Why this job matters

Be part of the data transformation that will redefine BT Business for years to come

If you’re driven by the thrill of building something that truly matters, this is your moment. BT Business is embarking on a bold, long‑term commitment to elevate data to the strategic asset it deserves to be — not as a side project, not as a “nice to have,” but as a core pillar of how we operate, innovate, and serve millions of customers.

For the first time, the organisation is fully aligned behind a genuine data‑first vision. You’ll join a team at the very beginning of this journey, shaping the foundations, architecture, and culture that will underpin BT Business for the future. This is greenfield work with real backing, real ambition, and the opportunity to leave a legacy that lasts.

If you want to influence how a major UK business uses data at scale — and build something that endures long after the project is complete — you’ll feel right at home here
