Position Overview

We are seeking a Business Intelligence Analyst to join Telco Business Planning and design and implement the data, analytics, and business-intelligence capabilities that convert Telco operational information into scalable decision support. This role will develop analytical models, dashboards, and decision tools that connect program delivery, network deployment, financial performance, risk, capacity, and operational outcomes.

This position supports Program Delivery & Governance, Network Planning, Finance, Engineering, Operations, and digital-platform teams. The analyst will translate business questions into data requirements and analytical products; integrate information from multiple source systems; establish consistent measures and data definitions; and create repeatable insight that improves prioritization, investment decisions, deployment planning, and performance management.

The ideal candidate combines business and financial judgment with strong technical analytics capabilities. Success requires the ability to understand how operating decisions affect cost, schedule, risk, and value; build the data products needed to evaluate those relationships; and communicate conclusions clearly to technical and executive audiences.
