About

I’m a UK-based Business Intelligence and Data Engineering professional with over 15 years of experience spanning corporate finance, financial modelling, business analytics and enterprise reporting.

My speciality is bridging the gap between business requirements and technical solutions. I help organisations turn complex, fragmented data into reliable reporting systems, automated workflows and actionable management information.

My technical experience includes:

  • Power BI: Executive dashboards, financial and operational reporting, DAX, Power Query, semantic models and data visualisation.
  • Data Engineering: SQL, Azure, Microsoft Fabric, Snowflake, Informatica IICS, ETL/ELT pipelines and data warehouse architecture.
  • ERP & Business Systems: SAP ECC6, financial and operational data integration, inventory management, sales analytics and procurement reporting.
  • Financial Modelling: Forecasting, budgeting, investment appraisal, DCF valuations, scenario analysis and management accounting.
  • Process Automation: Excel, Power Query, data transformation, automated reporting and workflow optimisation.

I currently work with a multinational industrial distribution company, developing enterprise-scale business intelligence solutions that integrate SAP data with modern cloud analytics platforms. My work includes designing data models, developing complex financial and operational KPIs, improving reporting performance and supporting data warehouse modernisation initiatives.

Previously, I worked across corporate finance, investment analysis and financial modelling, including projects involving private equity, mergers and acquisitions, infrastructure and energy. This commercial background allows me to approach technical projects with a clear understanding of the decisions the data needs to support.

I’m particularly interested in freelance projects involving Power BI development, SQL and data engineering, financial modelling, reporting automation and business intelligence consulting.

Whether you need a one-off dashboard, an improved data pipeline, a financial model or ongoing analytical support, I bring a combination of technical expertise, financial understanding and practical problem-solving.

Based in Leeds, UK, I’m available for remote projects with UK and international clients, as well as occasional in-person collaboration.
