Job Summary:

Job Requirements

Ready to make magic? We’re hiring for our 12-month undergraduate placement schemes.

We’re recruiting several Consumer Research & Data Insights Intern roles across the business. If you’re selected, you will be placed in one of Disney’s following business lines: Disney+, Media Networks (Kids, Factual, Entertainment and Sports TV channels), Ad Sales Insights, Product & Technology, Content Development & Licensing, Studios, Consumer Products or Parks & Resorts.

By collaborating with third-party agencies and internal teams, you will assist in gathering, checking and analysing data to deliver best-in-class insights that inform and support business strategies across the Europe, Middle East, and Africa (EMEA) region.

You will be integral in ensuring the quality and usability of data and insights, ultimately contributing to actionable, data-driven and visually engaging recommendations that influence business operations, across the Disney portfolio of brands (Disney, Pixar, Marvel, Lucasfilm, National Geographic, ESPN, Disney+ etc.). Some roles will influence marketing, some others will have an impact on content, some on social media, or brand, or commercial strategies – more details specific to your role will be shared during the recruitment process.

You’ll join a team grounded in our Disney values; acting with Integrity, welcoming everyone through Inclusion, embracing boundless Creativity, working together through Collaboration and caring deeply for our Community. These values shape how we work and how we support one another every day.

While all the roles we have on offer share much common ground, some lean a bit more into Consumer Research, some lean more into Data Analytics and Operations and some are a mix of both. If you have a preference, please note this in your cover letter.

This is an office-based internship. 4 days working in the Hammersmith, London office with 1 day working from home (Monday or Friday).
