About Group Data:

At Policy Expert, data is at the heart of everything we do, and our ambition is clear: our data and analytics will enrich every customer experience, optimize every business decision, and empower every colleague. The Exec and Board have committed significant investment to establish and mature our data capabilities, underpinned by a transformative Data Strategy built around three core pillars: Operating Model, Data & Analytics Platform, and Data Culture. We have five disciplines – Data Management, Engineering, Science, Analytics, and Visualisation – that collaborate with the rest of the business to drive incremental value through data, operational excellence, and business agility.

About the Data Visualisation team:

The Data Visualisation team is a new and specialist function at Policy Expert, responsible for bringing data to life through powerful, intuitive and actionable visualisations and reporting. The team owns, maintains, evolves and promotes the usage of our BI tooling (currently Looker Studio + Looker), drives our strategic visualisation roadmap, and ensures that insights are accessible, actionable, and easily interpretable across the business. They empower business users with self-service capabilities, enabling independent exploration and confident, data-driven decision-making. They collaborate closely with other Group Data disciplines, Product management and business stakeholders to maximise the value of our data, continually adapting to industry trends and emerging technologies such as semantic layers, headless BI, and AI-powered insights.
