We are recruiting for a Higher Analytical Officer to join our Data and Insights team.

Higher Analytical Officers are the powerhouse of Data and Insight. They take responsibility for a wide variety of products and outputs, including analysis and dissemination of findings. Although the skills are common across the roles, the exact responsibilities vary according to the work of each team.

Higher Analytical Officers usually specialise in one remit area; schools, further education and skills, early years, or social care.

They develop expertise in the data for their remit area; develop the technical skills to extract, quality assure and analyse it appropriately; develop an understanding of the policy context; and deliver high quality outputs.

In some roles proficiency in SQL, R, Python and advanced Excel skills will be required.

This is a fantastic opportunity to further your experience in Ofsted's well-established team. The post holder will work with high-achieving professionals at all levels, surrounded by a friendly and supportive team.

They will have access to amazing benefits, such as flexible working hours, the Civil Service Pension Scheme, and 32.5 days annual leave + 8 bank holidays.

We offer a hybrid working model, so you may also choose to spend a proportion of time working from home.
