We are engaging a senior Power BI Developer to design and implement a centralized, executive-level dashboard that consolidates firm performance metrics currently maintained across multiple spreadsheets.
The solution must be secure, automated, and fully owned by the firm, with refresh capabilities configured to run without manual intervention. This role is responsible for both the dashboard and the underlying data architecture that supports reliable, ongoing reporting.
Scope of Work
Dashboard & Analytics
Design and build a Power BI executive dashboard focused on firm-wide KPIs, trends, and performance indicators
Translate spreadsheet-based data into a clean, optimized Power BI data model
Implement DAX measures for KPIs, time-based metrics, and rollups
Design visuals suitable for executive consumption (high signal, low noise, drill-down capable)
Data Architecture & Automation
Connect Power BI to firm-provided spreadsheets stored in secure cloud locations (e.g., SharePoint or OneDrive)
Configure automated data refresh via Power BI Service (scheduled refresh and monitoring)
Implement best practices for performance, data validation, and error handling
Ensure the solution continues to function independently after project completion
Security, Access & Governance
Work within a least-privilege access model
Use firm-owned service accounts for data refresh (no personal credentials)
Publish dashboards to firm-owned Power BI workspaces
Provide documentation covering data sources, refresh configuration, and maintenance steps
Access Model (Non-Negotiable)
Read-only access to designated reporting spreadsheets
Contributor or Member access to a specific Power BI workspace
No Microsoft 365 global admin access
No access to firm
All access is time-bound and revocable
Candidates must be comfortable delivering within these constraints.
Required Qualifications
Demonstrated experience building executive-level Power BI dashboards
Strong knowledge of Power BI Service, including publishing, scheduled refresh, and workspace permissions
Advanced proficiency in Power Query (M) and DAX
Solid data modeling skills (star schema, relationships, performance optimization)
Experience consolidating and automating spreadsheet-based reporting
Preferred Experience
Power BI solutions using SharePoint or OneDrive data sources
Professional services, legal, finance, or operations reporting environments
Experience documenting and handing off production dashboards to internal teams
Deliverables
Firm-owned Power BI dashboard published to Power BI Service
Automated refresh configured and tested
Clear documentation for data sources, refresh logic, and ongoing maintenance
Optional recommendations for future enhancements or scalability
Application Requirements
Please include:
Examples of Power BI dashboards you have built (screenshots or portfolio links)
A brief explanation of how you typically handle automated refresh and access control
Estimated timeline, budget and availability
Evaluation Process
Shortlisted candidates may be asked to complete a small, time-boxed sample exercise demonstrating data modeling, DAX usage, and executive dashboard design.
