Job Description

A short-term insurer in Epping needs dashboards people trust and numbers that add up. You'll work with a small crew, so being easy to work with matters as much as skill.

The work is in Epping, Western Cape, so you'll need a reliable way to get there every day.

What your day looks like

  • Mask or remove personal information in data sets under POPIA
  • Meet business users to turn their questions into report requirements
  • Check data quality and trace odd numbers back to the source
  • Present findings to managers in plain language with clear charts
  • Build ETL pipelines in SSIS, Azure Data Factory or Python
  • Build simple forecasting and segmentation models in Python or R
  • Automate weekly reports that used to take hours in Excel

What you need

  • Hands-on Power BI, Tableau or a similar tool
  • Able to explain what the numbers mean, not just show them
  • At least 2 years in a data or reporting role (not needed for graduate posts)
  • Degree in statistics, maths, computer science, economics or a related field
  • Advanced Excel

What you get

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