Job Description

Build the SQL, models and dashboards that run the weekly meeting at a retail chain analytics team in Stellenbosch. This role rewards consistency more than flash.

The site is in Stellenbosch; early starts mean public transport timing matters, so check your route before applying.

What your day looks like

  • Build and maintain Power BI dashboards and data models
  • Meet business users to turn their questions into report requirements
  • Present findings to managers in plain language with clear charts
  • Check data quality and trace odd numbers back to the source
  • Keep a data dictionary so everyone uses the same definitions

Must-haves

  • At least 2 years in a data or reporting role (not needed for graduate posts)
  • Able to explain what the numbers mean, not just show them
  • Careful with sensitive customer data
  • Degree in statistics, maths, computer science, economics or a related field
  • Strong SQL, including joins, window functions and CTEs

What's in it for you

  • Annual bonus tied to company performance
  • Latest laptop with extra screen
  • Paid cloud and BI certifications

Applying, step by step

  1. Read the "What you need" list above. If you tick most of it, go ahead and apply.
  2. Keep copies of these ready to send: screenshots or a link to a dashboard you built, with real data removed, certification transcripts plus academic record showing statistics or maths modules.
  3. Use the form on this page. It takes about two minutes and you don't need to upload anything yet.
  4. Keep your phone on. Shortlisted applicants are contacted by call, SMS or WhatsApp within 7 working days.

Your application joins the How2Apply talent pool for this role, and we put shortlisted people forward to employers hiring in and around Stellenbosch.

How2Apply never charges you to apply, for training, for uniforms or for a "placement fee". If anyone asks you for money, it is a scam.

How to stand out

  • Put SQL and your BI tool in the first line of your CV; these are the keywords every data recruiter searches.
  • Show a before-and-after, like "replaced a 6-hour manual report with an automatic daily dashboard".
