Introducing the Opportunity
Customer Experience brings together teams that help the organisation understand customers, build workforce capability and improve how we engage across channels. During this internship, you will contribute to practical projects across Customer Facing Experience, Data, Insights & Analytics, and Learning & Development.

- Help maintain data quality by checking and cleaning data, managing data-quality tickets and updating Data Lakehouse documentation.
- Assist with market research coordination, non-trial activity processes and selected Python application development, including user-experience design, data transformation and coding.
- Support Learning & Development communications, learning pathways, internal intranet content, training curricula and evaluation reporting.
- Analyse internal and external information, create clear materials from complex sources and contribute ideas, tools and solutions that the team can test and learn from.
