Data and Technology are key components of Admiral’s Data departments, which is at the heart of what we do and how we achieve our goals of helping more people to look after their future and to evolve our business into one that is even more agile, and technology driven.  

From the beginning, we’ve offered our customers access to financial protection by pricing fairly and competitively. As we grow, big data and analytics are increasingly important in how we create more opportunities to provide people with access to great financial services products and accelerate the growth of our business. Above all else, we are a company that continues to put the customer at the forefront and seeks to leverage even more data and advanced analytics to improve their experience.

If you’re a STEM graduate with a passion for Data, people and problem-solving, our Data Analytics Graduate Programme is the perfect opportunity for you to kick start your career in Data Science and Analytics. You’ll benefit from hands-on, practical placements supported by industry leaders (many of whom joined Admiral as graduates fresh from university).

This programme runs just over 2-years, a total of 25 months, including our initial induction/training and then your placements. You’ll have the option to rotate through three data analyst areas which could include MI (Management Information), Data Science, Telematics Data, Motor Product Insight and Claims Solutions. Within these rotations you’ll get hands on experience with our different tools for interrogating data, reporting and visualising insights. You’ll be responsible for helping different business areas understand their data and use it to make great data decisions.

We’re looking for logical, mathematically minded people with an analytical way of thinking developed through a degree such as Maths, Physics, Engineering, Chemistry, Biology or similar. We firmly believe that the transferable skills developed in your degree put you in a strong position to learn to model and manipulate data to solve business problems across Admiral. We don’t expect any previous financial services knowledge or industry experience as you’ll learn this on the job.
