Your role

Data tells a story. The question is: can you turn it into better business decisions?

At softgarden, we're looking for a Lead Business Analytics (m/f/d) who combines analytical excellence with leadership skills. You'll help shape how we measure success, uncover opportunities, and provide the insights that guide strategic decisions across the business.

This is not a pure management role. We're looking for someone who enjoys rolling up their sleeves, building solutions, and leading by example.

What you'll do:

• Lead, mentor, and develop the Business Analytics team.
• Own and continuously improve executive dashboards, KPI frameworks, and reporting structures in Power BI.
• Support the development of our Microsoft Fabric data platform by integrating new business data sources and improving data pipelines.
• Conduct business analyses to identify trends, risks, growth opportunities, and operational improvements.
• Partner closely with Sales, Marketing, Product, Finance, and Operations to support strategic initiatives and business decisions.
• Define business requirements for BI and data projects and ensure high data quality standards across reporting environments.
• Identify opportunities for automation and AI-supported analytics to improve reporting efficiency and business impact.

What you bring along

• 5+ years of experience in Business Analytics, Business Intelligence, Controlling, FP&A, or a comparable analytical role.
• Strong hands-on expertise in Power BI, including dashboard development, data modelling, and stakeholder reporting/communication.
• Experience working with SQL, data pipelines, and modern data warehouse environments.
• Experience leading projects, initiatives, or small teams.
• Strong analytical thinking and the ability to translate complex data into clear business recommendations.

• Ability to work cross-functionally and influence decision-making at different organizational levels.

Nice-to-have:

• Experience in a SaaS environment, Microsoft Fabric, Python, AI-driven analytics, or Tableau-to-Power-BI migrations is a strong plus.
