The role
Join the Data and Analytics team in Transmission Digital in a hands-on technical role focused on designing, developing and optimising reusable analytical datasets and Power BI semantic models.
Working across our data platform and Power BI, you will consolidate standalone datasets and models into scalable, high-performing analytical products that support multiple reports, self-service analytics and emerging Copilot-enabled experiences.
You will
- Lead the hands-on design and development of reusable analytical datasets and Power BI semantic models for BI and analytics use cases
- Assess and consolidate standalone semantic models, bringing common data, measures and business logic into shared analytical products that support multiple reports and BI use cases
- Translate complex business questions into clear data requirements, definitions, measures and practical Power BI solutions
- Diagnose and resolve Power BI performance issues through effective semantic-model design, DAX optimisation and appropriate storage choices
- Work with Power BI developers, data engineers, architects and business stakeholders to align solutions with agreed standards and take them through testing, documentation, deployment and ongoing improvement
You have
- Extensive hands-on experience developing and optimising complex Power BI solutions, including reusable semantic models rather than only individual reports or dashboards
- Proven experience consolidating multiple standalone datasets or semantic models into shared analytical products supporting several reports, teams or business use cases
- Strong Power BI expertise, including DAX, relationships, storage modes, security and performance optimisation
- Advanced SQL skills and practical experience using a modern data platform for data preparation, transformation and analytical modelling, ideally including Microsoft Fabric
- Strong analytical and stakeholder skills, with the ability to turn ambiguous requirements and fragmented data into scalable, maintainable solutions; experience preparing models for Copilot or natural-language querying would be advantageous
