Job Description

Build the SQL, models and dashboards that run the weekly meeting at a retail chain analytics team in Prospecton. You'll work with a small crew, so being easy to work with matters as much as skill.

Location: Prospecton, KwaZulu-Natal. Applicants who already live in the area get looked at first. You'll start with a short induction before working on your own.

What you'll actually do

  • 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
  • Keep a data dictionary so everyone uses the same definitions
  • Present findings to managers in plain language with clear charts
  • Build and maintain Power BI dashboards and data models
  • Build simple forecasting and segmentation models in Python or R

What you need

  • Hands-on Power BI, Tableau or a similar tool
  • Advanced Excel
  • Careful with sensitive customer data
  • Degree in statistics, maths, computer science, economics or a related field

Nice if you have

  • Python with pandas for data wrangling
  • Experience with Databricks, Snowflake or Fabric

What's in it for you

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

How to apply

  1. Read the "What you need" list above. If you tick most of it, go ahead and apply.
  2. Get these ready, because shortlisted people are asked for them straight away: academic record showing statistics or maths modules 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 5 working days.

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

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.
  • Put SQL and your BI tool in the first line of your CV; these are the keywords every data recruiter searches.
