Who We Are

We’re here to build a network the UK can count on – one that connects people, places and potential.  At VodafoneThree we’re not just expanding connectivity, we’re reimagining what a connected nation looks like. With £11bn invested in 5G and digital infrastructure, your work will directly power businesses, services and communities across the country.

We’re creating more than the UK’s best network. We’re helping close the digital divide, empower communities and drive meaningful progress – today.

What you’ll do

Data, insight and customers are at the heart of decision-making in Customer & Commercial Analytics. You’ll use analytics to solve real customer challenges, support sustainable growth and help shape the future customer experience at VodafoneThree.

As part of our Professional Pathway route, the two-year Customer & Commercial Analytics programme will give you the opportunity to use data and insight to help us make decisions, such as:

• How to maximise profit from our sales activity, balanced against risk  
• How we can support our vulnerable customers through the cost-of-living crisis
• How we ensure our customers can pay in a way that suits them  

This data enables us to take full accountability for optimal commercial performance, customer experience and risk management. Meanwhile, our Financial Crime & Assurance teams use best in class capability and decision making to ensure VodafoneThree and its customers are protected from harm. 

Working in this function, you’ll have a direct impact on the customer journey. You’ll use analytics and insights to help inform decisions that impact our customers, while maintaining a commercial mindset to drive growth for the organisation. You’ll also use critical thinking to solve problems and contribute to better customer experiences.

Throughout the programme, you’ll develop your stakeholder management skills and build a strong, diverse network across VodafoneThree. The breadth of experience and skills you’ll gain will lay the foundations for future success, opening up a career that could take you in several directions.

Alongside a structured development plan, you’ll have the support and opportunities to grow, build your skills and discover how far you can go at VodafoneThree. Through collaboration and inclusion, you’ll be inspired to challenge yourself, achieve more and keep learning throughout the programme.

Who you are 

• You don't just care about customers; you’re passionate about understanding their needs and creating better experiences.
• You build strong relationships and connect confidently with others.
• Change isn't a challenge; it's an opportunity. You thrive in dynamic environments and adapt as things evolve.
• You’re naturally analytical and curious, with a passion for turning data and insight into better decisions for our customers and the business.
• Your thinking is innovative and forward-looking. You bring fresh perspectives and look for better ways to do things.

Our Professional Pathway Programme is for graduates who are ready to turn their interests into expertise and build a career with VodafoneThree. If that’s you, we’d love to hear from you.
