SUMMARY:
My client is looking for a junior, technically curious BI consultant who enjoys working with data and solving real problems.
This is a genuine entryâtoâgrowth role for someone who wants to build strong SQL and reporting foundations.
If you’re analytical, detailâdriven, and want a clear path into BI or data careers, this role is a solid launchpad.

POSITION INFO:

My client is growing their Business Intelligence team and is looking for a Junior BI Consultant who wants to develop into a wellârounded BI professional. This role is designed for someone early in their career who already has solid SQL fundamentals and wants handsâon experience with real reporting and data analysis work.
You’ll work under guidance from senior team members while owning clearly defined data and reporting tasks. The focus is on building strong technical habits, accuracy, and professional communication, not rushing you into responsibility you’re not ready for.

What you’ll be doing:
Writing, testing, and optimizing SQL queries for reporting and analysis
Extracting and manipulating data from SQL Server databases
Assisting with report development using Excel, SSRS, and/or Power BI
Performing data validation, checks, and basic reconciliations
Investigating and resolving reporting or data issues
Clearly documenting queries and reporting logic
Supporting internal teams with dataârelated questions
This is not a “justâexportâtoâExcel” role. You’ll learn how data is structured, validated, and trusted.

Skills & Experience:
Minimum 1–3 years’ experience in a SQL, reporting, or dataârelated role
(or a strong academic background with practical SQL exposure)
Solid working knowledge of SQL (joins, grouping, subqueries, aggregations)
Understanding of relational databases
Strong Excel skills
Clear written and verbal communication skills in English
Logical thinker with strong attention to detail
Professional, reliable, and comfortable following structured processes

Qualification:
Relevant degree or diploma beneficial but not mandatory. Practical SQL ability is prioritized.
