## About the Role

We are looking for a versatile Data Professional to join our growing Data capability. We recognise that data roles don't always fit neatly into a single category. You may consider yourself a Data Analyst, Data Scientist or Data Engineer, or have experience spanning several of these areas. We are therefore more interested in your underlying data skills, problem-solving ability and potential than your current job title., The role provides scope to develop across the wider data lifecycle rather than being restricted to one narrow specialism. We're interested in people with strong capability in some areas and an appetite to develop in others., * Strong analytical and problem-solving ability.

 * Experience working with data to solve real-world problems.
 * Ability to interrogate, manipulate and interpret datasets.
 * Good understanding of data structures and data quality.
 * Ability to communicate technical concepts clearly.
 * Strong stakeholder and team-working skills.
 * Curiosity and willingness to learn new technologies and techniques.
 * A Degree in Data Science, Mathematics, Statistics, Computer Science, Engineering or another relevant discipline, or equivalent experience.
 * Experience working in a data, analytical, scientific, engineering or similar technical role.
 * Experience of delivering within projects or programmes would be advantageous.
 * Defence, government or other highly regulated-sector experience would be advantageous but is not essential.
 * Ability to obtain and maintain SC clearance.

You don't need to tick every box. We are building a diverse data capability and are interested in people with strengths across different parts of the data lifecycle. Whether your background is primarily analysis, data science or engineering, we're interested in what you can bring to the team and where you'd like to develop next.
