Transport Data Analyst
Running an efficient transport operation is difficult. Every journey, every scheduled maintenance and every relationship with other partners has the potential to save money or to waste it. Only by keeping on top of things can a logistics or supply chain business hope to be optimally profitable.
This is why transport data analyst jobs come with very good salaries and benefits packages – a good transport data analyst can save a large company millions every year.
Essentially, the task involves gathering available transport data and interpreting it into analysable formats so that detrimental elements like bottlenecks, overspending and underfunding can be identified. In some roles, the analyst will also set up the metrics that are being measured to establish baseline performance and start to work on making it more efficient. Then, they will produce reports and recommendations to influence company policy and drive these discovered efficiencies.
The skills required
You should have a thorough understanding of how logistics and transport work, preferably through several years’ experience in the sector. It’s an industry with its own unique set of regulations and practices, and the bounds of these frameworks will influence your efficiency plans.
An ability to communicate the presence of inefficiencies, with evidence, to board members and other relevant stakeholders, will be vital. That can sometimes mean standing your ground and persuading executives that your proposed measures are necessary and effective.
Transport Data Analyst Jobs in Aberdeenshire
Aberdeenshire is a large county in the North East of Scotland. Although clearly named after the large city of Aberdeen, the city itself is not technically in the county (Aberdeen City is the local authority), although the city does of course influence the county greatly, not least because the county’s main offices are in Aberdeen City area! Aberdeen borders the counties of Angus, Perth and Kinross and Highland Moray. The population of the county of Aberdeenshire is roughly the same as that of the city, about a quarter of a million.
Aberdeen is a thriving city that is still hugely dependent on the North Sea Oil industry, and is a centre of employment, culture and entertainment that influences the county of Aberdeenshire. Anyone looking for Transport Data Analyst jobs should check the City of Aberdeen first, but the towns in its orbital area are well worth checking out too. Peterhead, Inverurie and Fraserburgh are worth checking, too.
