What I'm looking for

I seek a mid-level analytics role in banking/financial services where I can build automated reporting and pricing models, create executive dashboards, and partner cross-functionally to drive strategy and performance.

I am an Analytics & Reporting professional with five years' experience in the banking sector, specialising in SAS, SQL, Excel and Power BI to translate complex data into clear, actionable business insights. I build automated reporting solutions, pricing models and executive dashboards that inform strategy and drive performance.

At FNB I designed pricing models, automated reconciliation reports (reducing manual effort by 60%), and developed Power BI dashboards adopted by executives for monthly reviews.

I partner with Finance, Product and Risk teams to define KPIs, ensure data integrity and present data narratives to senior stakeholders, and I seek roles where I can continue to scale analytics, automation and stakeholder impact.
