Are you passionate about turning data into actionable insights? At MSF Switzerland, we're looking for a Data Business Analyst & Power BI Specialist to play a key role in shaping our self-service data platform and enterprise reporting.

Then, you’ll switch gears and become our Power BI expert, building intuitive reports, clean datasets, and powerful semantic models using Power BI and Microsoft Fabric.

You won’t be working in isolation. You’ll be a vital part of a cross-functional project team alongside our Data Architect, Data Engineers, and key stakeholders, you will be part of the BRIDGE (Bringing Resources & Intelligence for Dynamic Global Engagement) project team, integrated to the DIP (Data, Innovation and Project) section, which is part of the DSI (Direction of the Systems of Information).

You’ll help make sure everything we build aligns with both business goals and our data governance standards, thus influencing the adoption of the new dashboards.

If you're ready to dive into a meaningful data journey and make a real difference through your work, we’d love to hear from you.
