Qualification: Level 4 Data Analyst Apprenticeship with BPP

Location: Edinburgh

Your data journey starts here. Show us what you’re made of. At Lloyds Banking Group, data isn’t just numbers on a screen. It’s the fuel for every decision we make, every problem we solve, every idea that takes us forward. We’re the UK’s biggest digital bank, with 23 million customers logging in, tapping and scrolling every day. And with £3bn a year going into cloud, AI and analytics, we’re serious about data shaping the future.

As a Data Apprentice, you’ll learn how to tame big, messy datasets, spot patterns no one else can see, and turn them into insights that make banking smarter, safer and simpler. Three to four years. Two apprenticeships. Unlimited potential.

Roles & Responsibilities

• SQL and advanced data joins (yes, the fun kind)
• Predictive modelling & forecasting (basically, time travel with stats)
• Data visualisation & storytelling (making numbers talk)
• Analytics lifecycles & data democratisation
• Statistical programming languages
• Building data products people actually use

Impact you could make

• Spot patterns that stop fraud before it happens
• Help millions of customers make smarter money choices
• Build dashboards that leaders can’t live without
• Make data accessible, ethical and useful for everyone

Your skills toolkit

• SQL, Python and other stats superpowers
• Visualisation that makes people go "ohhh, now I get it"
• Forecasting and modelling
• AI literacy and applied analytics
• Turning complexity into clarity

Support in your corner

Blended learning: real projects + classroom theory. Time carved out just for your development. A mentor, a manager and a buddy (because no one should debug alone). A community that shares your passion and goals.

Fully funded

We’ll cover your salary and fully fund your qualifications, setting you up for success with a level 4 apprenticeship in Applied Data and AI. You’ll gain hands-on experience working with some of the UK’s largest and most complex datasets, develop versatile skills that open doors across analytics and AI, and have the opportunity to progress to a Level 6 Degree Apprenticeship equipping you to grow from a specialist into a strategist.

Working conditions

Hybrid working policy requires office attendance at least two days per week (40% for full-time colleagues). Apprentices are expected to be in office most days during the initial settling-in period. If your commute exceeds 1.5 hours, we strongly recommend relocating closer to the office to ensure consistent attendance in line with contractual and hybrid working expectations.

Eligibility & Requirements

• Must be at least 18 years old by the end of February 2028
• National 5 Maths & English at grades A-C (Achieved)
• 4 Highers BBCC (these grades can be predicted, but any offer made to you will be conditional upon successful achievement of these qualifications)
• Must currently possess a valid Right to Work in the UK
• Visa end date must extend beyond the duration of the apprenticeship programme (up to five years)
• We’re unable to accept visa sponsorship for apprenticeship roles as the proposed salary for the role does not meet the minimum threshold

Benefits

• A generous pension contribution of up to 15%
• An annual performance-related bonus
• Share schemes including free shares
• Benefits you can adapt to your lifestyle, such as discounted shopping
• 22 days’ holiday, with bank holidays on top
• A range of wellbeing initiatives and generous parental leave policies

Equality and inclusion

Our ambition is to be the leading UK business for diversity, equity and inclusion supporting our customers, colleagues and communities and we’re committed to creating an environment in which everyone can thrive, learn and develop.

We were one of the first major organisations to set goals on diversity in senior roles, create a menopause health package, and a dedicated Working with Cancer Initiative.

We offer reasonable workplace adjustments for colleagues with disabilities, including flexibility in office attendance, location and working patterns.

As a Disability Confident Leader, we guarantee interviews for a fair and proportionate number of applicants who meet the minimum criteria for the role with a disability, long-term health or neurodivergent condition through the Disability Confident Scheme.

We provide reasonable adjustments throughout the recruitment process to reduce or remove barriers. Just let us know what you need.
