Job Details
Use your data analysis expertise to help improve lives. Join a team working towards ambitious goals, delivering exceptional affordable housing solutions for the people of Bristol.
Transforming Bristol’s housing
Regularly voted to be one of the best places to live in the UK, Bristol is celebrated as one of the most liveable cities in the country with excellent green credentials, access to open space and cultural amenity. With a population of nearly 500,000 people and growing, Bristol City Council is determined to make sure this prosperity and the opportunities that come with it benefit everyone, through the provision of new homes and business opportunities in sustainable mixed-use communities.
What will I be doing?
Working with service teams across the Council and key partners, you’ll gather performance information to provide business insight through strategic data and trend analysis. Interpreting both housing need and affordable housing delivery data, your findings will support policy development to help inform the Council’s Housing Delivery Strategy and Housing Development agenda.
You’ll provide input into briefings, policy documents and other material supporting affordable housing delivery. Your forensic analysis of the data and the associated reports you produce will inform decisions made by senior managers, as well as Cabinet Members, the Mayor and the Bristol Homes Board.
What do I need to have?
You’ll bring a good eye for detail and a sound knowledge and experience of using statistical and/or qualitative data analysis software packages. You should have a willingness to learn about the housing development process and be skilled and experienced in using thematic analysis to effective challenge assumptions and accurately inform decision making.
Why Bristol City Council?
At Bristol City Council, we work together to make Bristol a better place – now and for future generations. We’re a high-profile, fast-moving organisation that goes the extra mile for our own people, too. Join us, and you’ll thrive in our supportive environment, with every opportunity to build on your existing skills and develop new ones. We also offer a generous rewards package including flexible working and flexi-time, membership of the Local Government Pension scheme, and generous annual leave allowance.

At Bristol City Council, we value having a workforce as diverse as the City we serve. We therefore welcome, develop and promote people from all sections of the community.
Company
We provide hundreds of day-to-day services to support people who live or work in Bristol, from issuing business grants to providing social care to running the city's museums and parks. We deliver a range of services for people who visit the city too.
Bristol is a successful city with much to be proud of but, like all cities, we have our challenges. The city's success doesn't reach everyone living here and this brings some difficult issues.
We have an ambitious vision to build a better Bristol that includes everyone in the city's success and leaves no one behind.
That's why we're looking for innovative and talented individuals who can help us achieve this vision. We want people who share our values and commitment to serve the city, its communities and citizens.
At Bristol City Council we pride ourselves on growing a workforce that is talented, diverse and motivated and represents the community it serves. Only then can we provide an appropriate and outstanding service to all Bristol citizens. We aim to have a diverse workforce where creativity thrives. Our handling of equality and inclusion will reach the high standards we expect of ourselves and others will look to us as a source of good practice.
It's a great time to join us. In August 2020 Bristol published a new Workforce Strategy which has equality and inclusion at its core. We became the first major city to publish reports on ethnicity and disabled employees pay gaps, as well as the required gender pay gap report. We're now changing and improving our equality, diversity and inclusion performance and embedding positive practices into everything we do.
We're investing in changes and improvements to recruitment, strategies and leadership that lead to increased diversity in the council's workforce, as well as creating a range of opportunities for under-represented groups to move in to senior roles, such as The Stepping Up programme. This is Bristol's award-winning leadership scheme for Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic groups and other equality groups: just one way in which we're working towards a more inclusive work place. If you're joining the council, you could have the opportunity to apply for this, and other, positive action initiatives.
