BI Manager - Leeds

An experienced business intelligence manager is required to head up my clients mid-sized team of BI specialists, and take control of operational and strategic duties across a wider project based development function when required.

Although this is not a hands-on role, the BI manager must have a technical background and a solid understanding of Business Intelligence products and technologies. Part of the remit of this role includes improving the status and perception of the Business Intelligence function within the business; so a passion and enthusiasm for BI and an ability to speak authoritatively on it's capabilities and benefits (to an end-user) is essential.

The BI manager must have a background in one of the mainstream BI platforms (ideally Cognos or SQL / Microsoft BI) but must also be open minded to new technologies and interested/experienced in new product evaluation selection.

An interest in emerging technologies would also be useful - big data & real-time BI is something being discussed and considered by my client at the moment and the BI manager would be expected to drive this idea forward in the business if the benefits appear significant.

The BI manager must have experience of:

-> leading teams of BI & database developers
-> growing / recruiting additional technical staff
-> managing technical projects and product implementations across the full project life-cycle
-> managing senior stakeholders and customer/client relationships
