We believe that through collaboration and connection with our colleagues we can achieve great things. Our hybrid working approach allows our people to work both in the office and at home, providing the flexibility and resources you need to succeed in your role. We don't require you to be in on specific days; instead, we ask people to come into the office 2-3 days each week, for at least 8 days per month. You should work with your line manager to understand what their expectations are for you, your specific role and your team.

We’re here to build a network the UK can count on – one that connects people, places and potential. Because no matter where you live, what your background is, or how you get online – we think everyone deserves the same chance to stay connected, and with VodafoneThree, that future’s being built – today.

We’re creating more than the UK’s best network. We’re helping close the digital divide, empower communities and drive meaningful progress.

We believe that everyone should feel they belong. Whoever you are and whatever your story, there’s space for you here. We’re building a workplace where different perspectives are welcomed, voices are heard, and everyone feels safe to show up as themselves.

You’ll join a team that genuinely cares – about each other, about our customers, and about the future we’re building. From day one, you’ll be welcomed, valued and encouraged to bring your whole self to work.

We move at pace, because what we’re building matters – and we’re learning as we go. We’re proud of the progress we’ve made, but we’re just getting started.

Be a part of Vodafone UK Consumer team where creating and developing products, services and propositions is at the forefront.

• Partner with Trading, Finance, Product and Retention teams to evaluate strategic opportunities, build business cases and support the launch of new propositions and customer initiatives.
• Turn complex customer, market and financial data into clear, decision-ready insight, presenting recommendations and commentary to senior leaders and governance forums.
• Act as a subject matter expert for customer-base performance, commercial analytics and forecasting, identifying opportunities to improve business performance while ensuring the integrity and accuracy of reporting.
• Collaborate across Vodafone and Three teams to align strategic assumptions, share expertise and help shape a consistent view of customer, commercial and market performance during a period of significant transformation.

Who you are

• Advanced SQL and data analysis expertise, with a proven ability to work with large, complex customer datasets to generate meaningful commercial insight.
• Strong forecasting, financial modelling and analytical skills, with experience supporting business planning, budgeting and long-term strategic decision-making.
• Deep understanding of customer economics within a subscription-based or telecommunications environment, including acquisition, retention, pricing, upgrades and customer lifecycle performance.
• Demonstrated ability to link customer behaviour and operational activity to commercial outcomes, translating data into actionable recommendations that drive revenue, profitability and customer value.
• Experience developing management information, performance reporting, scorecards and business cases that support senior stakeholder decision-making and governance processes.
• Excellent problem-solving and data governance capabilities, with a track record of identifying issues, conducting root-cause analysis and improving reporting accuracy and data quality.
