IT/Data Analyst Degree Apprenticeship - Leeds

IT/Data Analyst Degree Apprenticeship - Leeds

Role Mission:

As an IT/Data Analyst Apprentice within our digital team focused on manufacturing, your mission is to harness data analysis and IT capabilities to enhance production processes, optimize manufacturing tools' performance, and extract valuable insights. This plays a pivotal role in advancing our digital manufacturing solutions and driving operational excellence. The Leeds plant of Schneider Electric typically focuses on manufacturing and assembling electrical distribution and control equipment. This may include products like switchgear, transformers, and various other components that support energy management and automation solutions.

Key Responsibilities:

• Understand the suite of digital tools used in Schneider Electric and support their deployment and utilization.
• Support production in their day-to-day activities and their use of digital tools.
• Ensure data integrity, security and compliance with respect to data golden rules and cybersecurity.
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams to understand data requirements.
• Developing and maintaining data models and databases to support manufacturing analytics and reporting needs.

Training:

During your apprenticeship, you will receive two different types of training.

‘On-the-job’ training will be delivered by Schneider Electric, as your employer. You’ll receive training and supervision to help you perform the job you’ve been hired to do. This will include skills and knowledge that fall outside of the apprenticeship but are needed for the job role. As well as providing ‘on-the-job’ training, it is important that we support you in additional ways to ensure your success.

Types of support will include:

• A comprehensive induction
• Mentoring or regular one-to-one guidance
• Social enrichment and networking opportunities
• Performance reviews
• Mental health and wellbeing support
• Feedback opportunities

‘Off-the-job’ training is delivered by one of our carefully selected Training Providers during your normal working hours. You will spend at least 20% (average 6 hours per week) of your working hours completing ‘off-the-job’ training. This is protected time and is a requirement for apprenticeship delivery. This training will teach you the knowledge, skills, and behaviours set out in the apprenticeship standard so you can achieve occupational competence.

Work Pattern

37.5 hours per week to be worked from Monday to Friday.

Exact start and finish times are to be agreed upon with Line Manager. Some of these hours will be allocated to off-the-job training as part of your Apprenticeship Programme.
