Who we are:

Redkite helps businesses to unlock value from their data.

We work in close partnership with senior business leaders to provide end-to-end, full stack data expertise from strategy to design to build. We help their high-potential organisations to set up their data to enable better, faster decision-making and accelerated performance.

These partners range from industry-leading public companies to innovative, high-growth start-ups. They cover industries like retail, media, consumer packaged goods, and gaming. We solve some of their hardest problems, accelerating their growth and adding directly to their bottom line.

Our team:

We’re a team of product managers, analysts, data architects, data engineers, operations experts, data governance specialists and developers. We have a range of backgrounds spanning top consultancies, hyper-growth companies, and data functions in large, consumer-oriented organisations.

We’re growing fast and want excellent people to join our team and grow with us. You can find out more about Redkite on our homepage and more about our people and culture on our careers page.

What you’ll do:

Business Intelligence Analysts at Redkite are responsible for producing high-quality and high-impact analytical work for clients. You will work as part of a small Redkite delivery team and often be semi-embedded within a client team as well.

Your will bring a mix of skills, such as:

Non-technical

• Business insight: The ability to understand complex business processes and break down fuzzy requirements into actionable segments
• Stakeholder influence: The ability to clearly communicate your work and provide confidence to drive change in a business

Technical

• SQL/Python: The ability to design and implement well-designed scripts. These should follow industry best practice and be easily scalable and human readable
• Data visualisation: The ability to use modern BI tools to design actionable and insightful reporting
• Data modelling: The ability to design well structured tables that are at the correct grain and structured for widespread use (i.e. using Kimball modelling)
• Software engineering mindset: The ability to automate tasks and work to deploy production-standard code (with unit testing, continuous integration, versioning etc.)

At heart, you’ll be a curious problem-solver – you love to understand how something works and take equal enjoyment in finding and explaining how to impact this. You’ll also have a blend of scientific rigour to solve problems matched with an 80/20 mindset to prioritise which solution path to take.

The founders, Henry Crawford and Jon Tippell, firmly believe that continual training is vital to Redkite’s growth, so will ensure that you’re well supported and set up to succeed.

• A results-oriented mindset with an eye for detail and a passion for data
• Confident and concise communication skills, with the ability to drive alignment, collaboration and efficiency within teams
• Comfort with some travel to clients
