IMPOWER is the country’s largest independent management consultancy, focused exclusively on helping our public sector clients improve services for their local communities - and getting the best use of the public pound.
We work with clients in local and national government to improve how public services are delivered. From children's and adult's social care, to healthcare and place-based economic development, we help drive transformation of services that drives better outcomes for the public.
We understand that impactful and meaningful change cannot be solved sustainably through traditional, linear project management approaches. Our unique EDGEWORK methodology provides our clients with the skills, techniques and mindset to collaboratively solve the complex problems they face – and we have shown that IMPOWER’s way of approaching change has provided better outcomes for service users that help deliver our clients’ ambitions.
Our team of highly skilled consultants and analysts use applied behavioural science, insight, creativity and a talent for building strong relationships to transform public service delivery. If you have a passion for improving public services and the energy to tackle some of our clients’ most difficult challenges, we hope you will be inspired to join our team.
The Applied Analytics Practice represents a critical function of the IMPOWER business, providing exceptional data analytics to deliver meaningful, actionable insights to our clients as an integral part of and informing the delivery of our work with IMPOWER’s clients.
The team, currently 8 people, leverage a wide range of tools, from Excel to AI, but most importantly curiosity and a passion to identify insight that can drive positive change for our clients. We provide a range of support to our wider client teams, for example, demand and capacity modelling in relation to existing or new public services and NLP based sentiment analysis to identify priority areas for change in citizen experiences.
Our clients are influenced by a range of political, social and economic pressures which means the quality of the information they hold and the insights they can draw from it has never been more important when trying to find solutions. We often receive large data sets from clients which can contain anomalies for a range of reasons such as it being derived from multiple data sources, errors in system migrations, poor training and consequently user error. We therefore often need to gather and clean the data before we can start analysing it to identify themes or generate hypothesis around the root cause of a problem. This is key in enabling us to deliver meaningful, long-term, sustainable solutions.
We are an organisation that is actively working towards anti-discrimination of any kind against race, gender, gender identity, sexuality, disability, age, religious belief, parental or carer commitments, marital status or civil partnership. We do this through our D&I strategy, constant review of our policies and procedures, via our recruitment processes, and training and development of our staff.
We have signed up to the Disability Confident scheme and we are committed to ensuring our application and interview processes are inclusive for all candidates.
As an analyst, you will be responsible for utilising data tools and techniques to clean the data, generate reports, create dashboards and visualisations that “tell a story” of the insights derived from the data.
