Generating reports and dashboards to communicate findings to stakeholders

As part of the Level 3 Data Technician apprenticeship standard, you’ll be on track to an industry recognised qualification and your dedicated industry coach will support you through a blended approach that will include remote, in person, 1-2-1 and group learning.

To be successful in this apprenticeship you'll have high levels of accuracy and attention to detail. You should be familiar with Excel, have strong analytical and problem-solving skills and enjoy gathering and manipulating data from a range of sources.

You’ll receive 27 days holiday – plus bank holidays, access to our pension scheme, employee well-being support, on-site restaurant and shopping discounts.

What's the assessment process?

Once you hit the apply button, you'll be taken to our careers site where you will be asked to submit an application form with CV and answer a couple of video interview questions so that we have a chance to get to know a little more about you.
