Data Technician Apprentice

If you’re methodical, patient with repetitive tasks and keen to build a career working with data, this is an excellent opportunity. You don’t need industry knowledge or technical expertise to start – just a positive attitude, willingness to learn and the drive to grow your skills in a professional, friendly, workplace.

Role

  • Support the roll-out of a new Product Information Management (PIM) system.
  • Upload, categorise and maintain product information so it’s accurate, consistent and easy to use.
  • Prepare and organise data from multiple sources, checking for errors and inconsistencies.
  • Standardise data formats and ensure records are complete.
  • Create simple reports to track progress and highlight trends.
  • Work closely with colleagues across different departments to understand their needs and share accurate data.
  • Stay curious – learning new tools, best practice and ways to make data management more efficient.

Training

This apprenticeship offers a fantastic opportunity to gain hands-on experience in a supportive role, while being paid to learn. You’ll spend part of your working week attending online classes, completing modules and gaining recognised certificates - all funded by the employer - and then immediately apply that learning in your day-to-day role.

In this job you'll study towards the Level 3 Data Technician apprenticeship where you'll receive upto £12,000 worth of training. Over the 18-month programme you’ll build skills in:
- Data collection, cleaning and preparation.
- Using digital tools to identify trends and insights.
- Presenting information clearly through reports and visuals.
- Understanding how data underpins business decisions.


You’ll be supported every day by friendly colleagues who know their stuff and want you to succeed. You'll also complete Functional Skills in English and maths if required. On completion, it’s highly likely a permanent role will be available within WISKA, along with further progression opportunities.
