About The Role
The Organisational Performance & Benchmarking Analyst reports to the Senior Organisation Performance Lead within the Business Architecture team, part of BT Group's Strategy & Change function. The team helps shape how BT measures, understands and improves organisational performance across the Group, supporting strategic decision-making and transformation activity.
You will support the development and operation of BT Group's organisational performance framework by providing robust analysis, benchmarking and insight. Working across Strategy, Finance, Transformation, Data and business units, you will help create a clear view of organisational performance, productivity, efficiency and value.

Over time, you will play a key role in building BT Group's organisational benchmarking capability through the application of AI, automation and advanced analytics. This includes exploring how publicly available data can be sourced, structured and interrogated at scale, enabling BT to move from periodic benchmarking studies to a continuously evolving insight capability that supports strategic decision-making and organisational performance improvement.

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.
