    Data Apprentice - Newcastle upon Tyne, United Kingdom - QA Ltd

    Default job background
    Full time
    Description

    Employer Description:

    Differentology is a new breed research company, using technology to gain insights. We have an enviable client list (including Samsung, The Times, BSkyB and Santander... to name a few).

    Overview:

    We are now looking for an eager candidate to join us as an apprentice.

    You will join a small team of experienced professionals who have built up a reputation for delivering some of the most high profile and innovative projects in media.

    You will be responsible for the analysis of quantitative survey data, investigating the effectiveness of specific client advertising campaigns. A key part of the job role involves ensuring that returned data is properly processed and analysed, and compiling data outputs into reports on a regular basis.

    Duties:

    • Scripting: The data technician will be involved in converting Word questionnaires into on-line surveys. The software used, Askia, allows a great deal of this through a simple visual interface, although there is some requirement for basic HTML and learning Askia's own scripting language.
    • Fieldwork management: The data technician will work with external companies to channel respondents into surveys and help ensure that quotas are filled, and the appropriate number of responses are collected
    • Data cleanse: Once a survey is complete the data technician will be responsible for reviewing the data and applying our quality control tests, identifying and removing responses which do not meet the required standard.
    • Post-coding: In cases where an open (free text) question has been asked the technician will need to code those responses into a closed question (a list of brands, for example), to allow for quantitative reporting.
    • Data-table generation: Askia is used to format the data into data tables, which are then exported to Excel, for delivery to the research teams.
    • Checking: At every step of the process every analysts work is checked by another member of the team, based on a QA checklist. Once the technician is competent in the procedures themselves, they will assist in checking the work of other team members.
    • Data entry: There is a small requirement for some data entry into Differentology's business development system. This is just adding new contacts and will not be more than 1-2 hours per week.

    What we are looking for: Skills and aptitudes:

    • Strong analytical skills
    • Ability to work with numerical data
    • Tenacious attention to detail and accuracy
    • Good organisational skills
    • Ability to work under pressure and meet tight deadlines
    • Can-do attitude
    • The desire to work hard and prove yourself
    • Experience of SPSS (or similar statistical software) is an advantage
    • Experience in a statistical science and / or mathematics is an advantage

    Entry requirements:

    • 3 GCSE's (or equivalent) at grades 4+ (A-C) in any subject
    • GCSE Maths and English (or equivalents) at grades 3+ (D or above)
    • Prospective apprentices must not hold an existing qualification at the same or higher level as this apprenticeship in a similar subject

    You may also have a combination of qualifications and experience which demonstrate the minimum foundation needed for the programme. In this instance you could still be considered for the programme.

    If you hold international equivalents of the above qualifications, at the time of your application you must be able to provide an official document that states how your international qualifications compare to the UK qualifications.

    For more information, please visit the UK ENIC website.

    Working week:

    Monday to Friday, 9am - 5:30pm, 37.5hrs a week.

    • Hybrid working (all staff currently work from home Monday & Friday, although they can come in those days, if they prefer not to home work)
    • Flexibility around requests for additional home-working time

    Perks / Our employee benefits include:

    • 25 days holiday per year, plus 1 additional birthday day
    • 30-days per year 'work from anywhere' allowance
    • Free car-parking, 2 minutes' walk from site
    • Two company social events per year (Summer and Christmas)

    Future prospects:

    • Once you have successfully completed the apprenticeship, depending on performance, a full time role may be available.

    Important information: Our apprenticeships are the perfect way to gain new skills, earn while you learn, and launch yourself into an exciting future. With over 30,000 successful apprenticeship graduates, we're a top 50 training provider, dedicated to helping you succeed.
