We are an organisation that has heavily invested in modernising our legacy data estate and are now building on the foundations of a modern Microsoft Fabric/Azure data environment. Our team is growing and focused on developing the next stage of our data capability, with an emphasis on code-led engineering rather than traditional drag-and-drop development.
