You'll prepare supporting Technical Reports detailing the calculation methodology for each measure contained within the Wales Transport Strategy Monitoring Framework to ensure the data and calculation methodologies can be understood by a range of audiences.
You'll also provide support and guidance on representative survey sample sizes, sampling techniques and confidence intervals by applying specialist technical knowledge to ensure survey data can be used to track changes against key TfW and Welsh Government targets and enhance our current evidence base.

You’ll need to have:
- Degree level qualification in a relevant numerate discipline, such as statistics, social research or psychology.
- Demonstrable experience of applying mathematical and statistical techniques when working with and interrogating large datasets.
- Experience of preparing complex data tables for publication.
