Working under the mentorship of experienced team members, you’ll assist the relevant teams in ensuring only the highest quality of software is reaching our customers.

  • Generating KPIs from the data and reporting this back to the team
  • Analysing and fixing errors that occur across platforms like Netflix and live TV

Bring your authentic self

We’re looking for confident individuals who aren’t afraid to share ideas and make recommendations to the wider team to influence improvements in our products. We'll encourage you to look closely at data and use this to tell a story, so it’s key that you have strong data analysis skills. Applicants must hold at least 5 GCSEs at Level 4-9, or equivalent, to be eligible for this role. Other qualities we’d like to see include:

You’ll be making a huge impact from day one. Enjoy a starting salary of £27,000, which will continue to rise as you progress through your apprenticeship. After 12-months in the scheme, your salary will raise to £30,000 with salaries upon successful completion starting from £35,000. Plus, you can enjoy our amazing benefits including:

  • 25 days holiday, increasing to 28 days after 5 years
