About Toby

I help businesses fix, rebuild, and modernise their BI and reporting — fast.

With 12+ years across Insurance, Financial Services and Sports Analytics, I specialise in Power BI, SQL and Snowflake, and bring hands-on GPT-3/LLM and NLP experience that most BI freelancers don't have. Currently available and looking to work 2-3 days/week, so you get focused, senior-level attention on your project without the cost or commitment of a full-time hire.

What I bring:

Reporting: Power BI, DAX, Power BI Report Builder, Qlik Sense, Tableau, Looker, SSRS
Engineering: Advanced SQL, Snowflake, data pipeline design, cloud migration
AI: Applied AI/LLM and NLP experience (GPT-3, Python, Streamlit)
Delivery: End-to-end delivery: requirements gathering, data mapping, QA, stakeholder UAT

Recent highlights:

Rebuilt 40+ Power BI reporting products for a global insurer, on time and to spec
Delivered an 85% reduction in infrastructure costs as part of a cloud migration programme
Designed GDPR-compliant Snowflake pipelines for FinTech experimentation
Built an end-to-end R&D funding platform (Power BI + Python/Streamlit + Power Apps) covering 357 global incentives

Types of projects I take on:
Dashboard builds and rebuilds, reporting migrations, BI health checks, Snowflake/SQL pipeline work, and short-scoped engagements where senior expertise is needed quickly.
