The opportunity

We are looking for a positive, flexible self-starter to join our team as a Senior Analyst. This is an exciting opportunity to play a leading role in delivering our analysis capability as an integral part of a small, agile and growing business.

Our team of analysts, consultants and Defence SMEs work closely with our customers to deliver high-impact services and solutions. Data science and operational analysis are a key part of Catalyze’s capability. We are growing this capability and are looking for a highly motivated and capable Senior Analyst.

As Senior Analyst your role will include:

  • Collating, managing, structuring, analysing and visualising data.
  • Using agile approaches to develop models and tools, including requirements capture, design, development, testing and management.
  • Deriving unique insights from data to inform senior-level decision making.
  • Designing, developing and running analysis models.

  • Taking a consultative approach to your work, understanding how your work contributes to delivering a great result for our clients.
  • Developing strong relationships with the wider Catalyze team.

Our UK office is based just outside Winchester. The role will require a blend of working from our office, occasional travel to client sites, and working from home. We are happy to consider flexible working arrangements based on individual circumstances.

Our main clients will be based around key UK Defence establishments in the south of England.

A competitive package will be offered, based on your experience.
