Reporting to the Data & Products Manager within the Process, Change and Readiness (PCR) Team in Development, this managerial role offers an exciting opportunity to help shape Heathrow’s continuous improvement journey through the power of data and analytics. The team’s ambition is to create a culture where every process, system, service and product continually evolves to deliver greater value, and the Data Analyst plays a key role in turning data into actionable insights that help teams understand what is working well today and what can be improved for tomorrow. Working closely with colleagues across PCR, project teams and stakeholders from across the business, you will lead and deliver data and analytics initiatives that enhance efficiency, quality, service and overall value for passengers, stakeholders and employees. In addition to core analytical responsibilities, you will contribute to the delivery of the team’s strategic priorities, with a particular focus on Tools & Standards and the ongoing development of Heathrow’s Process Intelligence capability.
Using agile ways of working, you will manage and deliver a diverse range of analytical activities, including requirements gathering, data analysis, visualisation, modelling, KPI development, data mining and storytelling. Drawing on multiple data sources from historical performance and future forecasts to operational observations—you will create enriched insights and visual solutions that support informed decision-making and business improvement. This is an ideal opportunity for someone who enjoys solving complex problems, uncovering meaningful insights and translating data into compelling stories that drive action. Success in the role requires strong analytical thinking, curiosity to explore new tools and technologies, and the ability to build trusted relationships across a complex stakeholder environment. By understanding business needs and delivering high-quality solutions that align with stakeholder expectations, you will play an important role in advancing Heathrow’s Process Improvement and Data Analytics strategy while creating lasting value across the organisation.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
