Our approach to flexible working

Our flexible working practices, including our hybrid working model where you can split your working time between the office and your home, support our belief that this balance brings long-lasting benefits for our business as well as ensuring that our people can balance successful careers with their commitments and interests outside of work. So that you can love where you work, please discuss what works for you with your recruiter during the hiring process.

Job Description
Project Management is all about spinning plates, learning how to keep multiple things flowing, and knowing which tasks take priority and need attention first. As a Project Manager apprentice at Experian, you’ll work in one of our business areas, gain exposure to our exciting work and unlock career opportunities.
Initially you’ll join us in a project co-ordinator role, which will give you a fantastic insight and great grounding in the world of project management. You’ll be compiling reports, shadowing calls and attending weekly team meetings for example, to build your knowledge and understanding of our business. You’ll also work with a variety of teams to arrange meetings, schedule in customer delivery work, co-ordinate customer queries and organise sign-offs for key documentation such as customer satisfaction surveys for example, amongst a variety of other tasks. It’s a fast-paced role which requires adaptability!
The best part of it all? The support you get from Experian. We’ll help you develop your skills, provide training opportunities and enable you to gain insight into business by working on real life projects. Over time, you will build and develop the skills needed for a successful career in Project Management.
Alongside your role, you’ll study towards a BSc (Hons) Project Management degree with one of our partner training providers through distance learning. The duration of the course is 4 years and in addition to your salary, you’ll benefit from fully paid tuition fees, as well as our support every step of the way.
If you choose to join us, you’ll receive industry training, wide-reaching career opportunities and a wealth of support through our Early Careers Network, buddy, line manager & mentor scheme. You’ll also join onto Experian’s structured 2 year Early Careers Development programme, which is packed with workshops, short-courses & online material designed to help kick-start your career.
Our concept is simple. We believe in expanding horizons – it’s what makes Experian a global leader and a Top UK Tech Employer.
