Be part of building Scotland's future:

What will you be doing this summer? How about getting paid to work on real projects on a scale you never thought possible before graduation? Join our Undergraduate Summer Placement Scheme and expect interesting, vital and hands-on work with experienced people you can learn from.

You could be meeting with our clients - the companies innovating and scaling to improve Scotland economically. You'll work with colleagues from across our extensive network. Crucially, you'll get world experience to complement your studies.

By the time you go back to uni, you'll have played an important role in helping us secure a prosperous future for Scotland.

We're Scottish Enterprise - Scotland's national and international economic development agency. We work to transform the Scottish economy.

What we do really matters:
from helping to create high-value jobs and boosting productivity to growing Scotland's wealth. It's success you could soon be part of.

The opportunity:

An increasingly important part of shaping how we deliver economic development support is by learning from our performance data.

So, to extend and deepen our work as a data-driven organisation, we now need an enthusiastic economist or data analyst to help us explore what our data tells us about the support we give.


Join our Economists and Performance Analysts, and you'll help us ensure we have the insights we need to achieve maximise economic impact and value for money.


The role:

This new role will see you analysing three years' data, drawn from 1500 to 2000 businesses a year.

What you'll be looking to understand is the relationship between Scottish Enterprise's support and the impact it has had - for example, in terms of employment growth.


In addition, you'll help us:

  • Build a robust database by checking external databases and online company research, and by having conversations with staff
  • Explore individual and groups of data series such as tabulating, graphing, summarising and crosscorrelation and report on your findings
  • Identify data insights that tell the stories of our support, the outcomes and the potential impact
  • Report on and share these stories with internal audiences through presentations, webinars and videos
  • Draw conclusions based on data insights and recommend courses of action

Who we're looking for:


As someone who's curious about business and economic data, you'll have an interest in finding insights through exploration and analysis as part of a team.

Presenting your findings in ways non-specialists can grasp will take a curious and creative mind. You'll also join us ideally with some experience or understanding of packages such as Venngage, Canva and PowerBI.

Life at Scottish Enterprise:


As one of Scotland's Top 10 Flexible Employers, we pride ourselves on empowering our colleagues to work when and where they prefer so that they deliver as best they can, in support of our corporate plan.

How to apply:

We celebrate shared success and learn together when things don't go so well. And we always treat each other fairly, with respect and understanding. Together, we are the difference.
