People Insight Analyst

This job is with Virgin Media O2, an inclusive employer and a member of myGwork – the largest global platform for the LGBTQ+ business community. This is a pivotal role within our People Data and Analytics team, focused on turning complex people data into clear, actionable insight that shapes decision making across Virgin Media O2. As a People Insight Analyst, you'll sit at the heart of how we use data to understand, support and improve the employee experience, helping leaders make confident, evidence based decisions across the business.

You'll combine strong analytical expertise with a genuine curiosity about people, using insight to influence outcomes across the full employee lifecycle. In this role, you'll design and deliver high quality self service BI products, lead hypothesis driven analysis, and partner closely with HR and senior stakeholders as a trusted advisor. You'll work with both curated and newly sourced datasets, ensuring insight is robust, well governed and meaningful. By blending technical capability with deep HR and business understanding, you'll move beyond reporting metrics to tell compelling stories that drive action and support our wider People strategy.

At Virgin Media O2, we connect people to the moments that matter most. Virgin Media leads the UK for broadband reliability, speed and overall performance, while O2 keeps people connected on the move with award-winning coverage. We're also proud to be named one of the Financial Times Top 500 Best Employers for 2026, based on one of the UK's largest employee satisfaction surveys. Join us and you'll be part of a team that stays curious, positive and focused on making life easier for our customers and each other. We're investing in the future of connectivity, from expanding next-generation 5G to exploring satellite-supported solutions that help reach rural communities and hard-to-connect places. You'll work with people who back good ideas and give you plenty of room to grow. So if you're looking for a place where you can feel supported, trusted and genuinely valued, you'll feel right at home here.

We're a flexible-first organisation, because we know people do their best work when they have choice and clarity. To support meaningful collaboration, we ask everyone to spend at least eight days a month connecting with each other in person. That doesn't just mean time in the office - it could be team meetings, offsites, volunteering days, cross-functional projects, or away days. What matters is making those moments count - so when we come together, it benefits everyone.

We believe a better tomorrow starts with the choices we make today. That means moving the dial on diversity, building equity into everything we do and putting inclusion at the heart of our business. Virgin Media O2 is an equal opportunities employer and we work hard to remove bias and barriers. We want every person who joins us - and everyone thinking about joining us - to feel seen, heard and supported. When you work with us, you'll have access to our award-winning employee network groups. These communities bring people together, champion allyship and create uplifting spaces where you can learn, share and feel part of something bigger. They play a big role in helping people feel connected from day one.

Next steps

If this feels like a place where you can belong, we'd love to see what you can do. Once you apply, the next steps might include a call with a recruiter, a video interview, an interview with the hiring manager and a task or assessment.

We review applications and interview throughout the advert window, so it's worth applying sooner rather than later.
