Changeworks is recruiting a Senior Analyst – Data to play an important role by contributing to the development and delivery of high-impact research and consultancy projects aligned with our ambition to decarbonise homes and deliver a just transition to net zero.
You will provide support across action-focused projects cutting across a range of clients and topics related to the decarbonisation of homes in Scotland. Deploying your programming language, data management and visualisation skills, you will provide support across our stock analysis, impact evaluation and research service portfolios. The outputs of this work will help inform direct delivery by Changeworks as well as our external clients.
You will also play a role in our proactive efforts to use our insights and experience to shape sector policy and practice, by supporting the team’s contributions to thought leadership, public engagement, and cross-sector working groups
Finally, you will have opportunities to further develop your project management skills through contributing and leading as required the on-time delivery of high-quality projects.
About You
You will have experience in a relevant professional setting—whether in academia, think tank, consultancy, or the community sector—and demonstrate experience in the delivery of impactful research and analysis.
We’re seeking a motivated and forward-thinking professional with the following strengths:
- Programming and Data management: a track record of using a range of programming languages (e.g. R, Python) and data analysis platforms (Excel, Power BI or equivalent like Tableau) to support robust and high-quality deliverables in a consultancy, think tank or similar research environment.
- Strategic Insight: experience assisting clients and partners to use data analytics to support strategic decision making and achieve their goals.
- Sector-relevant Expertise: knowledge of energy efficiency, individual and collective low-carbon heating systems, an understanding of the drivers of fuel poverty, and knowledge of project finance and retrofit financing. SAP-related experience would be a plus.
- Research Project Delivery: demonstrable experience in contributing to excellent project delivery in a professional, research or consultancy role.
- Communication & Collaboration: experience communicating complex data clearly using visualisation to support engagement with diverse stakeholder groups. Experience with GIS would be a plus.
Above all, we are looking for passionate and proactive individuals who share our commitment to a sustainable, low-carbon Scotland.
While we welcome candidates with expertise across all these areas, we encourage applications from individuals with strengths in some and a willingness to grow in others. Dependent on experience, an offer may be made to the successful candidate at the Analyst grade with the opportunity to develop into a Senior Analyst.
About the Consultancy Team
Our Consultancy team offers expert analytical and advisory services to a diverse range of clients including local authorities, housing associations, the Scottish Government, and organisations across the third and private sectors. Our work covers the full spectrum of decarbonising Scotland’s homes—from energy efficiency and low-carbon heat to renewable energy systems, fuel poverty, and behaviour change.
We support clients to decarbonise their housing assets and contribute evidence to inform policy, planning, supply chains, and finance at both national and local levels.
About The Company
Changeworks is a great place to work. We hold Investors in People Platinum accreditation (something only a few organisations in Scotland have), and our staff overwhelmingly would recommend us as an employer too.
The Climate Emergency has resulted in ambitious national targets to reduce carbon emissions from the built environment and reduce rates of fuel poverty. This has driven a significant increase in the number of pilot and large-scale interventions delivered by Changeworks and external organisations in this area. These include area-based domestic energy efficiency retrofit and decarbonisation projects and programmes.
We are a growing organisation, and this role is crucial to the delivery of our ambitious objectives. We want to decarbonise homes in Scotland on a massive scale, and that needs talented individuals like you to help us deliver on our objectives. You’ll receive full training plus coaching and mentoring.
We offer a wide range of staff benefits including flexible working, bike to work scheme, an excellent pension scheme and 26 days paid holiday plus 9 public holidays per year.
At Changeworks, we welcome and encourage applications from everyone.
