Job Description

Business Analyst Higher Apprenticeship

Want to kick-start your career in tech and governance?

At Computacenter, we connect people and technology to shape the future. You’ll join our Global Information Services (GIS) team, helping keep projects on track and governance running smoothly. Think of it as the backbone of IT – making sure everything is organised, compliant, and efficient.

You’ll learn how major IT projects are delivered, get hands-on experience with governance frameworks, and build real-world skills that will set you up for an exciting long-term career in tech and business analysis.

What You’ll Be Doing

You’ll work towards your Business Analyst Level 4 qualification while gaining real-world experience. Around 80% of your time will be on the job, and 20% focused on learning.

Here’s what you’ll get involved in:

  • Organising governance meetings and keeping everything running smoothly.
  • Tracking decisions and actions so projects stay on track.
  • Supporting audits, compliance checks, and documentation updates.
  • Pulling together project reports and dashboards for leadership.
  • Gathering data for KPIs and contributing to monthly performance reports.
  • Supporting governance communications and working with teams across the business.

You’ll be supported by experienced colleagues, receive guidance when you need it, and gain exposure to a wide range of IT and business disciplines.

What You’ll Need

  • 2 GCSEs at grade C/4 or above, including English and Maths.
  • You must hold a Level 3 qualification (preferably in Business or STEM) or 3 A Levels
  • Good organisational skills and attention to detail.
  • Confidence using Microsoft Office tools.
  • A positive attitude and willingness to learn.
  • An interest in tech, governance, and building a long-term career in IT.

Important Eligibility Information

Please note that for successful applicants, offers will be conditional on passing additional eligibility checks with our training provider. These checks include a Maths and English assessment and a review of any previous qualifications you hold.

Due to apprenticeship funding requirements, applicants must not already hold a BA (Hons) in Business Management, a BSc (Hons) in Computing & IT & Business, or an equivalent qualification. To be eligible for this programme, you must hold a Level 3 qualification (preferably in Business or STEM) and have GCSEs in English and Maths.
