Job Description

Build the SQL, models and dashboards that run the weekly meeting at a telecoms provider in Alberton. Expect to be trusted with real work from your first week.

Home base is a telecoms provider on the Alberton side of Gauteng. Weekend work is on a roster, so you won't be on every weekend.

What your day looks like

  • Mask or remove personal information in data sets under POPIA
  • Build and maintain Power BI dashboards and data models
  • Check data quality and trace odd numbers back to the source
  • Keep a data dictionary so everyone uses the same definitions
  • Write SQL to pull, join and clean data from several sources
  • Build simple forecasting and segmentation models in Python or R
  • Present findings to managers in plain language with clear charts

Must-haves

  • Advanced Excel
  • Careful with sensitive customer data
  • At least 2 years in a data or reporting role (not needed for graduate posts)
  • Strong SQL, including joins, window functions and CTEs
  • Hands-on Power BI, Tableau or a similar tool

Helpful, not essential

  • Experience with Databricks, Snowflake or Fabric
  • Industry knowledge in retail, insurance or credit
  • Python with pandas for data wrangling

On offer

  • Annual bonus tied to company performance
  • Paid cloud and BI certifications
  • Hybrid work with two office days
  • Latest laptop with extra screen
