Consumer Research and Data Insights Internship

Job ID 10162331 Location London, United Kingdom Business The Walt Disney Company (EMEA) Date posted Oct. 13, 2026

Ready to make magic? We’re hiring for our 12-month undergraduate placement schemes.

We’re recruiting several Consumer Research & Data Insights Intern roles across the business. If you’re selected, you will be placed in one of Disney’s following business lines: Disney+, Media Networks (Kids, Factual, Entertainment and Sports TV channels), Ad Sales Insights, Product & Technology, Content Development & Licensing, Studios, Consumer Products or Parks & Resorts.

By collaborating with third-party agencies and internal teams, you will assist in gathering, checking and analysing data to deliver best‑in‑class insights that inform and support business strategies across the Europe, Middle East, and Africa (EMEA) region.

You will be integral in ensuring the quality and usability of data and insights, ultimately contributing to actionable, data-driven and visually engaging recommendations that influence business operations, across the Disney portfolio of brands (Disney, Pixar, Marvel, Lucasfilm, National Geographic, ESPN, Disney+ etc.). Some roles will influence marketing, some others will have an impact on content, some on social media, or brand, or commercial strategies – more details specific to your role will be shared during the recruitment process.

You’ll join a team grounded in our Disney values; acting with Integrity, welcoming everyone through Inclusion, embracing boundless Creativity, working together through Collaboration and caring deeply for our Community. These values shape how we work and how we support one another every day.

While all the roles we have on offer share much common ground, some lean a bit more into Consumer Research, some lean more into Data Analytics and Operations and some are a mix of both. If you have a preference, please note this in your cover letter.

• Must be a second-year undergraduate student on a placement year course returning to study in Autumn 2028
• Must have the right to work in the UK already in place
• Available to start working full time from June 2027
• Interested in the area you are applying for, whether this is through your studies, experiences, extracurricular activities or a general interest

About you

• A strong interest and curiosity in data, consumer research and analytics
• Attention to detail and the ability to deal with ambiguity to make sense of complex data sets
• A clear and confident communicator – able to present findings in a range of formats to technical and non-technical audiences
• Ability to prioritise tasks, meet deadlines and demonstrate good organisational skills
• Competent at Microsoft Office, including Excel and PowerPoint, with the openness to develop further technical software skills
• Familiarity with data visualisation tools or techniques (e.g. charts, dashboards, infographics) is a plus

The Perks

• Develop your workplace skills and experience to help build the foundations of your future career
• Constructive on-the-job training as well as companywide learning and development initiatives
• Learn how decisions and actions are made within a global business environment
• Tackle real responsibility and become an essential part of an encouraging team
