Job Introduction

***Remote/home working with occasional visits to our London or Kent office***

Our people are everything to us. The way they deliver exceptional experiences every day for our customers, for their colleagues. The way they own what they do. Their 'Why's it like that?' curiosity. How they always think of others and work together to get things done. Come and do the best work of your life alongside lovely colleagues. Come to Saga!

And right now, we are looking for Data Engineers to join Saga’s Data Engineering Team. “This is an opportunity for someone who has transferable skills and a keen interest in Data Engineering and is looking to move into the field.” You will be working in one of the three workstreams: Data Integration, Data Platform and Data Transformation. You will be using your technical skills, knowledge & experience to obtain data directly to interpret, structure and manage to make them available for analytics users.

Reporting into the Data Architect & Engineering Manager, you will be consulting with business stakeholders on a regular basis to identify data sources, usage, and refresh rates in order to help gather requirements for data build. You will be helping to implement Data Governance controls in our Single Customer View (SCV), our data warehouse for customer insights. You will also be providing documentation on codes delivered for data ingest and structuring routines.

And in return, you can look forward to all the responsibility and involvement of an integral role, providing you with a rewarding and fast-paced career with an excellent benefits package.

If this is of interest to you then we would be keen to hear from you!
