Job overview
The Business Intelligence Team plays a pivotal role at the heart of the organisation, turning data into insight and insight into action. We lead in capturing high‑quality performance information from across the organisation and transforming it into meaningful intelligence that empowers managers to deliver outstanding services.
We don’t just provide data, we help people understand it. By supporting managers to interpret their performance reports, we enable them to make confident, evidence‑based decisions that enhance service quality and improve outcomes for the individuals and communities we serve.
We ensure all statutory and contractual reporting is delivered accurately and on time, meeting the expectations of internal teams as well as external stakeholders such as commissioners. Our work strengthens transparency, drives performance, and keeps the organisation accountable to the highest standards.
Business Intelligence will increasingly be of strategic significance, supplying the organisation with the insight required to manage budgets effectively, spot trends, and steer the organisation toward long‑term goals. Our Intelligence helps shape the direction of the organisation, influence future investment, and unlock opportunities for innovation and improvement.
Main duties of the job
• Provide advice and guidance to Service Leads to ensure that they utilise the best data sources in their work, taking into account factors such as proposed use, data relevance, quality, timeliness and completeness.
• Support healthcare services that are undergoing significant change in reporting
• Work effectively with stakeholders to determine their data analysis requirements and to develop plans to meet those needs
• Lead on the design and development of analytical solutions, e.g. benchmark dashboards, to enable self-service analytics for business and clinical users
• Investigate analytical issues within performance monitoring and provide supporting narrative.
• Investigate performance issues and/or non-compliance identified through the contract compliance monitoring process, bringing these to the attention of the Contract Manager as necessary
