We're looking for someone who can work alongside our teams of analysts from across the six Workforce Development Councils to help us continue expanding this platform's capabilities and use as an awesome data resource across the sector. This role is part of a team that has been set up to drive forward the development and use of our Shared Data Platform for internal users, the broader vocational education sector, and our industries.

This role is Wellington-based with the need to be able to regularly visit the IDI data lab.

As the Senior IDI Analyst, you will be an experienced analyst and researcher within the IDI. You will have a strong background in data research, running and updating data queries, and showcasing and explaining data outputs to a variety of user levels. You will thrive working in a stimulating and fast paced senior role where you can contribute to developing the capabilities of both the data platform and your colleagues.
