Could your military experience transfer into a career in Insight and Analytics?
We’re looking for a Senior Insight Analyst to lead a team delivering customer, business and predictive analytics that help shape strategic and operational decisions.

This could be a strong opportunity for veterans and service leavers with experience in intelligence, analysis, operations, planning, information management or leadership.

You don’t need to have held the job title “Data Analyst” in the military. The skills you’ve developed through service could be highly transferable.

Your military experience could be relevant if you have worked in:
Intelligence & analysis – assessing information, identifying trends, risks and opportunities, producing intelligence products and supporting decision making.
Operations & planning – analysing complex situations, developing options, forecasting, managing competing priorities and making evidence-based recommendations.
Command & leadership – leading teams, mentoring colleagues, allocating resources and managing performance.
Briefing & reporting – turning complex information into clear reports, briefings and recommendations for senior decision makers.
Risk & threat assessment – identifying emerging risks, analysing information and recommending appropriate action.
Investigations – gathering and evaluating evidence, identifying patterns and reaching objective conclusions.
Information & technology – working with databases, information systems, spreadsheets, intelligence platforms or other analytical tools.
Project delivery – managing projects, stakeholders, deadlines and competing requirements.
Transferable skills we’re looking for
Critical thinking • Data & information analysis • Problem solving • Intelligence • Planning • Risk assessment • Leadership • Stakeholder management • Reporting & briefing • Research • Decision making • Project management • Communication

Experience with SQL, data visualisation, statistical analysis, predictive analytics or large datasets would be advantageous.

Could you already be qualified?
If your military career has involved making sense of complex information, identifying patterns and risks, advising senior leaders, producing intelligence or reports, leading people and turning analysis into action, you may already have many of the core skills required for this role.

Don’t focus solely on your military job title. Focus on what you actually did, the skills you developed and the decisions or outcomes you influenced.

Your military experience could be the foundation for your next career in Insight and Analytics.
