Transport Data Analyst - St Albans

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 St Albans

St Albans is a historic city separated from the north London conurbation by about 6 miles of countryside. The city has had a presence for thousands of years, but it was the construction if its cathedral in the Middle Ages that brought the town to prominence (although it wasn’t formally completed until the nineteenth century). St Albans is supposed to be named after the first British Christian martyr, who was executed by the Romans.

The modern city is what estate agents would describe as full of character. It takes in architecture of many periods, although much of it is twentieth century detached or semi-detached housing or Victorian terrace. The city is served by two railway lines that carry passengers right into the heart of London (one via Watford Junction), and the town is nestles in a U-shape formed by the M1, M25 and A1(M). This ease of travel and the general pleasantness of the city has made it a highly attractive with commuters, and house prices have been kept high because of the demand.

Although many of the inhabitants pack themselves onto trains and head for London every working day, St Albans, with its economically active population, has quite an advanced infrastructure to maintain, which is why it is not unusual for Transport Data Analyst positions to become available either in the city itself or in nearby Watford, Luton or Hemel Hempstead.
