Job Description

A short-term insurer in Stellenbosch needs dashboards people trust and numbers that add up. This role rewards consistency more than flash.

This post is Stellenbosch-based, with most of your time spent at a short-term insurer. Hours are mostly Monday to Friday, with the odd Saturday in busy months.

What you'll actually do

  • Build ETL pipelines in SSIS, Azure Data Factory or Python
  • Meet business users to turn their questions into report requirements
  • Keep a data dictionary so everyone uses the same definitions
  • Present findings to managers in plain language with clear charts
  • Write SQL to pull, join and clean data from several sources
  • Mask or remove personal information in data sets under POPIA

What you need

  • Careful with sensitive customer data
  • Strong SQL, including joins, window functions and CTEs
  • Degree in statistics, maths, computer science, economics or a related field
  • Advanced Excel
  • Able to explain what the numbers mean, not just show them

Extra points for

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

What's in it for you

  • Annual bonus tied to company performance
  • Latest laptop with extra screen
