Expression of Interest - Skills Coach (Data)

Following the successful launch of Babington's Business Data Essentials programme, we are inviting expressions of interest from experienced data professionals who are passionate about developing others and supporting learners to build confidence and capability in data-driven roles. In today's fast-moving business environment, data is no longer the responsibility of analysts or senior leaders alone. It is a critical decision-making tool at every level of an organisation. From frontline employees to executive teams, the ability to interpret and apply data is now a defining factor in business success. As a market-leading apprenticeship provider with extensive expertise in leadership and management, Babington has seen first-hand how organisations thrive when decision-making is both informed and distributed. The next phase of this evolution is clear: empowering every role with the skills and confidence to use data effectively. Our Data at Every Desk approach is designed to build capable, confident teams who can make informed decisions as part of their everyday work. When data becomes embedded in daily thinking, it not only improves decisions but transforms organisations. Our Business Data Essentials pathway has been designed to deliver exactly this impact.
