Business Intelligence Analyst (Adult Social Care)

About Us and the Role

We are looking to recruit an experienced and enthusiastic Business Intelligence Analyst to join Warwickshire County Council’s Business Intelligence Team.

This is an exciting opportunity to join a Business Intelligence team that provides a critical function to the council, ensuring that we can make evidence-based decisions, can understand what we are doing well and where we can do better. The role will help to deliver the team’s work programme through the analysis, interpretation and innovative reporting of both contextual and service data and will also contribute to consultation and engagement activities. You will be fundamental to ensuring that senior management and commissioners have the best intelligence available to them to support decision making and service delivery, allowing the effective targeting of resources within a challenging financial environment.

The successful candidate will be based in the Adult Social Care team which is part of the Business Intelligence function.

The Business Intelligence Analyst’s role will focus on providing insight to operational and strategic commissioning colleagues – working with them directly to understand what they need to know, what the questions they have are and providing the answers to help them make decisions.

We are looking for someone who has both the technical aptitude to work with the software applications we use, and also the ability to engage with customers, build relationships and help to turn data into insight.

The workload is extremely varied - you will help to plan, evaluate and troubleshoot projects, develop regular monitoring products, contribute to and sometimes lead statutory reporting processes, and share your knowledge and expertise across the BI team and colleagues across adult social care. You will have the chance to work with colleagues across the health and social care system, bringing together intelligence from partner organisations to provide tangible benefits to the people we serve.

You will have access to the technology and the data you’ll need to do the best job possible; we use the Microsoft suite of tools and subscribe to a number of datasets that allow us to provide the insight required to support evidence-based practice. Training is provided where necessary and proactive learning and development positively encouraged.

You will also have flexibility around where and when you work, including regular time at our Shire Hall offices in the heart of Warwick. These offices have recently been reconfigured to allow both face-to-face collaboration and virtual working, providing an excellent working environment.

Working for the Business Intelligence Service you’ll be part of a friendly and supportive team who look out for each other, we’ll give you the support and encouragement you need to succeed and help others around you – because we know a job done well, is a job done together.

So, if you’re someone who is prepared to get stuck in, who wants to do the best job possible, who approaches everything with passion and purpose, then we want you to work for us. You’ll be able to apply your knowledge and abilities in a place that matters to people and communities. And simply put, you’ll enjoy working here because of that.
