About the role
At Tesco, we believe in the power of spending more time together, face to face, than apart. So, during your working week, you can expect to spend 60% of your time in one of our office locations or local sites and the rest remotely. We also recognise that life looks a little different for each of us. Some people are at the start of their careers, some want the freedom to do the things they love. Others are going through life-changing moments like becoming a carer, nearing retirement, adapting to parenthood, or something else. That’s why at Tesco, we always welcome a conversation about flexible working. So, talk to us throughout your application about how we can support.
We’re on a mission to be every customer\'s favourite place to shop, whether in-store or online. Our Insight team plays a vital role in making that happen by understanding what our customers want and need, enabling us to make confident, data-driven decisions. Using advanced tools and technologies, we transform data into real insights, partnering with the wider business to create products and services that truly impact our customers.
We thrive in an inclusive and collaborative environment, where varied perspectives come together to make a positive difference. If you’re passionate about storytelling through data and want to be part of a team that’s focused on delivering significant change, we\'d love to hear from you!
