Senior Analyst – Operations Insight & Improvement

Luton/Hybrid

Team

Our Operations Insight & Improvement team plays a key role in keeping our operation running smoothly. The team uses data and insights to spot trends, understand what’s driving performance, and identify opportunities to make things better for our people and our customers. With ambitious goals across the operation, this team helps shape how we work today – and how we’ll improve tomorrow.

What you’ll be doing

As a Senior Analyst, you’ll be right at the heart of how we turn data into action. You’ll own and develop the tools that help us understand what’s driving on-time performance across our network, using data and insight to highlight where we can make the biggest impact.

You’ll bring stories to life through clear, engaging visuals and analysis, helping teams across Operations understand what’s working and what needs to change. Working closely with our IT and Data Science teams, you’ll build models, dashboards and processes that make decision-making simpler and smarter.

It’s a varied role where you’ll get to test ideas, find patterns, and help shape solutions that directly improve the reliability of our operation – and ultimately, the experience our customers have every day.

What you’ll bring to the team

You’ll have solid experience working with data to solve real problems, ideally in a commercial or operational setting. You’ll be comfortable working with SQL and either Python or R, and know your way around tools like Tableau, PowerBI or similar to bring insights to life.

You’ll have a genuine curiosity about how things work and enjoy using data to make a difference. You’ll be confident explaining your findings to a range of stakeholders, comfortable managing your own workload, and thrive in a fast-paced environment where things can change quickly.

If you love turning numbers into stories, spotting trends others might miss, and want to help shape the future of one of Europe’s leading airlines – this could be the role for you.

What we offer in return

• Competitive base salary
• Up to 20% bonus
• 25 days holiday
• BAYE, SAYE & Performance share schemes
• 7% pension
• Life Assurance
• Flexible benefits package
• Excellent staff travel benefits
• Private healthcare
