Are you passionate about turning data into action and building a truly data-driven culture?

We're looking for a Data Intelligence Partner to help accelerate Yorkshire Building Society's journey to becoming a truly data-driven organisation.

This isn't a traditional reporting role. You'll partner with business teams to unlock the value of data, champion self-serve analytics, and help colleagues use insight to make smarter decisions. You'll play a key role in driving adoption of Power BI, building data capability across the organisation, and embedding a culture where data informs decision-making at every level.

This is a hybrid role, a mix of working from home plus time in our central Leeds & Bradford offices.

About the role

As Data Intelligence Partner, you'll help shape how data is used across YBS by -

  • Driving adoption of Power BI and our self-serve analytics strategy.

  • Supporting the migration from legacy reporting tools to our modern enterprise data platform.

  • Delivering the Data Academy and building data capability across the organisation.

  • Designing and developing high-quality dashboards, reporting solutions and semantic models.

  • Embedding consistent reporting, governance and MI standards.

  • Acting as the link between business teams and Data & AI to turn business challenges into actionable insight

About you

You'll combine strong technical expertise with the ability to influence, engage and coach others. You’ll bring

  • Strong hands-on experience with Power BI, including dashboard development and semantic modelling

  • Knowledge of Power BI best practice, governance, workspace management and user-centred dashboard design

  • Experience supporting reporting transformation, change initiatives or platform migrations

  • The ability to translate business needs into meaningful data and insight solutions

  • Excellent stakeholder management, facilitation and coaching skills

  • Experience designing and delivering training, learning materials or capability-building initiatives

About Our Benefits

Everyone’s different. That’s why we offer a wide range of benefits and rewards that we think you’ll love – whatever’s important to you, and whatever stage of life you’re at. Such as…

  • Our pension scheme (where you can get up to 11% from us)

  • On target bonus of 7% (with the opportunity to earn up to a maximum 15%)

  • Access to brilliant health benefits

  • Life assurance at 6 times your salary

  • 25 days’ holiday (and the option to buy more)

We know there’s no single right way of working that fits everyone. That’s why we’re not trying to find one. Instead, we’re doing everything we can to make sure that when we’re working flexibly, together and apart, we’re working at our best. We help our colleagues get the most out of work, and take care of themselves, wherever they’re working.

We offer a range of flexible working options without unsocial hours, which can help you find a healthy work-life balance. Whether it’s finishing early for an appointment or fitting your studies and hobbies in around your working hours, we can help make it work for you. We’re happy to talk flexible working and you can reach out to us anytime during the recruitment process to discuss this.

Our commitments to Community and Charity

Ever since we started back in 1864, we’ve had a clear purpose – to do some good in our communities through helping people keep their savings safe. And helping everyone have a place to call home. Today, that purpose is still a huge part of who we are. And every one of our colleagues helps that happen.

We’re committed to volunteering our time, resources, skills and knowledge – more than 50% of colleagues contribute to thousands of volunteer hours every year. And our Charitable Foundation has now donated over £9 million to charities and good causes across the country.
