We're looking for an Analytics Specialist - Airline Network & Schedule to join our Schedule and Network Management team, helping turn complex data into practical insights, smarter tools and better business decisions. This is a hands-on analytics role with plenty of variety, autonomy and opportunity to innovate. You'll work across network planning, schedule planning and network strategy, using data, automation and emerging technologies to solve real business challenges. If you love getting stuck into complex datasets, building solutions that make people's jobs easier and seeing your work influence commercial and operational decisions, this could be the role for you.
You'll play a key role in improving how we use data across Network Management, building analytical tools and providing insights that help shape our airline's network and schedules. No two weeks will look quite the same. From developing Power BI dashboards and automating manual processes to analysing route profitability or supporting a new business case, you'll have the opportunity to work on a broad range of projects.
You'll:
- Design, build and enhance Power BI dashboards, reports and analytical tools that make complex information accessible and actionable.
- Work with large datasets from multiple sources, using tools such as Databricks, SQL and Excel to uncover insights and improve reporting.
- Identify opportunities to automate processes, improve data quality and reduce manual effort across network and schedule planning.
- Explore and implement practical applications of AI and emerging technologies to improve analytical capability and efficiency.
- Support commercial analysis, business cases, route profitability assessments, capacity planning and financial modelling.
- Analyse network and schedule performance, identifying trends, opportunities, risks and commercial trade-offs.
- Develop reporting and analysis to support airport slot management, seasonal planning, budgets and forecasts.
- Partner with stakeholders across Network Management, Revenue Management, Finance, Operations and Technology to understand their challenges and develop practical solutions.
- Translate complex data into clear insights, recommendations and presentations that support confident business decisions.
You'll be great in this role if you…
We're looking for a technically capable, curious and proactive analyst who enjoys solving problems and finding better ways of doing things. You don't need to come from aviation. We're more interested in your technical capability, analytical thinking and willingness to learn.
Ideally, you'll bring:
- Strong experience developing interactive dashboards, visualisations and reporting solutions in Power BI.
- Advanced Excel skills, including experience building analytical and financial models.
- Experience using SQL, querying data warehouses or working with large and complex datasets, or the ability to pick up new technical skills quickly.
- An interest in AI, automation and emerging technologies, with a curiosity for how they can improve business processes.
- Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, with the ability to navigate ambiguity and develop practical solutions independently.
- The ability to bring together information from different data sources and translate it into clear, meaningful insights for stakeholders.
- Strong communication and stakeholder engagement skills, with the confidence to explain your findings, challenge assumptions and make recommendations.
- A proactive, self-directed approach, with the ability to manage competing priorities and take ownership of your work.
- A relevant tertiary qualification in analytics, data, technology, business, commerce or a related discipline, or equivalent experience.
- Experience with Databricks, Python, forecasting or optimisation tools would be advantageous.
- Exposure to aviation, transport, network planning or other complex operational environments would also be beneficial, but isn't essential.
