Description

Partners in Performance is a global management consulting firm with a focus on human performance and working alongside client partners to make change happen.

We've got offices in Australia, New Zealand, Africa, North and South America, the UK and Europe but prefer to spend as little time in them as possible.

Instead, we work alongside our clients to unleash their potential and deliver lasting impact that you hardly ever achieve by sitting in a boardroom.

Partners in Performance is looking for a Power BI specialist to join our team and meet the growing demand for Power BI solutions - both for our clients and for our internal use.

This role requires a strong "hands-on" approach, as well as coaching and training skills, as you will be expected to help and guide our consulting and internal teams with your expertise.

You will be the firm's Power BI "go-to" person.

Clients (priority, 60%)

Work with our consulting teams to create Power BI dashboards for our clients.
Coach and support our junior consultants who are developing dashboards for our clients.

Design and deliver training programs.

As a Power BI specialist, your responsibilities will include:

Building the dashboards, checking in with stakeholders and managing delivery expectations
Working with the clients to publish and license the dashboards to their Microsoft environment
Coaching the consultant teams to perform the above tasks when they are building the dashboards. This assistance may span all aspects from designing data models to specific DAX coding questions.
Coaching internal teams on how to improve and expand their dashboards to meet senior PiP stakeholder needs, such as finance dashboards. Manage these internal stakeholder relationships.
Prepare and deliver training materials to train consultants and internal teams the fundamentals of Power BI.
Prepare and deliver a series of "How Tos" and case studies to expand the knowledge of internal analysts and consultants.
Build internal Power BI dashboards as required. For example to visualise data being collected via internal Power Apps.
Manage internal stakeholder relationships to support the development of internal Power BI reports built by our internal analysts.

Other responsibilities will include:

Develop standard "best practice" methodologies on how to build and deliver Power BI dashboards.
Contribute to client proposals as required.
