You'll be part of the Government Digital and Data community, a collective of over 28,000 professionals transforming lives through technology. Your work will have real-world impact, enabling data-driven decisions that support citizens and contribute to a fairer and more efficient tax system.
We are looking for someone with a passion for analysis, a deep understanding of data's potential, and the leadership to drive change in a fast-paced, collaborative environment. This is your opportunity to join a forward-thinking, expert community and make a lasting difference., HMRC's Risk and Intelligence Service (RIS) are looking for people with the experience and skills to join us as a Principal Data Analyst. You can look forward to a training programme tailored to your needs, the support of a mentor and excellent potential for career development. Our collaborative and ambitious environment will enable you to make a real difference in transforming lives through technology. You will be part of a team that uses data to deepen our understanding of how to ensure the right tax is paid, working with some of the most complex and comprehensive data in the country.
About the Risk & Intelligence Service (RIS), Preventive Risking and Upstream Risk & Analytics
Risk and Intelligence Service (RIS) plays a vital role in HMRC's compliance and enforcement strategy. We collect, integrate, and analyse one of the most extensive and diverse data landscapes in the world, enabling HMRC to identify and manage risks related to non-compliance across the UK tax system.
As a Principal Data Analyst in RIS, you'll be part of a team that leverages complex, large-scale data to generate actionable insights. Your work will directly support our mission to ensure the right tax is paid, using cutting-edge analytical approaches to protect public funds and improve outcomes for society.
RIS Preventive Risking: (PR) identifies, prevents, and disrupts fraudulent registrations and repayment claims, ensuring HMRC responds effectively to attacks. Potential non-compliance by legitimate customers is identified, and high-risk repayments are referred to compliance partners for intervention, improving future compliance.
Upstream Risk & Analytics (URA) have teamed up with Making Tax Digital (MTD) to develop a product called Transactional Risking. This allows HMRC to provide education and identify potential areas of concern to us and the customer early in their journey via targeted feedback called HMRC Assist. HMRC Assist encourages customers to get their tax affairs right the first time whilst simultaneously closing the tax gap. Transactional Risking provides in-session risk-based feedback; influencing customers to self-correct obvious errors, overlooked reliefs and commercial issues that look incorrect. The first funded use case was for Income Tax Self-Assessment within the MTD customer journey, but we are now expanding into VAT and CT to help improve customer journeys in those platforms, expanding the capability of the same tooling we have previously delivered., As a Principal Data Analyst, you will lead innovative, high-impact analytical work that influences strategic decision-making and transforms how HMRC identifies and responds to risk. Your responsibilities will include:
+ Ensuring RIS' technical requirements for expanding Transactional Risking to new use cases are communicated, appropriately designed and delivered to the required standards.
+ Providing leadership and expertise to resolve technical issues raised within Transactional Risking's areas of responsibility such as data ingestion & analytical platform queries.
+ Driving innovation by exploring and applying advanced data analysis techniques and new data sources in new ways, working towards HMRC's strategic objective to enhance upstream risking capability.
+ Shaping evidence-based recommendations by assessing options, understanding risks, and clearly communicating the impacts of your insights to inform strategic decisions.
+ Designing and embedding high-quality analytical processes, championing reproducible, auditable, and efficient practices that deliver measurable value and can be tracked over time.
+ Collaborating with stakeholders across disciplines to build trusted relationships, understand user needs, and deliver timely, relevant insights using agile methodologies.
+ Leading complex discussions and managing stakeholder expectations, particularly in high-risk or time-sensitive contexts.
+ Translating complex analysis into action, presenting insights in clear, compelling ways to technical and non-technical audiences at all levels.
+ Staying ahead of the curve by monitoring developments in data science, analytics, and emerging technologies, and helping the organisation adapt to best practice.
+ Collaborate across disciplines and departments, contributing to a thriving analytical community and supporting HMRC's mission with strategic, evidence-based solutions.
+ Line management of Senior Data Analysts, being accountable for their key business deliverables and managing their personal development.
Your work will contribute directly to protecting public revenue and ensuring fairness in the tax system, making a meaningful impact on people's lives across the UK.
