About this opportunity

This is a key role at the financial heart of LBG, underpinning the long-term sustainability and integrity of the organisation. We're looking for an adaptable and enthusiastic Software Engineer who has a passion for data, data viz, modelling and strategy to join our Insurance, Pensions and Investments (IP&I) platform.

By providing consistent, timely and high-quality data visualisations, you will allow our solution, enterprise and business architecture teams to make well-informed decisions about where we are headed

You'll also support our leadership community in being able to respond quickly to requests across the group, by managing a consistent 'single view of the truth' when it comes to our Architecture estate - both current and target. You do not necessarily require a Solution Architecture background; but need to know and understand technology and be able to work with deeply technical peers.

The current toolset is centred around Tableau and, whilst a development background in Tableau would be advantageous; we will provide training and development for any successful candidates - and we are just as interested in your lateral-thinking approach to deriving and delivering insight from data as we are in your current coding capability. In this role you will:

• Work closely with Lead Solution Architects to influence and drive the long-term Insights strategy, collaborating with senior team members across I&W and the Group
• Lead on responding quickly and accurately to requests for information from across the Architecture community, all the while coaching to build self-sufficiency in that community
• Be responsible for realising the Insights roadmap - continually improving our data model, our integration with other sources of data, our data visualisations and increasing the 'self-serve' capability in our reporting toolset

Like the modern Britain we serve, we're evolving. Investing billions in our people, data and tech to transform the way we meet the ever-changing needs of our 26 million customers. We're growing with purpose. Join us on our journey and you will too...

What you'll need

• Experience of Data Visualisation and associated tooling (development in this space highly desirable)
• Understanding of data, data modelling and reporting
• Experience of agile software delivery
• Experience of Insights and Analytics tooling, ideally with some development experience in this area
• Sound understanding of Data Architecture, Cloud Architecture, Integration Architecture would be advantageous
• Understanding I&W Value Stream would be preferential; but not essential
• Demonstrates Group Values and championing inclusion and diversity

We're disability confident. So, if you'd like reasonable adjustments to be made to our recruitment processes, just let us know.
