Bauer Media Outdoor reaches millions of people across Europe through digital and out of home advertising. We operate thousands of digital screens and poster sites in high impact locations across multiple markets.

We are modernising the platforms that power how data is used across our business, improving how teams access, understand, and act on insights.

Our mission is simple.

Create tech that makes a difference- empower teams, delight customers, shape the media world of tomorrow

The Role

We are looking for a Specialist Power BI Developer to strengthen our BI capability and improve the reliability, scalability, and usability of our reporting estate.

This is a hands-on role focused on delivering high quality Power BI solutions end to end, while also taking ownership of how the Power BI Service environment is managed and operated in production. You will work closely with stakeholders across the business to turn data into meaningful, trusted insights, ensuring the platform is stable, well governed, and built to scale.

You will operate across a broad Power BI estate that supports decision making across multiple European markets, covering semantic models, reporting layers, and the Power BI Service environment. Working closely with data engineering teams using Azure and Databricks, you will consume curated datasets and help shape how they are used within reporting.

This is not a data engineering role. The focus is on business-facing analytics, Power BI delivery, and operational excellence, alongside introducing more modern, AI-assisted analytics capabilities into the reporting ecosystem in a practical and controlled way.
