Help us inovate with data
Every time a customer uses one of our apps, buys something, or looks at one of our products online, they generate data. Making great use of that data helps us grow, prepare for the future, and improve lives. That’s where our Data Science and Analytics teams come in.
Working with some of the UK's largest datasets, covering millions of customers and transactions, they use machine learning, AI, and advanced analytics to create cutting-edge solutions. This provides countless opportunities to improve things for our 22 million digitally active customers.
Right now, we’re looking for graduates to join these talented, collaborative teams. If you're obsessed with data and its possibilities, this is your moment.

If you want to work in data, wouldn’t you want to work where the scale of data is off the scale? Somewhere that will support you to achieve all you want from a career? That’s exactly what we offer.

Start with a bootcamp to quickly get you up to speed with our Group and how Data Science and Analytics will play a vital for our future, then over the two years you’ll rotate through three eight-month placements within teams across the Group. You’ll experience agile ways of working, play to your strengths, and grow beyond them with training and networking that’s tailored to your needs and interests.
You’ll be matched up with a buddy or mentor to support you and offer guidance throughout the scheme, and you’ll have access to technical and business-aligned training, including platforms such as Viva Learning and other Learning Management Systems, to further help your development.
With opportunities for extracurricular activities to expand your skills and experience across the bank and with introductions to colleague networks, you’ll make great connections to further your career.
