Manaus, State of Amazonas, Brasil Santiago Consult Tempo integral

Senior Data Analyst — Financial Services — Contract (Remote, Brazil)


Santiago Consult is a UK-based data and AI consultancy. We build data platforms, pipelines and AI systems for clients across the UK and Europe, and we're expanding our delivery capability in Brazil.


We're building a network of senior contract data analysts with financial services experience, ready to bring onto client projects as they start. This is a talent pool ahead of upcoming engagements, so we want to talk to strong people now even if a project isn't live on day one.


The work


Financial analysis carries a different weight. Numbers have to reconcile, definitions have to hold up under scrutiny, and someone will always ask where a figure came from. You'd be working directly with the founder on client delivery — turning transactional and financial data into analysis that stands up.


Typical engagements involve:


  • Analysing transactional, customer and product data across banking, payments or lending
  • Building models in dbt on top of BigQuery or Snowflake
  • Designing dashboards for finance, risk and operations teams
  • Cohort, retention, churn and customer-value analysis
  • Reconciliation, control and data-quality reporting
  • Defining metrics rigorously and documenting them properly
  • Presenting findings to client stakeholders, including senior and non-technical audiences


What we're looking for


  • Analytical experience in financial services, banking, fintech, payments or insurance
  • Strong SQL — window functions, complex joins, performance awareness
  • Real analytical judgement: knowing which question matters, not just answering the one you were asked
  • Experience with BigQuery or Snowflake in production
  • dbt experience, or a solid grasp of analytics engineering practice
  • A BI tool in anger — Looker, Power BI, Tableau, Metabase or similar
  • Comfortable working in English with UK-based clients, including client-facing conversations
  • Understanding that in financial data, "close enough" isn't


Nice to have


  • Regulatory or management reporting experience
  • Risk, fraud or credit analytics
  • Python for analysis (pandas)
  • Git and a review workflow
  • Forecasting or predictive modelling
  • Exposure to UK or European financial regulation
  • Experience working in a consultancy or agency


Practical details


  • Fully remote, contract basis (PJ)
  • Project-based work, typically several weeks to several months
  • Good overlap with UK hours (Brazil is 3–4 hours behind, so the working day lines up well)
  • Paid in GBP or BRL, your preference


How to apply


Send your CV or profile, and please include:


1. Your day rate expectation (BRL or GBP — whichever you work in)

2. A short note on one analysis you've done that changed what the business did — what you found, and what happened next

3. Your availability and current commitments

4. Whether you invoice as PJ
