Employer description:
Tracsis plc offers technologies to manage, monitor, and optimize resources in the railway and wider transport industry. The company is headquartered in Leeds, UK, and listed on the London Stock Exchange.

Overview:
You will have the opportunity to gain valuable skills and experience as you complete a Data Analyst - Level 4 Apprenticeship.

In terms of data presentation, the candidate will be asked to produce a new striking way of presenting data for a specific project within the apprenticeship, with support of a technical specialist.

Salary: £19,000 per annum.

Duties:
Reporting:

• A successful candidate for this role will need to manage internal working relationships within the Tracsis Rail Consultancy & the wider Transport Consultancy team.
• A successful candidate for this role will also need to manage a number of external relationships, this being the apprenticeship provider & at times Tracsis clients, for example Network Rail.

This will comes in two forms, one is through the management of data, setting up systems which manage certain data sets correctly.
The other is through the presentation of data in a visual way for our clients.

Within the apprenticeship, the candidate will get hands on experience in both of these areas. In terms of data management, the candidate will be likely be given a series of unmanaged data sets, so the candidate can create an organic process for managing that data.
