Are you passionate about turning data into actionable insight and driving transformation across a global business? At Specsavers, we're looking for a Data Business Analyst to join our team, a fantastic opportunity to work at the heart of Data projects and change initiatives that shape the future of customer experience. Imagine being the person who works closely with Data Product Managers, Data Modellers, Architects, Engineers, and Quality Analysts to define and prioritise the product backlog, build robust requirements, and create development ready user stories. You'll be hands on with data analysis, mapping source data landscapes, and collaborating with stakeholders to ensure solutions are fit for purpose and scalable for the long term. You'll thrive in this role if you're proactive, detail-oriented, and comfortable rolling up your sleeves to tackle challenges. Your strong SQL skills and ability to read and interpret engineering code (SQL, Python) will help you explore datasets, profile values, and understand how data is sourced, transformed, and loaded in pipelines. You'll be adept at conducting workshops, interviews, and prototyping sessions to elicit, clarify, and agree requirements, and you'll play a key role in user story elaboration, refinement, and user acceptance testing. What sets you apart is your ability to think conceptually, engage stakeholders, and translate complex business needs into clear, actionable data requirements. You'll bring experience working on data workstreams within large-scale enterprise transformation programmes, such as reporting & analytics, data migration, or MDM and you're comfortable with Agile frameworks, backlog management, and user story decomposition. If you're ready to make a real impact helping Specsavers deliver seamless customer experiences across online and in-store journeys, this is your chance. Join us as a Data Business Analyst and help shape the data foundations that support our mission to change lives through better sight and hearing.
