  • Contribute to advanced data analytics and proactive insight models.
  • Help transform complex datasets into information that supports better business and customer decisions.
  • Explore opportunities to use AI and emerging technologies to unlock additional value from data.
PROTECT DATA & MAINTAIN QUALITY
  • Support database administration and best-practice maintenance.
  • Ensure data is accurate, complete, reliable and appropriately governed.
  • Work within relevant data governance requirements, including POPIA compliance.
  • Participate in testing and quality assurance of new and enhanced solutions.
SHARE KNOWLEDGE
  • Create technical specifications and supporting documentation.
  • Participate in requirements gathering and solution design.
  • Share technical knowledge and best practices with the wider team.
  • Translate complex technical concepts into language that business stakeholders can understand.

THE SKILLS THAT WILL SET YOU APART

We're looking for someone who is:

  • Analytical – You enjoy digging into data and finding the story behind it.
  • Innovative – You constantly look for smarter ways to solve problems.
  • A problem solver – Complex technical challenges energise you rather than frustrate you.
  • Results driven – You take ownership and see solutions through to completion.
  • A strong communicator – You can comfortably translate between technical and business language.
  • A team player – You enjoy sharing knowledge and helping others grow.
  • Detail focused – You understand that accuracy matters when working with mission-critical data.
  • Self-motivated – You don't wait to be told where the next improvement can be made.

THE FUTURE OF DATA IS ALREADY HERE

This role isn't only about maintaining existing systems.

You'll have the opportunity to explore AI, advanced analytics and intelligent data solutions that can create meaningful insights for the business and its customers.

We want someone who is curious about what technology can do next — and who wants to be part of making it happen.


WHY THIS ROLE?

If you're ready to move beyond simply writing SQL queries and maintaining code, this is an opportunity to work across a broader technology ecosystem where your expertise can influence:

DATA → INTEGRATIONS → ANALYTICS → AUTOMATION → AI → BUSINESS INSIGHT

You'll be working closely with the BI Manager and wider team in an environment where your technical contribution can directly support operational efficiency and business growth.


READY TO MAKE DATA WORK SMARTER?

If you're a SQL / C# Specialist who loves technology, thrives on solving complex problems and wants to work at the intersection of data, integrations, analytics and AI, we'd love to hear from you.

Bring your technical expertise. Bring your curiosity. Bring your ideas.

Let's turn data into something that drives the business forward.
