Job Description

Day to day:

Firebirds Wood Fired Grill is seeking a highly skilled and analytical Senior BI & Data Analytics Analyst to join our growing team at our home office. This is a pivotal role that transforms complex data into actionable intelligence, empowering our Finance, Marketing, and Operations departments to make data-driven decisions that directly fuel business growth, optimize efficiency, and enhance the guest experience.

The ideal candidate possesses a deep understanding of business intelligence principles, exceptional data modeling capabilities, and advanced proficiency in a leading BI tool. This individual will not only design and maintain robust reporting solutions but, more critically, will leverage data to solve complex business problems, identify strategic opportunities, and provide compelling recommendations that drive our forward-thinking initiatives.

Key Responsibilities:

• Strategic Problem Solving & Recommendations: Act as a proactive data partner, engaging with Finance, Marketing, and Operations stakeholders to understand their challenges and objectives. Translate business questions into analytical frameworks, performing in-depth data analysis to uncover root causes, identify actionable insights, and deliver clear, data-backed strategic recommendations that influence decision-making.

• Semantic Model Design & Optimization: Architect, develop, and maintain advanced semantic models within our chosen BI platform (primarily Power BI). Ensure these models are robust, scalable, accurate, and provide a single source of truth for all reporting and analytical needs, including establishing relationships, defining complex measures (e.g., using DAX), and implementing calculated columns.

• Actionable Reporting & Dashboard Creation: Develop, publish, and maintain interactive and visually compelling reports and dashboards that go beyond presenting data, effectively communicating key performance indicators (KPIs) and insights that enable users to quickly grasp performance, identify trends, and take action.

• Data Analysis & Insight Generation: Conduct rigorous statistical and quantitative analysis on large and diverse datasets to identify trends, patterns, anomalies, and underlying drivers. Translate complex analytical findings into clear, concise, and business-relevant narratives for both technical and non-technical audiences.

• Cross-Functional Strategic Partnership: Collaborate extensively with leadership and teams across Finance (e.g., P&L analysis, budgeting), Marketing (e.g., campaign effectiveness, guest behavior), and Operations (e.g., labor optimization, supply chain efficiency) to understand their unique data needs and proactively deliver tailored analytical solutions that directly impact their strategic goals.

• Data Quality & Governance: Champion data integrity by ensuring the accuracy, consistency, and reliability of data used in all reporting and analysis. Proactively identify and resolve data discrepancies and contribute to overall data governance best practices.

• BI Solution Performance & Innovation: Monitor the performance of existing BI solutions, identifying areas for improvement and implementing optimizations. Stay current with BI industry best practices and emerging technologies, recommending innovative approaches to enhance our analytical capabilities.

• Documentation & Training: Create and maintain comprehensive documentation for data models, reports, analytical processes, and business logic. Provide training and ongoing support to empower business users to effectively utilize BI tools and interpret data insights independently.
