Permanent, 37 hours, £37,500 per annum
Are you passionate about data accuracy, insightful analysis, and making a real difference through your work? Ocean Housing Ltd is looking for a talented ICT Data Analyst to join our ICT team and play a vital role in shaping informed decisions across the organisation.
"Turn data into insight. Insight into impact"
This is an exciting opportunity to work in a purpose-driven housing organisation where your analytical skills will directly support transparency, compliance, and better services for our customers and communities.
💼 About the Role
As an ICT Data Analyst, you’ll ensure operational data is accurate, validated, auditable, and accessible, enabling colleagues to confidently analyse trends, meet regulatory requirements, and make evidence‑based decisions. You’ll design insightful reports, dashboards, and visualisations that bring complex data to life and support both strategic and day‑to‑day operations.
You’ll work closely with colleagues across the business, acting as a trusted partner who understands their data needs and delivers clear, timely insights. Data governance, quality assurance, and continuous improvement will be at the heart of everything you do.
🔑 Key Responsibilities
- Validate, cleanse, and prepare datasets to maintain high standards of data quality and integrity
- Analyse historical and operational data to identify trends and actionable insights
- Design and deliver clear reports, dashboards, and visualisations (e.g. using Power BI)
- Apply data governance frameworks and highlight data quality issues for resolution
- Support compliance, transparency, and robust organisational governance
- Collaborate with stakeholders to understand requirements and improve data-driven decision making
- Maintain accurate documentation and support ICT helpdesk activities when required
👤 About You
You’re analytical, curious, and detail‑driven, with the confidence to turn numbers into meaningful stories. You enjoy working collaboratively and explaining data insights in a way that non‑technical audiences can easily understand.
You’ll bring:
- A Level 4 qualification in Data Science, Statistics, Computer Science, or a related discipline
- Strong SQL skills and advanced Excel expertise
- Experience creating reports and dashboards, ideally using Power BI
- A solid understanding of data validation, reporting, and statistical concepts
- Excellent communication, organisation, and problem‑solving skills
- A proactive approach, with a passion for continuous professional development
Experience with scripting languages (such as Python or R), data governance standards, or working in the social housing sector would be an advantage—but not essential.
