At Virgin Atlantic Airways, we believe that everyone can take on the world, and it is our vision to become the most loved travel company. As we embark on the next exciting stage of our journey, we are harnessing our spirit of entrepreneurship and innovation to challenge the status quo.
In a nutshell
Every decision about where Virgin Atlantic flies, how our routes perform and how we work with airline partners depends on clear, accurate and accessible insight.
As an Analyst in Network & Alliances Development, you will help turn complex commercial and network data into the tools, reporting and analysis that support decisions across our route network, partnerships and future growth. Your work will help colleagues understand network revenue, route profitability, connectivity, competitor performance and the performance of our airline partnerships.
You will work with a wide range of teams, including Data & AI, Revenue Management, Sales, Virgin Atlantic Holidays, Cargo and external insight, process and data vendors. You will turn complex datasets into clear analysis, improve existing reporting and look for smarter ways to automate and simplify how we work.
This is a role for someone who wants to go beyond reporting. You will help improve how the team uses data, build better tools, automate manual processes and turn analysis into clear commercial stories that colleagues can act on.
It is a great opportunity for someone who is curious, technically capable and excited by the prospect of using data to influence real commercial decisions in a dynamic aviation environment.
