1What this role really is

You'll be the person digging into our company's data, finding the 'why' behind the numbers, and helping our internal teams make smarter decisions. Think of yourself as an in-house detective, but your clues are in spreadsheets and databases. You'll turn raw data into clear, actionable stories that genuinely help the business.

2What you'd actually use

The tools this job runs on, and how well you'd need to know each one.

SQL (PostgreSQL, MS SQL Server)Intermediate

Writing complex queries with JOINs, GROUP BY, and window functions to extract and transform data for specific analytical tasks.

Python (pandas, NumPy)Basic

Using pandas for data cleaning, transformation, and exploratory analysis; running pre-written scripts for basic statistical tests or data manipulation.

Tableau / Power BIIntermediate

Building interactive dashboards from prepared data sources, effectively using filters, calculated fields, and standard chart types to visualise insights.

Microsoft ExcelAdvanced

Proficiently using PivotTables, Power Query, and complex formulas (e.g., INDEX/MATCH, array formulas) to build and audit small-scale business models and perform ad-hoc analysis.

Miro / FigJamUser

Participating in brainstorming sessions, contributing to frameworks like journey maps or fishbone diagrams, and collaborating on project plans.

Snowflake / DatabricksAwareness

Understanding how to connect to and query data from these enterprise platforms, even if you're not deeply embedded in their architecture.

Confluence / NotionContributor

Documenting your own analysis, methodology, and findings clearly on project pages, ensuring our knowledge base is up-to-date and useful.

3What you get to decide, and how that grows

Power in a job isn't your title. It's what you're allowed to decide. Here's how it grows as you move up.

The choiceComing inWhere you are nowThe step above
Analytical MethodologyFollows prescribed methodology; seeks approval for any deviation.Chooses appropriate methodology for routine problems; consults on novel approaches.Designs and validates new methodologies; sets standards for team.
Data Source SelectionUses approved data sources as directed by supervisor.Identifies and evaluates potential data sources; seeks confirmation for new sources.Defines and vets authoritative data sources for projects; establishes data governance.
Client CommunicationDrafts communications for review; supervisor handles direct client interaction.Communicates directly with project-level internal clients; escalates sensitive issues.Leads client meetings and presentations; manages key stakeholder relationships.
Tool/Software SelectionUses tools as assigned; learns new tools under guidance.Selects appropriate tools from approved stack for specific tasks; proposes new tools for review.Evaluates and recommends new tools for team adoption; influences tech stack strategy.

4How you'll be judged

The scoreboard, honestly: the hard targets, how often each one is actually looked at, and the quiet human signals that never make it onto a dashboard.

Analysis Accuracy
The precision and correctness of your data pulls, calculations, and statistical outputs.
Target · >99% accuracy on data pulls and calculations

If you're pulling customer data for a churn analysis, we'd expect the numbers to perfectly match the source system, without any missed records or calculation errors.

Task Turnaround Time
How quickly you complete assigned analytical tasks and ad-hoc requests.
Target · Ad-hoc requests completed within a 48-hour SLA (Service Level Agreement)

An urgent request for a sales region breakdown comes in on Monday, and you deliver the initial analysis by Wednesday afternoon.

Reporting Efficiency & Automation
Your contribution to automating routine data extraction or reporting processes.
Target · Automate at least 2 manual reporting tasks per quarter

You spot that a weekly marketing performance report is manually compiled. You then build a Python script to pull the data and generate the report automatically, saving 3 hours a week.

Project Deliverable Quality
The overall quality of your outputs, including clarity of visualisations and strength of recommendations.
Target · Average project feedback score of >4/5 from internal clients

After presenting your analysis on product pricing, the Product Director tells your manager that your slides were 'incredibly clear and easy to follow, making the decision much simpler'.

Stakeholder Engagement & Clarity
How effectively you communicate your findings and manage expectations with internal clients.
  • Internal clients consistently understand your analysis and recommendations. They feel heard and informed throughout the project. You're able to simplify complex data concepts for non-technical audiences, making sure they grasp the 'so what?'.
Documentation & Knowledge Sharing
The quality and completeness of your project documentation and contributions to our internal knowledge base.
  • Your project notes, code comments, and methodology documents are clear, concise, and easy for others to pick up. You regularly contribute to our Confluence pages, making sure insights and processes are reusable.
Proactive Problem Solving
Your ability to identify potential data issues or analytical roadblocks early and propose solutions.
  • You flag a potential data quality issue before it impacts your analysis. You suggest an alternative approach when a requested analysis proves unfeasible, rather than just hitting a wall. You don't wait to be told what to do when you hit a snag.
Learning & Development
Your commitment to improving your technical skills and business understanding.
  • You regularly seek feedback on your work, pick up new tools or techniques independently, and show a genuine interest in understanding the nuances of the business areas you're analysing. You're not afraid to ask 'stupid questions' to deepen your knowledge.

5Would you like it

The honest version. What people enjoy, and what grinds them down.

What people enjoy
Solving Complex Puzzles

You get a real buzz from taking a messy, ambiguous business problem and systematically breaking it down, then using data to find the answer. It's like a giant Sudoku, but with real-world impact.

You're given a vague brief about 'customer churn'. You'll love figuring out the right questions to ask, the data to pull, and how to model it to pinpoint the actual drivers.

Seeing Tangible Impact

You're not just happy with delivering a report; you want to see your recommendations actually get implemented and make a difference. Knowing your analysis led to a better decision or saved the company money is what gets you up in the morning.

Your analysis on marketing spend optimisation leads to a £500K reallocation that demonstrably improves campaign ROI. That's a huge win for you.

Continuous Learning & Growth

You're always keen to pick up new analytical techniques, learn a new tool, or dive deep into a different part of the business. The idea of stagnation is a real turn-off; you thrive on expanding your knowledge and capabilities.

You take the initiative to learn a new Python library for time series forecasting because you know it'll be useful for an upcoming project, even if it's not explicitly required yet.

What frustrates people
  • The Data Scavenger Hunt: The data you desperately need exists, but it's locked in a legacy system, the documentation is missing, and the only person who understood it retired two years ago. Good luck.
  • Politically Motivated Analysis: Sometimes, you'll be implicitly (or explicitly) asked to 'slice the data differently' to support a powerful stakeholder's pet project. This forces a conflict between your objectivity and political survival, which isn't fun.
  • The 'Data Janitor' Reality: You'll quickly realise that 80% of your time is spent on the unglamorous work of cleaning, joining, and wrangling messy, inconsistent data. Only 20% is actual analysis, and that can be a real shock.
  • The Moving Goalpost: Your project sponsor changes the core business question two weeks into a three-week project, effectively invalidating all your hard work. The deadline, however, remains exactly the same.
  • Explaining the Obvious (to you): You'll patiently explain the difference between correlation and causation, or why an average can be misleading, to a room of senior executives for the third time in a month. It can be exhausting.
  • Ownership Without Authority: You'll be held accountable for delivering a critical insight but have no direct authority over the data engineering teams you rely on for access, pipelines, and support. It's a common tightrope walk.
What this role does not give you
  • A perfectly predictable day-to-day routine – expect variety, for better or worse.
  • Being a 'pure' data scientist focused solely on complex model building; you're more of a business problem solver.
  • A role where you only deal with clean, perfectly structured data; you'll be getting your hands dirty.
  • The ability to make strategic decisions without strong data-backed recommendations and stakeholder buy-in.

6Who you work with

This role directly impacts the quality and speed of strategic decision-making across the organisation. Your insights help various departments understand their performance, identify opportunities, and mitigate risks. Essentially, you're helping us all work smarter, not just harder, by grounding decisions in solid evidence.

Inside the business
  • Project Managers (Internal Consulting)
  • Business Unit Leads (e.g., Marketing, Sales, Operations)
  • Data Engineering Team
  • Finance Business Partners
  • Product Owners

7What you need before you start

Not a wish list. The things you would be expected to already have.

  • You'll need at least 2 years of hands-on experience in a data analysis, business intelligence, or similar analytical role.
  • A proven track record of using SQL to extract and manipulate data from relational databases.
  • Experience building dashboards and visualisations in tools like Tableau or Power BI.
  • Demonstrable experience in structuring business problems and communicating insights clearly to non-technical audiences.
  • A solid understanding of basic statistical concepts and how to apply them in a business context.

8What to practise next

Where the job is going, and what to do about it starting this week.

Statistical Modelling & Experimentation

As our business becomes more data-driven, the demand for robust A/B testing, causal inference, and predictive analytics will only grow. Moving beyond descriptive analysis to truly understand 'what will happen' and 'why' is crucial.

Regression analysis (linear, logistic) · Hypothesis testing and p-values · Causal inference techniques (e.g., difference-in-differences) · Time series forecasting (ARIMA, Prophet)

  • This week: Refresh your knowledge on basic statistics and hypothesis testing (e.g., Khan Academy, online courses).
  • This month: Apply a simple linear regression model in Python to a business problem (e.g., predicting sales based on marketing spend).
  • Month 2: Read up on A/B testing best practices and critically evaluate a past company experiment.
  • Month 3: Take an advanced course on statistical modelling for business in Python or R.

Quick win: When you see a new metric, don't just report it. Ask: 'What factors might *cause* this to change?' and 'How would we *test* that hypothesis?'

Data Architecture & Governance Principles

As you get more senior, you'll need to understand not just how to *use* data, but how it's *structured* and *managed* across the organisation. This knowledge allows you to influence data strategy and ensure data quality at the source.

Data warehousing concepts (star schema, snowflake schema) · ETL/ELT processes · Data quality frameworks · Master Data Management (MDM)

  • This week: Schedule a coffee chat with someone from our Data Engineering team to understand their workflow.
  • This month: Read an introductory book or online course on data warehousing and ETL concepts.
  • Month 2: Map out the data lineage for one of your most frequently used datasets – where does it come from, and how is it transformed?
  • Month 3: Proactively identify a data quality issue in a source system and propose a solution to the relevant team.

Quick win: Next time you're pulling data, don't just grab it. Ask: 'Where does this data *originate*? Who *owns* it? How often is it *updated*?'

9Staying current once you are in

What people here do to keep up
  • Regularly attending industry webinars and virtual conferences on data analytics, business intelligence, or internal consulting best practices.
  • Participating in online courses or bootcamps to deepen your skills in Python, SQL, or advanced statistical modelling.
  • Reading relevant industry publications, blogs, or books to stay current with emerging trends and methodologies.
  • Actively seeking feedback on your analytical work and presentations, then applying that feedback to improve.
  • Contributing to internal knowledge-sharing sessions or presenting on a new tool/technique you've learned.

10How the AI economy is changing work like this

Before we ask anything of you, here's what we can already say about AI and work of this kind:

The new skill this role is being asked for: Prompt Engineering & LLM Integration

Frankly, competitors are already using tools like ChatGPT and Claude to draft reports in 10 minutes that used to take 2 hours. Analysts who figure this out will significantly outproduce their peers. It's not just a nice-to-have anymore; it's a competitive edge.

We'll only ever tell you what we can actually back up. No hype, no scare tactics.

The ten Future Fluencies

Zavmo analysis

The credential is what you can do today. These are what keep you valuable.

A qualification proves you can do the job as it's defined today. These ten are what decide whether you're still the obvious person for it in five years. They're the capabilities employers are now writing into senior roles faster than people are learning them. Zavmo weaves them through whatever you study, so you come out with both: the credential and the fluency.

The highlighted ones are the Fluencies your role leans on hardest, from how Data Insights Consultant is actually changing. In about two minutes, the free confidence check asks where you stand on each of the ten. That's the whole check, and it's what makes the plan yours rather than generic.

Where it leads

12The team that's yours

No two people are taught the same way. This is one-to-one, not one-to-many.

Zavmo is a hyper-personalised AI learning platform. Twelve virtual tutors, each with a different way of teaching, and one orchestration agent that picks the right one for the moment. So every single lesson is shaped around you, your role, and the way you learn. Not a course everyone sits through. A conversation built for you, and no one else.

…and nine more, matched to you after your first chat. Meet all twelve

Start free and meet yours

13What it feels like

A conversation, not a course

Because your tutor knows your role, your projects and your last session, learning sounds like this. And it's different for every single person:

Practical Data ScienceLevel 4

Applied to your work in Data Insights Consultant

The objective of this unit is to enable learners to apply statistical and machine learning techniques to solve data science problems. Learners will gain practical skills in regression analysis, forecasting, model creation and tuning, natural language processing, and data mining to extract valuable insights from data.

One to one, not one to many

No two people run this the same way

A course is written once and handed to everyone. This is assembled around you, and keeps changing as it learns you. Five things it reads, and what each one changes.

  1. Your actual work Every lesson is taught against a live piece of your own work, not a worked example from a textbook.
  2. What you already know The first conversation finds your starting point, so you skip what you can already do and spend the time on what you cannot.
  3. The conditions you learn under Not a learning-styles quiz. The evidence does not support those. The dimensions the research does back, read once and used to shape the plan.
  4. How far you got last time It picks up mid-thought. The tutor knows what you said, what you struggled with, and what it asked you to try.
  5. Which tutor suits the moment Twelve of them, each for a different kind of thinking. The one who walks you through a first idea is not the one who stress-tests it.

See how you learn, free. Eight questions, no sign-up. A directional taster; the diagnostic inside Zavmo goes deeper and keeps adapting.

Data Insights Consultant is a start, not a ceiling. Each step below asks for new skills and hands back more autonomy.

  1. Senior Data Insights Consultant

    2-3 years as a Data Insights Consultant

    You'll move from owning specific workstreams to leading entire analytical projects, often guiding junior team members. Your stakeholder interactions will become more senior, and you'll have more autonomy in defining the analytical approach.

    • Designing complex analytical solutions end-to-end.
    • Leading client workshops to define analytical requirements.
    • Advanced statistical modelling and experimentation design.
    • Deep expertise in specific business domains (e.g., Marketing Analytics, Supply Chain Optimisation).
Working with AI on the job

Working with AI

Where AI is starting to help

Let's be real, a big chunk of a Data Insights Consultant's day can be spent on repetitive tasks. Imagine getting that time back to focus on the truly interesting, high-impact analysis. That's where AI comes in.

We're not talking about replacing your job; we're talking about giving you a serious upgrade. Our internal AI Hub is packed with tools and guides specifically designed to make your analytical workflow smoother, faster, and frankly, a lot more fun. Think of AI as your super-efficient, always-on assistant.

Automated Data Dictionary Creation

Fed up with manually documenting cryptic database column names? Use our AI tool to scan database schemas and sample data. It'll auto-generate plain English descriptions (e.g., 'CUST_LST_TRN_DT' becomes 'Date of customer's last transaction') and even flag potential data quality issues. This saves you 4-6 hours of tedious discovery per new dataset.

Hypothesis Generation Engine

Struggling to figure out where to start with a new problem? Feed a problem statement (like 'Investigate Q3 customer churn') and a dataset summary into our LLM. It'll instantly spit out 10-15 potential, testable hypotheses (e.g., 'Hypothesis: Churn is higher for customers who haven't contacted support in 6 months'). This cuts down 2-3 hours of initial brainstorming per project.

Internal Knowledge Synthesizer

Stop reinventing the wheel! Our RAG model, trained on all our internal SharePoint, Confluence, and past project archives, can answer complex questions in seconds. Ask it, 'Summarise previous findings on our loyalty program's effectiveness in APAC,' and get an instant, sourced summary. That's 5-10 hours of searching for prior work, gone.

Executive Summary & Narrative Drafter

After your analysis is done, the painful part is often wordsmithing that executive summary. Feed your key findings, charts, and data points into an LLM with a prompt like, 'You're a BCG consultant. Draft a one-page executive summary for the CFO, following the pyramid principle.' This can save you 2-4 hours of painful slide-crafting per presentation.

The honest bit

You’ve started things before

Most of them were built for a room full of people who aren’t you. A cohort moves on whether or not your week allowed it, and by the third week the thing you’re behind on becomes the reason you stop opening it.

There’s no cohort here, and no timetable to fall behind. Before anything starts, Zavmo asks when you’re sharpest and how long you can realistically sit down for, then builds the sessions around those answers. A bad fortnight changes your pace. It doesn’t put you behind.

And you only pay once you start learning. Searching and planning are free, and you can cancel any time — so the cost of finding out is an afternoon, not a year.

What it costs

Less than one coaching session. Every month.

A single career-coaching hour costs more than a month of this, and it ends when the hour does. Zavmo doesn't. It's £70 a month, about £2.30 a day, for a companion that knows a Data Insights Consultant, works on the job you actually do, and keeps going at your pace rather than a timetable's.

  • Searching and planning stay free. You only pay when you start learning.
  • Your credits are yours. Regulated, and they don't vanish when a subscription ends.
  • Cancel any time and billing stops. No notice period, no minimum term.

Your path, personalised

You have the map. Walking it is the part we do together.

This route runs to 10 national skill standards. That is a real journey.

Zavmo shapes a learning experience as unique as you are. It fits how you learn, your pace and the work you already do. Every step stays benchmarked to recognised national standards. That’s the plan for becoming a Data Insights Consultant: personal to you, and it still counts. The first steps are free.
