Business Analyst – Housing Directorate – #OR102510

Job Description

Westminster City Council is seeking a skilled Data Business Analyst to support its Housing Directorate, which manages over 21,000 homes across the city. This is a contract role based at 64 Victoria Street, London, offering up to £300 per day (umbrella), with agile working arrangements. Start date 15 June 2026.

This is a pivotal role combining data analysis, business analysis and systems thinking — helping transform how data drives decision-making, service delivery and investment planning across Westminster’s housing portfolio.

Key responsibilities include analysing complex housing and asset data to support strategic planning; identifying data quality issues and process inefficiencies; supporting asset lifecycle and investment programmes; developing dashboards, reports, heatmaps and performance metrics; and enabling predictive maintenance and risk-based service delivery models. You will also produce business analysis outputs such as process maps, requirements documentation and project artefacts, and ensure compliance with GDPR and data governance standards.

Essential: strong background in data and business analysis; experience with SQL, Python, R or similar tools; proven ability to work with large, complex datasets; and strong stakeholder engagement across technical and non-technical teams. Experience in housing, asset management or local government is desirable, as is knowledge of Building Safety or Decent Homes standards and familiarity with NoSQL databases.

Apply now to be part of Westminster’s data-led transformation of housing services.
