Data analysts are highly mathematical, organised and analytical.
They are responsible for understanding data, presenting analysis and helping others make sense of the data they manage. They will generally need to be very organised and have excellent attention to detail, as well as be able to communicate well to convey their analysis to the relevant people.
Data analysts are in fact highly sought after – in almost all sectors. This is because data is compiled and needs to be sorted in any sector, so sectors including the government, education, finance, pharmaceuticals, manufacturing and IT all are in search of data analysts. There are many different types of data analysts, so you will have plenty of choice in deciding which industry to work in; while all data analysts do vastly similar work, every job is different from another – even if they have the same job title.
Some responsibilities a data analyst may have in more detail are developing records, identifying places to improve efficiency and setting up or managing automated data processes.
