Data Analyst Higher Apprenticeship

Data Analyst Higher Apprenticeship

The Data Analyst Apprenticeship Programme at Motability Operations is an exciting opportunity to take your first steps into a rewarding career at a high performing organisation.

Over the 18-month programme, we will support you as you combine work and study. You will work towards a Level 4 Data Analyst qualification while becoming a valued member of a well-established and respected team.

You will build your knowledge of data analysis by working alongside experienced colleagues on meaningful projects across the business.

This apprenticeship offers an alternative route into a successful organisation outside of the traditional university pathway.

• Testing and supporting automation

You will often be one of the first people to interact with new data. You will help classify andcleanse it, and work closely with data engineers. You will also support colleagues across the business to understand the value of their data and the insights it can provide.

As part of your development, you will build the skills to:

• Analyse and evaluate data in different formats such as database tables, JSON and CSV
• Work with databases, including SQL and data structures
• Collaborate closely within your team and across the business
• Work in an agile development environment
• Help define and maintain technical and business processes
