Description
The Opportunity
Footasylum is a leading UK-based retailer specialising in streetwear and sportswear, committed to delivering innovative and trend-setting products to our customers, with a strong focus on digital transformation and data-driven decision-making.
We’re looking for a Business Intelligence Developer to join our Data team on a 6 month Contract. The role supports all teams across Footasylum, ranging from Stores and Merch to Profit Protection and the Warehouse. We also maintain several datasets on Power BI which are used by the business via connections to Excel sheets to allow for detailed ad hoc analysis. Having recently migrated our Data tech stack at Footasylum on to Azure Databricks and Power BI from SQL Server and SSRS, we have a large suite of reports which surface the data that the business needs to answer their key questions.
The Team
The data team is an enabling team and as such it is important to note that we are a key function for all other teams across the business. We consist of two teams – Business Intelligence Developers and Data Engineering – who work closely alongside each other from end to end. We design solutions together and share best practice. Within the teams we recognise individual skillsets and encourage knowledge sharing sessions and self-development.
What You Will Do
At Footasylum we see reports as ever-evolving projects, and strive to produce intuitive, interactive documents which provide one version of the truth. As a team, alongside supporting the rest of Footasylum with projects and new developments we have several internal goals which you will help us achieve:

- Great analytical skills in analysing new data sets and understanding their value
- Good experience with Git

- Great understanding of analysis cube models and incremental refresh policies
- Good experience with Tabular Editor, DAX Studio and ALM Toolkit
- A love for problem solving
- Confidence in bringing new ideas to the team
- Ability to support more junior team members with technical training, show and tell sessions and peer programming
- Good knowledge of data governance, data protection, and GDPR
- Experience managing multiple priorities in a fast-paced environment alongside evolving the data tech stack and practices
We are one of the leading omni-channel retailers across the UK, but more than that we are a brilliant place to work. We value you and your development. We have loads of examples of people moving upwards, across to other departments and given training to excel their personal and professional skills. Our aim is to create a fun environment, where your success is paramount to ours and you are given the right tools, support and platform to achieve your goals.
Diversity
We recognise and value the importance of diversity to help make sure we have lots of different perspectives when we are building services to customers and the wider business. This is great news for our business. Diversity for us is also, importantly, about building happy teams full of people that want to learn and want to be inspired by each other and our different experiences and backgrounds.
