The role
Luton | Full-time | Hybrid
You see beyond the headline numbers, finding the operational story that helps people act.
If you enjoy testing hypotheses, getting to the root of performance challenges and turning complex analysis into clear recommendations, this is an opportunity to influence how a major airline improves reliability for its customers.
What you'll do
You'll join our Operations Insight & Improvement team, using data to understand what drives operational performance across the network and where focused action can make the biggest difference.
Reporting to the Senior Improvements Manager, you'll own and enhance diagnostic tools, model trends and identify root causes affecting on-time performance and flying completion. Your insight will help shape practical improvement plans and support better operational decisions.
"This role is for someone who is curious enough to keep asking why, technically strong enough to find the answer and clear enough to turn it into a story people can act on. Your insight will help us focus improvement where it matters most for our operation and our customers."
Senior Improvement Manager
You'll identify and extract the right information, then build and enhance operational health models that explain the drivers behind key measures, including on-time performance and completion rate.
You'll review trends, model projections and test hypotheses to uncover emerging challenges, root causes and practical ways to reduce disruption.
You'll provide timely insight to senior operational stakeholders through regular reporting and focused diagnostic deep-dives, using clear visualisation and storytelling to turn analysis into action.
You'll develop dashboards that create a consistent view of strategic and tactical performance, while recommending tools, capabilities and good practice that strengthen analytics across Operations.
How you'll work
We support hybrid working, and you'll spend 60% of your time each month in the office.
What we're looking for
You'll have experience in data and analytics, with a strong track record of turning complex data into clear, actionable insights that identify improvement opportunities, support decision-making and drive better business performance.
