POWER BI DEVELOPER

Are you a Power BI Developer who genuinely cares about building beautiful, intuitive, high‑impact dashboards? I'm hiring for a Power BI specialist at a major multi‑brand group with a centralised data function that works across digital, creative, technology, and customer‑facing teams. This is a role for someone who lives and breathes Power BI - modelling, DAX, UX, and storytelling. You'll work across a wide range of business areas and stakeholders, translating ambiguous briefs into real, meaningful dashboards that teams actually use. It's a highly visible, design‑centric role where quality really matters. What you'll be doing Designing and building Power BI dashboards to an exceptional standard of visual design and user experience. Developing robust data models using star schema principles, setting up relationships, hierarchies, and optimised structures. Writing efficient, clean DAX - including complex measures and time intelligence. Using Power Query (M) to build transformations and shape data inside Power BI. Establishing and managing consistent design systems, templates, and themes across reports. Leading scoping conversations to translate unclear or ambitious requests into clear dashboard requirements. Producing wireframes and mock‑ups to align design direction prior to build. Auditing and improving existing reports for performance, maintainability, and UX. Documenting models and dashboards clearly for long‑term maintainability. Managing deployments, workspaces, and pipelines in Power BI Service. What you bring Must‑haves: Strong, demonstrable Power BI development experience - you'll need a portfolio or examples of your work. Deep understanding of data modelling, star schema, relationships, and model optimisation. Advanced DAX (complex measures, performance optimisation). Strong Power Query (M) capabilities. Ability to translate complex data into clear, actionable narratives through dashboard structure and design. Confidence in client‑facing or stakeholder‑facing conversations, scoping requirements, and pushing back constructively. Experience building maintainable, scalable, and high‑quality Power BI solutions. Nice to have: Experience with Tableau or Qlik. Familiarity with DAX Studio or Tabular Editor. Understanding of accessibility best practice in dashboard design. Note: The business does not require marketing analytics experience for this version of the role - the priority is powerful Power BI development and design expertise, not domain experience.
