About the Role

We’re expanding into a new casino and horse racing product and are looking for a Senior Data Analyst to build the financial reporting function for this growing business from scratch. This is a greenfield, high-ownership role where you won’t be inheriting anyone else’s work. You’ll own the complete financial reporting stack end-to-end: from data modeling through final dashboards and business insights, with direct visibility to leadership.

You’ll report to the Senior Manager of Financial Analytics and partner closely with stakeholders across engineering, finance, legal & compliance, operations, and commercial teams.

If you’re someone who thrives in fast-moving environments, takes real end-to-end ownership, and wants to build something meaningful from the ground up, this is the role for you.

Responsibilities

Build and maintain the complete financial reporting infrastructure for new iCasino division — dashboards, recurring reports, and KPI tracking — from scratch
Own data modeling in partnership with the analytics engineering team through to final reporting in Sigma and Oracle
Join and transform large, complex datasets using SQL, Snowflake, and dbt to support cross-functional reporting needs
Surface insights on how the business is operating and communicate findings clearly to finance and business stakeholders
Design and develop BI solutions in Sigma following industry best practices
Help implement and maintain best practices for internal and external Sigma environments
Collaborate with analysts and data engineers to solve business problems and build scalable solutions
Leverage GenAI tools (Snowflake Cortex, Claude, GitHub Copilot) to automate workflows and improve reporting efficiency
Train and mentor others on BI best practices and newer Snowflake and Claude functionalities
Stay current on trends in data analytics and the sports betting and gaming industry

Experience and Skills

4+ years of experience in an analyst role within a fast-paced, high-growth environment
Strong SQL skills — querying and working with large datasets across platforms including Snowflake, BigQuery, MSSQL, Vertica, Presto, or PostgreSQL
Experience with dbt Core or dbt Cloud — building models, transformations, and reports
Proficiency with a BI / visualization tool — Sigma, Tableau, Looker, or similar
True end-to-end project ownership — you’ve built things from scratch, not just contributed to them
Ability to communicate clearly with both engineering teams (requirements) and non-technical stakeholders (insights and progress)
Strong accountability and autonomy — you don’t need heavy direction to operate

Nice to have:

Python for data wrangling and pipeline building
GenAI tools (Claude, ChatGPT, Snowflake Cortex, GitHub Copilot)
Gaming, casino, or sports betting industry experience
Startup or consulting background
Experience working alongside finance teams as a data practitioner
