Our ways of working

So, we build equity and inclusion into everything we do, from the policies we craft to the relationships we shape. We support and encourage you to be your authentic self throughout your application journey with us.

In order to be considered, you must have the following experience;

• Previous demonstrable experience in a similar Engagement/Demand Analyst role in a complex, fast moving, environment with multiple 3rd party suppliers
• Strong experience of data analysis, including performance reporting and forecasting
• Experience in budget management and financial modelling
• Demonstrated experience of driving process improvements and embedding new ways of working
• Essential working knowledge of Jira and Confluence
  
  

The other stuff we are looking for

We'd also love you to bring;

• A collaborative and proactive approach, with the ability to work effectively across multiple departments.
• Strong communication skills and the ability to manage competing priorities
• Solid experience using Microsoft Office applications, particularly Excel
• Familiarity with Clarity would be advantageous

Our goal is to celebrate our people, their lives and everything in-between. We aim to create a culture that empowers everyone to bring the best versions of themselves to work each and every day. We believe the most inclusive and diverse culture makes for a better business and a brighter world.

Working at Virgin Media O2, you get a bumper reward package bursting with benefits, and loads of extras you can add if you’d like to. These are designed to support both you and your loved ones, making sure that you’re covered no matter what life throws your way.

Next steps

If we feel like a place where you can belong, we'd love to learn more about you as a person and your experience to date. Once you've submitted an application the next steps of the process, if successful, are likely to include a personality profile assessment followed by a competency-based interview.

When you apply, you'll be asked about any adjustments you might need to support the recruitment process. Let us know, and we'll be sure to discuss it with you.

Please note: Applications will be reviewed, and interviews conducted throughout the duration of this advert, therefore we may bring the closing date forward. We encourage all interested applicants to apply as soon as possible. If you’re offered a job with us, it will be conditional, based on the passing of background checks. All roles require a criminal record check and some roles need a financial probity check. Your recruiter can provide you with more information if needed.

Thanks for your patience and for showing an interest in joining the Virgin Media O2 family.
