Job Description

The Role

We are looking for a Junior Insights Analyst to join the analytics function. You’ll work alongside our existing Insights team, using analytics and automation together: turning data into insight, then using tools like Power Automate and AI to act on it faster.

You’ll start with the fundamentals. You’ll first be trained in the core analytical skills, including SQL, Power BI and advanced Excel, so you have a firm grounding in how to work with data properly. From there, you’ll build on that foundation through learning Power Automate and how to apply AI, working on real business problems from day one.

Key Responsibilities

Explore and test AI tools to improve how we analyse data, summarise information and streamline tasks

Analyse data across the group to identify trends, inefficiencies and opportunities

Design and build automated workflows in Power Automate to remove manual, repetitive processes

Work with stakeholders to understand their processes and spot where automation or AI could add genuine business value

Translate findings into clear, actionable recommendations

Collaborate with teams across Buying & Merchandising, Digital, Retail and the wider business

Qualifications

We’re looking for someone with a genuine interest in analytics and automation, but your mindset matters more to us than your CV. If you’re missing some of the technical skills below, we’ll help you build them.

What we’re really looking for

Enthusiasm for AI and automation, and a drive to experiment and share what you learn

Strong analytical and problem-solving skills

A ‘think outside the box’ mindset, always looking for new and better ways to approach things.

Persistence when working through complex or ambiguous problems

Clear communication, able to explain technical ideas to non-technical colleagues

Ability to take ownership of projects, align stakeholders and work collaboratively to deliver successful outcomes.

Experience that will help (not all required)

Experience using AI tools (e.g. Copilot Studio, Gemini Enterprise, Claude) to solve problems, drive efficiencies or add business value

Some experience with Excel, Power BI, SQL or similar tools, whether from a degree, a previous role, an internship or personal projects

Exposure to Power Automate or other automation tools
