This role shapes how data science and AI are used across Heathrow.

It sets direction for enterprise analytics and AI services that support safe, efficient and reliable airport operations.

The role oversees Data Science and AI services across multiple business areas. It ensures AI use is responsible, well-governed and delivers clear value. It also supports senior decision-making through insight and evidence.

With 80 million passengers passing through our airport each year, it takes hundreds of systems, platforms and networks to keep our airport running smoothly, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.

Join us, and you’ll thrive on the buzz of providing the technology, data, cyber and digital capabilities that run all the services you’d expect to see in a city – and more. Tech at Heathrow isn’t typical – the scale and non-stop nature of our airport make it truly unique.

Our Data, Digital and Technology team are leading the way in innovations that will make our airport more efficient, resilient and competitive, in an increasingly digital marketplace, as well as keeping Heathrow safe and secure.

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.
