Data Analyst apprentice

Overview

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. You will learn from experts in their field, develop your technical and professional skills, and grow your confidence in a collaborative and innovative environment. You will complete a structured training programme with our chosen provider, who will guide you throughout your apprenticeship journey.

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

• Present ideas and findings clearly in meetings
