This two-year programme provides the role holder with the opportunity to develop hands-on capability across NHBC's digital landscape, gaining experience in data, systems, innovation, development and digital security. The role supports NHBC's ambition to embed data, analytics and technology into everyday decision making.

Through three six-month rotations within Digital Services — followed by a dedicated project — you will learn how data, AI, automation and modern digital tools enable NHBC to raise standards, improve decision-making and protect homeowners. You will contribute to live delivery from day one, working alongside product, data, architecture, engineering and governance teams to support strategic priorities.

  • Support the development of data pipelines, dashboards, models and other insight-generating tools
  • Identify opportunities for automation and support AI proofs-of-concept and pilots
  • Assist in strengthening digital governance, security and responsible technology practices
  • Support improvements to system architecture, cloud-based tooling and data platforms
  • Collaborate with colleagues across the business to help translate insight into action
  • Produce reports, presentations and communication materials suitable for varied audiences
  • Actively participate in programme activities, training, mentoring and NHBC-wide initiatives

What we're looking for

  • Degree (or equivalent) in a STEM, data, digital, technology or relevant analytical discipline
  • Strong IT capability with the ability to quickly adopt new tools and platforms
  • Good communication skills: able to explain technical ideas clearly to non-technical audiences
  • Curiosity about how systems and processes work, with a passion for technology and data
  • Adaptable, collaborative, proactive and comfortable working in agile environments
  • Strong analytical and problem-solving skills with excellent attention to detail

Desirable skills

  • SQL or other query languages
  • Cloud tools (e.g., Google Cloud Platform)
  • Visualisation tools and data storytelling
  • Version control, APIs, automation techniques
  • Experience gained through internships or projects in digital, data or technology environments
