Marketing Analyst Apprentice

Full time, apprenticeship 14-16 months

The Marketing Analyst Apprentice performs an exciting role at MSC UK. You will learn how to apply analysis and interpretation skills that provide important commercial information and knowledge to MSC UK. The role will support the Senior Market Intelligence & Customer Insight Specialist to analyse a variety of data sources and use these to identify external opportunities, risks and market trends.

You will utilise Microsoft Excel, PowerBI and other tools to analyse and draw meaning from a range of data sources. By playing a supporting role in bringing the insights that are buried in our data to the surface, you will help provide the visibility required to identify new commercial opportunities, define target audiences and ultimately grow our business.

This Level 4 Apprenticeship covers the fundamentals of data, advanced data analytics, programming languages, SQL, machine learning, AI & statistical analysis. Around half your time in this role will involve dealing with data.

This programme will take between 14-16 months to complete.

How you will help us and what you can expect

  • Utilise a range of tools and methods to gather customer and market data such as macroeconomic trends, competitor information, customer feedback, commodities shipped, trades utilised and product uptake
  • Make effective use of available tools such as Power BI to assist with analysis of large volumes of market and customer data
  • Support with the creation of presentations and reports that clearly identify commercial implications, opportunities and potential next actions

Where to Advertise Data Science Jobs in the UK (2026 Guide)

Where to advertise data science jobs UK in 2026: the specialist boards, communities and channels that actually reach senior and lead data science talent. Data science spans a broad and often misunderstood spectrum — from statistical modelling and experimental design through to machine learning engineering, product analytics and AI research. The strongest candidates identify firmly with specific subdisciplines and are frustrated by adverts that conflate data scientist with data analyst, business intelligence developer or machine learning engineer. General job boards produce high application volumes for data roles but consistently fail to match specialist data science profiles with the right opportunities. This guide, published by DataScienceJobs.co.uk, covers where to advertise data science roles in the UK in 2026, how the main platforms compare, what employers should expect to pay, and what the data says about hiring across different role types.

Data Science Jobs UK 2026: What to Expect Over the Next 3 Years

Data Science Jobs UK 2026: roles, salaries and the trends shaping UK data science hiring over the next three years — from MLE crossover to GenAI workflows. Data science has spent the past decade being described as the sexiest job of the twenty-first century. By 2026, the reality is both more nuanced and more interesting than that label ever suggested. The discipline has matured, fragmented, deepened, and in some respects reinvented itself — and the jobs market has changed with it in ways that create genuine opportunity for those who understand what employers actually want, and genuine difficulty for those still operating on assumptions formed five years ago. The data science jobs market of 2026 is not simply a larger version of what it was three years ago. The generalist data scientist — equally comfortable wrangling data, building models, and presenting insights to the board — is giving way to a more specialised landscape where employers know exactly what problem they are trying to solve and are looking for candidates with the specific depth to solve it. Machine learning engineering, causal inference, experimentation, AI product development, and domain-specific applied science have all emerged as distinct career tracks within what was previously a single, loosely defined profession. At the same time, the arrival of large language models and the broader AI capability wave has both threatened and created data science roles in equal measure. Some of the work that junior data scientists spent their early careers doing — data cleaning, exploratory analysis, basic model building — is being partially automated by AI tooling. But the demand for practitioners who can evaluate AI systems rigorously, apply statistical thinking to complex business problems, and build the data foundations on which AI depends has grown considerably. The candidates who will thrive over the next three years are those who understand where the discipline is heading — which specialisms are attracting the most investment, which technologies are reshaping what data scientists are expected to build and know, and how to position a data science career that will remain valuable as the field continues to evolve around them. This article breaks down what the UK data science jobs market is likely to look like through to 2028 — covering the titles emerging right now, the technologies driving employer demand, the skills that will matter most, and how to position your career ahead of the curve.
