    Job Description & Person Specification >

    This is an opportunity to join our IT team and would be an ideal first step into Business Intelligence for the right person.

    This is a fixed term post for 24 months.

    Torbay Council is a diverse Unitary Authority comprised of three coastal Devon towns: Torquay, Paignton and Brixham. Residents enjoy easy access to numerous beaches and tourist attractions, as well as having Dartmoor National Park virtually on the doorstep.

    The successful candidate will fulfil an important role within the Council's IT department, supporting the corporate implementation of Microsoft Power BI within the Council by converting existing Crystal Reports to Power BI.

    You will be working closely with Council colleagues at all levels to ensure that Power BI reports and dashboards are delivered in an appropriate, timely and secure manner.
    Practical knowledge of using Microsoft Power BI or basic data analysis in a business environment is not essential as product specific training and mentoring will be available to the successful candidate. Basic knowledge of the SQL language, Crystal Reports, and Microsoft Excel would be of benefit.

    You will be capable of handling conflicting priorities whilst working to tight deadlines and supporting a range of activities.

    In return, a wide range of benefits is available to Torbay Council employees.

    We would welcome applications from outside of normal commuting distance as permanent working from home could be considered.

    This position is for a fixed term of 24 months from the start date.
