Business Analyst

Job Req Number:  116264
Time Type: Full Time

At DSV we're building the world’s leading logistics and transport network. With this exciting growth comes opportunity — and we’re looking for new talent to join us.

Business Analyst – Customs (UK & Ireland)
Location: London Heathrow
Mon- Fri 37.5 hours per week

We’re looking for a Business Analyst / Continuous Improvement Specialist to support our UK & Ireland Customs function. This is a great opportunity for someone who enjoys working with data, systems, and operational processes—and wants to grow within a specialist logistics environment.

This is not a traditional customs brokerage role. Instead, you’ll focus on enhancing the systems, reporting, and workflows that enable our customs teams to operate efficiently and make data-driven decisions.

What will you be doing?

•    Maintain and enhance Power BI dashboards and operational reporting
•    Monitor and troubleshoot reporting outputs, ensuring accuracy and reliability
•    Support users with data, dashboards, and system queries
•    Act as a key contact for customs systems and tools, supporting issue resolution and testing changes
•    Analyse operational data to identify trends, inefficiencies, and improvement opportunities
•    Collaborate with customs teams to translate operational needs into practical system and reporting solutions
•    Contribute to continuous improvement initiatives across reporting, workflows, and data quality
•    Supporting customs operations across UK (75%) and Ireland (25%), with potential exposure to wider European markets
•    Working closely with operations, management, IT, and finance stakeholders

About You

Essential
•    Previous  experience in a Business Analyst or similar role
•    Strong analytical mindset and attention to detail
•    Good working knowledge of Excel and Power BI
•    Comfortable working with data, KPIs, and operational processes
•    Effective problem-solving and communication skills
•    Curious, proactive, and confident challenging existing ways of working
•    No requirement for deep customs declaration knowledge—training and exposure provided

Beneficial
•    Exposure to logistics, freight forwarding, or customs operations
•    Experience in reporting, process improvement, or systems support
•    Knowledge of SQL, Power Automate, Python, or system integrations
•    Interest in Lean / continuous improvement methodologies

What can we offer you?

Competitive Salary Package and an opportunity to be a part of and grow within a driven and successful company, with a team of 160,000, operating in over 90 countries.
In addition, we can offer access to a selection of employee benefits, such as:

Enhanced Annual Leave Entitlement from your start, which increases with length of service.
