We have a fantastic opportunity to join Tesco Technology's Finance Data & AI team who are responsible for building the data foundation that powers financial decision‑making across Tesco. We are transforming how finance accesses, trusts and uses data by developing a modern finance data platform that delivers trusted data at pace and enables analytics and AI. We partner with engineering teams to integrate data from finance systems, ensure quality and governance, and make data discoverable and accessible to finance colleagues, analytics products and AI‑driven capabilities across the business.
Joining us means playing a part in defining; building and launching an ambitious roadmap of digital products that could affect the lives of millions of people over the years to come. If that sounds exciting then we'd love to hear from you!
