Job Description

You'll turn messy data into reports managers actually use, for a telecoms provider in Roodepoort. It's the kind of job where doing the basics well every day gets you noticed.

This post is Roodepoort-based, with most of your time spent at a telecoms provider. Weekend work is on a roster, so you won't be on every weekend.

What your day looks like

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

Must-haves

  • 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

What you get

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

How to apply for this job

  1. Read the "What you need" list above. If you tick most of it, go ahead and apply.
  2. Have the following on hand (clear photos on your phone are fine at first): certification transcripts plus screenshots or a link to a dashboard you built, with real data removed.
  3. Send your details with the form below. Add one or two lines about similar work you've done.
  4. Keep your phone on. Shortlisted applicants are contacted by call, SMS or WhatsApp within 6 working days.

Applying is free. Nobody from How2Apply will ever ask you to pay for anything to get this job.

How to stand out

  • Build one public portfolio dashboard on a South African open data set if you have no work samples to share.
  • Show a before-and-after, like "replaced a 6-hour manual report with an automatic daily dashboard".
