At OMNIA® Training, we’ve brought together some of the UK’s most innovative defence training organisations under one powerful mission: to transform the British Army’s training system and create the best-trained Army in the world.

OMNIA are redefining the British Army’s collective training. To do that, we are looking for the best and brightest minds from across the UK. We are backed by British innovation and powered by world-class experts, like you. OMNIA is at the heart of the UK’s bold Land Industrial Strategy.

The role:
This is more than a job — it’s a mission. You will be part of a high-impact, collaborative environment, where we expect everyone to live the values and standards of the British Army. Every person in our team plays a critical role in delivering OMNIA’s vision; designing, delivering, and transforming collective training so the British Army is ready to fight and win.

You’ll work in a matrix organisation and report operationally through OMNIA Training and functionally through the OMNIA Enterprise Architect. Ultimately, you’ll work for the British Army, championing innovation, and helping shape the future of military collective training.

Key Responsibilities:

Analyse complex datasets and translate findings into actionable insights aligned with Army training objectives.
Design and deliver clear, meaningful visualisations and reports that support operational decision-making.
Explore and analyse through use of statistical tools and techniques data to identify patterns, relationships and trends to inform further development.
Collaborate with data architects and engineers to ensure analytical outputs align with enterprise architecture and platform standards.
Support the evolution of data architectures by contributing analytical requirements and feedback.
Communicate analytical findings clearly to non-technical stakeholders to inform strategy and operational improvements.
Conduct exploratory analysis and limited prototyping to evaluate emerging data techniques relevant to training analytics.
Ensure analytics processes comply with security, governance, and regulatory requirements.

Any other duties required to meet the needs of the programme.

Who we are looking for:

You’ll have a mission focus, and the enthusiasm and drive to ‘get things done’.  You’ll want to work in collaboration with other defence training organisations, and the British Army. You won’t let bureaucracy get in the way of what needs to be done, you’ll learn lessons and share these lessons across the team. You’ll understand what it means to put the mission first.

We’re looking for a curious, detail-oriented Data Analyst who thrives in a fast-paced, mission-driven environment. The ideal candidate will be passionate about unlocking the value of data to improve Army training outcomes, with a strong ability to interpret complex datasets and communicate insights clearly to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
