Career-Defining Data Analyst Opportunity: Powering a FinTech Scale-Up's Credit Strategy

Are you a proactive, highly proficient Data Analyst ready to step into a pivotal role and drive real-time business decisions?

An award-winning, high-growth FinTech collective is seeking an ambitious analyst to join their Credit Risk team. Backed by major UK finance investors, this is an opportunity to fill a critical resource gap, directly influence strategic operations, and define your career trajectory in a meritocratic, flexible environment.

The Opportunity: Influence and Impact

This isn't just a standard entry-level role. We are looking for a self-starter who can quickly become the go to data expert for the business, sitting primarily within Credit Risk but functioning as a shared resource supporting diverse stakeholders, especially the high growth Originations teams.

Your Core Focus Will Be:

SQL Data Mastery: Spend most of your time autonomously handling a diverse range of ad-hoc data requests (80-90% SQL-based) to support rapid business needs.
Business Enablement: Support all originations, including volume analysis, new product launches, and ensuring data quality and availability across the platform.
Actionable Insight Generation: Build and maintain reports and dashboards to help stakeholders self-serve and investigate critical data anomalies.

Essential skills and Experience:

SQL Proficiency is Paramount: 1-2 years of practical, day-to-day experience using SQL in a professional capacity. You must be ready to hit the ground running.
Quantitative Background: A top-class university degree with a strong quantitative component.
Visualisation Skills: Proven experience building reports and dashboards using any modern visualisation tool (e.g., Tableau, Power BI, QuickSight).
Adaptable & Agile: You thrive on variety, are comfortable switching between multiple small tasks quickly, and prefer a fast-paced environment over single, long-term projects.
Proactive Self-Starter: You actively seek answers, propose solutions, and are results-driven.

Desirable skills:

Experience with SAS and/or Python is beneficial.
Prior background in Financial Services, Consumer Finance, or Retail Banking.
Knowledge of Cloud-based databases (e.g., Redshift/Azure) or automation tools (e.g., Airflow).
