Job Description

A microlender in Atlantis needs dashboards people trust and numbers that add up. It's the kind of job where doing the basics well every day gets you noticed.

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

What your day looks like

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

What you need

  • At least 2 years in a data or reporting role (not needed for graduate posts)
  • Careful with sensitive customer data
  • Strong SQL, including joins, window functions and CTEs
  • Hands-on Power BI, Tableau or a similar tool
  • Able to explain what the numbers mean, not just show them

Helpful, not essential

  • Microsoft PL-300 Power BI Data Analyst certification
  • Python with pandas for data wrangling
  • Industry knowledge in retail, insurance or credit

What's in it for you

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

How to apply

  1. Check you meet the must-haves first; recruiters filter on those before anything else.
  2. Have the following on hand (clear photos on your phone are fine at first): academic record showing statistics or maths modules, screenshots or a link to a dashboard you built, with real data removed plus certification transcripts.
  3. Fill in the short form below with your name and a phone number you actually answer.
  4. If you're shortlisted you'll hear from us within 5 working days, usually by phone.

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

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".
