Data Manager

This is an exciting opportunity for an experienced Data Manager to play a key role delivering a high-quality data management and reporting service at Emanuel School.

As Data Manager you will be responsible for establishing and delivering data reporting and management across the school, overseeing the school’s databases and management of data warehousing, data pools and servers. You will also lead on a range of projects to develop and support the websites and databases that underpin the school’s communication and development strategies.

You will be responsible for supporting mainly MS SQL databases, creating complex reports and publishing reports to the report server, using SSIS, SSRS and Power BI along with other data tools. You will also be a key user and driver of enhancements to the school’s main MIS system (iSAMS) as well as the school’s e-learning platform (Firefly).

Confidence in using SQL databases, producing SSRS reports, and developing Power BI dashboards and manipulating and analysing data is essential, as is a meticulous approach to data checking.

You will also need project management experience, with strong customer service, care and support skills.

Working at Emanuel

Everyone works hard here, and anyone joining us should expect to do the same and share our commitment to the highest standards. At the same time our ethos remains unpretentious, kindly and practical, and there’s a strong sense of community and friendship at the school.

We aim to look after our staff well: we have an appraisal scheme with a focus on employees’ professional development; we sponsor postgraduate courses and a range of training opportunities; we offer salary sacrifice childcare vouchers through TEDS Premier, we offer a healthcare plan via Simply Health that includes counselling and medical support; and we’re committed to supporting staff wellbeing. Financially, all staff benefit from good pension provision and free lunches.
