Analytics & Optimisation Analyst

About the Role

The successful applicant will join the Analytics and Optimisation team within the Technology Product department. This team supports a market-leading online groceries proposition, a new Marketplace proposition, the Clubcard proposition, and digital in-store entities.

The Analytics and Optimisation team provides insight and learning to the Product, Trading, and UX teams, helping drive data-driven decision-making. The role is focused on advancing optimisation practices to establish a best-in-class testing programme.

Key Responsibilities

This position reports to the Analytics Manager for Optimisation. While responsibilities may evolve with Tesco’s business needs, core duties include:

  • Analysing test results in Loyalty & Support product spaces, delivering simple yet engaging insights with actionable recommendations to improve digital products and customer experiences.
  • Analysing customer behaviour using big data from multiple sources, collaborating with the UX research team to identify CX improvement opportunities.
  • Ensuring test reliability through appropriate statistical testing methods applied to test data.
  • Continuously evaluating and improving the AB test analysis process, exploring efficiency enhancements.
  • Investigating automation opportunities for existing analysis workflows to streamline decision-making for Optimisation Managers and stakeholders.
  • Partnering with the Analytics Capabilities team to guarantee robust tracking and measurement in place.
  • Presenting insights clearly to audiences, including Product, UX, and Engineering teams.
  • Collaborating with the finance team to deliver accurate and representative financial benefit forecasts.
  • Mentoring Associate Optimisation Analysts in their role.

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.
