage analysis, source-to-target mapping and data quality assessment.
 * Strong understanding of production-grade data platforms, performance optimisation and operational support.
 * Experience migrating SSIS, ETL pipelines, stored procedures and reporting solutions to cloud-based platforms.
 * Exposure to Azure DevOps, Git and CI/CD practices.
 * Experience with Python, PySpark, Power BI or real estate technology platforms would be advantageous.
 * Previous exposure to commercial real estate, investment management or alternative asset management environments is highly desirable.

This role will suit a senior data professional who enjoys solving complex platform challenges and influencing strategic technology decisions rather than simply maintaining existing systems. You'll have the opportunity to shape the target-state architecture, establish best practices and leave a lasting impact on a critical transformation programme within a globally recognised investment business.

If you're interested in helping build the next generation of real estate data capabilities, we'd love to hear from you. Please get in touch or share your CV for a confidential discussion.

## Description

* Lead the assessment and modernisation of legacy SQL Server, ETL and reporting workloads into a Databricks-based architecture.

 * Analyse data lineage, dependencies, business logic and data quality to determine what should be migrated, redesigned or retired.
