Data Analyst Apprenticeship

This is an apprenticeship position; therefore, anyone who holds a degree or master's degree in a subject such as Data Science will not be eligible.

You will also need to commit to completing a Level 4 Data Analyst Apprenticeship.

What will you be doing?

We have a number of data analyst apprenticeship roles available, and the responsibilities and deliverables will vary, but example duties include:

  • Establish reporting needs and deliver insightful and accurate information.
  • Collect, compile, and cleanse data.
  • Identify, analyze, and interpret trends or patterns in data sets.
  • Summarize and present the results of data analysis to a range of stakeholders, making recommendations.
  • Interrogate and analyze data to root-cause data quality issues.

What do you need?

To be successful in this apprenticeship, you'll have high levels of accuracy and attention to detail. You should be competent in using Microsoft Excel and have a proven interest in data analysis (this could be from formal studies, self-study, or the workplace).

To be eligible for the apprenticeship, you also need to have a minimum of 5 GCSEs (grades 9-4 or A-C) including Maths and English. Some experience of using data tools (e.g., SQL, Python, Power BI, etc.) would be an advantage but not essential.

You must also meet the eligibility criteria in the government apprenticeship rules, including:

  • You must have the right to work in the UK.
  • Residency: You must meet one of the following:
    • A UK citizen who has been resident in the UK or EEA for the previous three years.
    • An EEA or Switzerland national who has obtained either pre-settled or settled status under the EUSS and has lived continuously in the EEA, Switzerland, Gibraltar, or the UK for at least the previous 3 years.
    • A non-UK national who has been ordinarily resident in the UK and Islands for at least the previous 3 years where no part of this period has been wholly or mainly for the purpose of receiving full-time education. E.g., time undertaking a degree or master's degree as an overseas student does not count towards the 3 years.
    • An individual with immigration or asylum-seeking status which makes you eligible to receive government apprenticeship funding.
  • Prior knowledge and skills: You must not hold a level 4 qualification or above in a related subject, e.g., a degree or master's degree in subjects including Maths, Data Analysis, Business Analytics, etc.
  • Government funded learning programmes: You must not be on another government funded learning programme.

What's in it for you?

You’ll be working towards your level 4 Data Analyst apprenticeship over 2 years to gain a recognised qualification alongside industry experts. As well as a salary of £23,000, you'll also be eligible for a new car every six months (as long as you have a full, clean UK driving licence). 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 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.

Our final step in the journey would be to attend a face-to-face assessment centre, where you will take part in a range of activities based on real-life tasks.

Successful candidates will be offered a place soon after the assessment centre for a September 2025 start.

Neurodiversity in Data Science Careers: Turning Different Thinking into a Superpower

Data science is all about turning messy, real-world information into decisions, products & insights. It sits at the crossroads of maths, coding, business & communication – which means it needs people who see patterns, ask unusual questions & challenge assumptions. That makes data science a natural fit for many neurodivergent people, including those with ADHD, autism & dyslexia. If you’re neurodivergent & thinking about a data science career, you might have heard comments like “you’re too distracted for complex analysis”, “too literal for stakeholder work” or “too disorganised for large projects”. In reality, the same traits that can make traditional environments difficult often line up beautifully with data science work. This guide is written for data science job seekers in the UK. We’ll explore: What neurodiversity means in a data science context How ADHD, autism & dyslexia strengths map to common data science roles Practical workplace adjustments you can request under UK law How to talk about your neurodivergence in applications & interviews By the end, you’ll have a clearer sense of where you might thrive in data science – & how to turn “different thinking” into a real career advantage.

Data Science Recruitment Trends 2025 (UK): What Job Seekers Need To Know About Today’s Hiring Process

Summary: UK data science hiring has shifted from title‑led CV screens to capability‑driven assessments that emphasise rigorous problem framing, high‑quality analytics & modelling, experiment/causality, production awareness (MLOps), governance/ethics, and measurable product or commercial impact. This guide explains what’s changed, what to expect in interviews & how to prepare—especially for product/data scientists, applied ML scientists, decision scientists, econometricians, growth/marketing analysts, and ML‑adjacent data scientists supporting LLM/AI products. Who this is for: Product/decision/data scientists, applied ML scientists, econometrics & causal inference specialists, experimentation leads, analytics engineers crossing into DS, ML generalists with strong statistics, and data scientists collaborating with platform/MLOps teams in the UK.

Why Data Science Careers in the UK Are Becoming More Multidisciplinary

Data science once meant advanced statistics, machine learning models and coding in Python or R. In the UK today, it has become one of the most in-demand professions across sectors — from healthcare to finance, retail to government. But as the field matures, employers now expect more than technical modelling skills. Modern data science is multidisciplinary. It requires not just coding and algorithms, but also legal knowledge, ethical reasoning, psychological insight, linguistic clarity and human-centred design. Data scientists are expected to interpret, communicate and apply data responsibly, with awareness of law, human behaviour and accessibility. In this article, we’ll explore why data science careers in the UK are becoming more multidisciplinary, how these five disciplines intersect with data science, and what job-seekers & employers need to know to succeed in this transformed field.
