At NatWest, our purpose is everything. It’s embedded in everything we do, every customer relationship, every download of our app, every support call. And it’s driven by our ambition to be a relationship bank for a digital world.

Data & Analytics are the team that harness our customer data, in a safe and meaningful way to help make our customers’ lives easier.

We keep data at the heart of everything we do.

To make sure we are truly data driven, we’ll need to recruit world-class Data Science and Engineering talent.

Good data engineering helps us to get to grips with the data we have, and profile the key features that we can use to power our data science models. And in Data Science, we can apply statistics, computer science and problem-solving skills together with strong research methods to test, learn and optimise machine learning powered decisions.
