As a Data Analyst at Prophix, you will serve as the primary technical authority and executive-facing advisor for a portfolio of client engagements — translating complex data challenges into scalable, production-ready analytics solutions that drive measurable outcomes. You will work directly with C-suite leaders and senior executives to lead solution design and delivery across everything from ETL pipelines to dynamic dashboards, bridging raw data infrastructure and the strategic decisions your clients need to make with confidence. Based in Perth, this role suits someone who combines deep technical capability with the presence and communication skills to lead at the executive level.

What You Will Do

• Lead structured discovery engagements to surface unstated requirements, assess existing data ecosystems, and define solution scope aligned to measurable client outcomes — translating complex stakeholder needs into actionable solution designs.
• Design and implement end-to-end ETL pipelines that move data reliably from source to insight, built to scale with your clients' evolving needs.
• Build dynamic dashboards and data visualizations that make complex information accessible and meaningful for a range of business audiences.
• Develop algorithms and process structures to compute business rules and complex calculations, ensuring accuracy and consistency across client solutions.
• Produce clear, well-structured solution documentation that supports client understanding, adoption, and long-term maintainability.
• Lead client-facing engagements with senior executives and business leaders, guiding them through technology evaluations, solution design, and delivery with confidence and clarity.
• Own the full arc of client engagements — from scoping through sign-off — managing timelines, quality standards, and documentation with a high degree of autonomy and without requiring close supervision.
• Manage your time and delivery commitments across a portfolio of billable client engagements, maintaining utilisation in line with Professional Services team targets.

What You Will Bring

We hire for potential as much as experience. If this role excites you but you don’t check every box, we still want to hear from you. At Prophix, people who ask good questions, adapt quickly, and bring a fresh perspective often make the biggest impact.

• Database experience with one or more of the following: SQL Server, Snowflake, Oracle, PostgreSQL, or MySQL.
• Strong communication skills with the ability to present findings and guide technical conversations with senior executives and business leaders.
• Solid project management and problem-solving skills, with the ability to manage multiple client engagements simultaneously.
• Ability to travel domestically or internationally approximately 3–4 times per year.
• Eligible to work in Australia.

• Ability to learn new tools and adapt as technology evolves
