Job SummaryThe Business Intelligence Analyst turns TMG's business data into clear Power BI dashboards, reliable reports, and actionable insights that improve financial and operational decision-making. Reporting to the Business Systems & Technology Manager, this role partners with leaders to define meaningful measures and brings fresh ideas to how TMG presents and uses data.

Key Responsibilities - Partner with leaders and departments to understand business objectives and identify key performance indicators. Design, develop, and maintain Power BI dashboards that use clear visual hierarchy, navigation, filtering, and drill-through to make information easy to understand and act upon.
- Bring new dashboard concepts, visualizations, and analytical approaches to TMG, and evaluate existing reports to simplify, consolidate, or modernize them.
- Use SQL, Power Query, and DAX to prepare data, create calculated measures, and build reusable, scalable data models that support consistent reporting across departments, companies, and locations.
- Analyze financial and operational data to identify trends, exceptions, and emerging issues, and explain findings and business implications in clear language for technical and nontechnical audiences.
- Validate dashboard results against source systems, investigate discrepancies, and document report definitions, data sources, calculations, assumptions, refresh schedules, ownership, and known limitations.
- Monitor report refreshes and support appropriate reporting access and data security. Work with the Business Systems & Technology Manager and system owners to resolve reporting data issues.
- Train employees and leaders to use dashboards and self-service reporting features, and gather feedback to continuously improve clarity, performance, and adoption.
- Maintain consistent dashboard standards, naming conventions, documentation, and version-control practices.
- Perform other related responsibilities as required to support business objectives and organizational priorities.
Minimum Qualifications - Bachelor's degree in business analytics, information systems, computer science, finance, accounting, statistics, or a related field; an equivalent combination of education and directly related experience will be considered.
- Minimum of two (2) years of professional experience in business intelligence, reporting, or data analysis, including at least one (1) year developing and maintaining Power BI dashboards for business users.
- Proficiency in Power Query, DAX, data modeling, and scheduled refresh troubleshooting, demonstrated through hands-on experience designing, publishing, and maintaining Power BI dashboards for business users.
- Working SQL skills, including joins, filters, aggregations, data validation, and query troubleshooting.
- Strong Excel skills, including formulas, lookups, pivot tables, and reconciliation of reporting outputs.
- Ability to work with business leaders to define relevant performance measures, with the initiative and creativity to recommend improvements and introduce new reporting or visualization ideas.
- Strong analytical skills and attention to detail, with the ability to validate results, investigate discrepancies, and explain data clearly to nontechnical audiences.
- Strong documentation, organization, communication, and relationship-building skills.
Preferred Qualifications - Direct reporting or data-analysis experience with Sage 300 and/or Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central beyond end-user use; experience with both is a significant advantage.

- Experience developing dashboards for executive, financial, operational, sales, and inventory audiences in multi-company or multi-location organizations, including familiarity with financial statements, budgets, forecasts, and variance analysis.
- Experience establishing dashboard standards, reusable templates, certified datasets, or common KPI definitions, improving dashboard adoption, and retiring low-value reports.
- Familiarity with APIs, ODBC, ETL, and data feeds sufficient to communicate reporting needs to system owners.
- Microsoft Certified: Power BI Data Analyst Associate or similar certification.
