What I'm looking for

Seeking a challenging role that leverages my BI expertise to drive strategic decisions, offer opportunities for growth, and foster innovation in a collaborative environment.

As a Senior BI Developer & Analyst with over 15 years of experience, I specialize in designing, developing, and deploying automated BI solutions that drive business growth. My expertise lies in identifying opportunities and delivering actionable insights that shape strategic decisions.

In my current role at Enjoy Travel Technology, I built a mission-critical BI suite from scratch using Azure pipelines, TSQL, and Power BI. This initiative not only guided business strategy but also automated workflows, leading to a 47% increase in sales volumes and a 28% rise in revenue. I also spearheaded a transformative business optimization team and led the rebranding of our business, including the redesign of our website and mobile app.

Previously, at British Car Auctions (BCA), I led a high-profile project evaluating group assets for securitization, resulting in significant insights for financial strategies. I identified a £6m+ annual revenue recapture system and played a key role in migrating to automated reporting systems using Azure pipelines. My experience also includes roles at Cadept Partnership, Telindus UK, Future-Tech, and ING Car Lease UK, where I developed forecasting tools, automated reporting solutions, and risk management strategies.
