Apply for this role →Executive-Facing Analytics & Visualization LeaderFounded in 2002, Source Allies is an agile, team-based technical consultancy focused on building industry-defining data and cloud-native solutions. We partner closely with enterprise clients to design, build, and evolve modern data ecosystems that drive measurable business outcomes.
We are seeking a Senior BI & Insights Consultant who thrives at the intersection of data, design, and executive communication. This is not a pipeline engineering role. This is a storytelling and insight leadership role.
You will work with teams consuming curated, enterprise-scale data products and transform them into clear, compelling, executive-ready dashboards and narratives that shape decision-making across digital and operational domains.
Engagement OverviewYou will work downstream of multiple enterprise data product teams, owning visualization quality, executive reporting, and stakeholder communication across digital applications and operational metrics.
You will not own the upstream data pipelines or core enterprise data models. Instead, you will partner closely with data engineers and stakeholders to ensure curated data is translated into trusted insight.
What You’ll Do:
Build and maintain scalable, trusted dashboards (primarily in Power BI)
Create executive- and user-ready reporting artifacts
Translate complex datasets into intuitive, actionable narratives
Help leaders understand not what the data says, but what it means
Own Visualization Quality & Storytelling
Apply strong visual storytelling and report design best practices
Continuously improve clarity, usability, and adoption of reporting assets
Shape Data for BI Consumption
Perform final aggregation, shaping, validation, and tuning of large datasets
Use SQL to transform and wrangle data (often tens of millions of rows)
Ensure reporting datasets are reliable, performant, and fit-for-purpose
Apply light data engineering practices focused on downstream optimization
Partner with Stakeholders
Collaborate closely with product, operations, and analytics leaders
Explain joins, DAX logic, assumptions, and limitations in business language
Proactively communicate timelines, tradeoffs, blockers, and data nuances
Serve as a trusted advisor in discussions about performance and adoption metrics
Required Experience:
3+ years building interactive Power BI dashboards for business stakeholders
Demonstrated expertise in data visualization best practices, storytelling, and modern UI/UX design
3+ years of SQL experience transforming, validating, and shaping large datasets
Experience preparing datasets specifically for BI and executive consumption
Proven ability to communicate complex data concepts clearly to non-technical audiences
Comfort presenting to senior leaders and facilitating insight-driven conversations
Helpful but Not RequiredTableau experience (particularly in transition environments)
Experience working with curated enterprise data products
What This Role Is NotNot a heavy data engineering or pipeline ownership role
Not an API development position
Not isolated from stakeholders
This role is insight-forward, communication-heavy, and focused on clarity and usability.
What Success Looks LikeOperators rely on your reporting for decision-making
Data assumptions are transparent and well-understood
Complex digital and operational metrics become intuitive
Reporting assets are scalable, maintainable, and widely adopted
The pay range for this position is $90-$110/hr dependent on experience
Expected collaboration with cross-functional enterprise teams
Hybrid / onsite expectations may apply depending on client needs
