This is an outstanding opportunity to work in a team delivering regulatory and technology change! The Data Engineer will focus on assisting in the design, development, and maintenance of Data Product pipelines, gaining practical experience whilst working under the guidance of senior data engineers.

If this excites you then you would be an asset to our team!


We are pioneering the transformation of current processes from our on-premises platforms and have started our journey in deploying solutions on the Google Cloud Platform. This role sits within our Platforms Analytics Lab who are looking to create strategic data products and build data and analytics capability.


We work using agile delivery practices, so a self-led individual capable of accurately estimating and planning their own work would be valued highly.
