Our digital future

Stay ahead of an ever-changing world

At R2 Data Labs, we're building highly collaborative, expert data analytics teams across the globe. As a member of those teams you'll transform not only our business but the world we live in.

The work you will do draws on our nearly three decades of experience in Big Data, our partnerships with sector leaders such as Microsoft and Tata Consultancy Services, and your own creative vision.

As the pace of technological advancement continues to quicken, unleashing the true potential of data becomes ever more important. You'll be in a position to influence the changing world like never before.

With us, you'll be working on some of the largest and most complex data sets available: we're producing terabytes of data from our engines alone.

Finding ways to combine operational knowledge and expertise with this data to create actionable insights is how you'll be able to influence the way the world operates, from helping flights arrive on time, every time, to ensuring constant power supplies in the world's remotest places.

Business units

As part of a highly focused team working with the latest Big Data and IoT tools and technologies, you'll play a crucial role in advancing our successes across diverse business sectors.

You'll be drawing on the data heritage of our company that stretches back almost 30 years, and an engineering prowess that has been at the forefront of countless sectors for over 100 years. Your own vision for the future will help influence the bigger picture; you'll also need to be agile enough in your approach to find solutions to problems as and when they arise.

Whether that means optimising the capabilities of some of the world's busiest airlines or ensuring that the vital systems provide power so that hospitals remain online: your work at R2 Data Labs will have a real, tangible impact.

Civil Aerospace

Play a crucial role in optimising operational costs for our airline and business aviation customers.

How do you pinpoint the root causes of a problem across an entire fleet? Could you identify the pattern to do this within millions of data points?

By aggregating and analysing a wider spectrum of operational data than ever before, you’ll help to drive the next generation of innovations and improve operational performance.

We’ll be looking to you to help maximise availability and utilisation of mission-critical equipment.

Power Systems

Power the equipment that powers the world.

How do you increase the capabilities of the world’s largest haul truck? How do you ensure a hospital can function 24/7 where reliable vital systems are hard to come by? How do you safely extend a Nuclear plant’s lifetime for long-term success?

Can you play a role in helping our customers ensure the future of global power?

Our roles

Using data and the latest technologies to make a real difference

At R2 Data Labs, you'll work with some of the biggest names and institutions in the world so your work will have a truly global impact.

That could mean streamlining our customers’ processes to impact their profits or improving a power station’s effect on the environment. We trust you to not only work on immediate problems but to always be on the front foot, driving meaningful change and solving the challenges of tomorrow.

A rich history that shapes an exciting future

Rolls-Royce has been at the forefront of innovation and excellence for over 100 years - you'll build on the principles that made us great in the past and will make us extraordinary in the future.

You'll be empowered to do that through access to the latest cutting edge technology and tools, giving you everything you need to make a difference. It's why we partner with the likes of Microsoft and Tata Consultancy Services on boundary-pushing collaborations.

Global ambitions that match your personal ones

Your personal journey never gets lost in the bigger picture: we know how important it is to keep moving forwards together.

We’ll do everything we can to empower you to bring ideas to life and reach your goals. As a unique individual in a close-knit team, you’ll have the support you need to try new things as well as the space to forge your own path.

You won’t just be a small cog in a big machine - far from it. We know the value of enabling everyone in our teams to make a real impact and you’ll have the opportunities to do just that.

Rewards and benefits

Reward isn't just about pay - it’s everything you get for working here, whether that be your bonus; pension; shares; other company benefits; or feeling valued and appreciated for the work you do. We offer a total reward package that gives you the opportunity to share in our success and choose the benefits that fit your lifestyle.

We recognise that everyone is different, so we provide core benefits as well as a range of voluntary options, enabling you to make savings through salary sacrifice schemes or shopping and services discounts. These include initiatives such as the Cycle to Work Scheme; an Employee Car Leasing Scheme, special offers and discounts on an extensive range of products and services, including groceries, clothing, technology, travel, and much more.

In the UK we run SharePurchase and ShareSave plans that enable you to buy Rolls-Royce shares in a tax-efficient way and enjoy the benefits of increases in our share price.

Your individual package will depend on your role, location and grade.

Our global locations

R2 Data Labs operations exist around the globe: small highly-focused teams that are able to tap into local knowledge and global expertise alike.

Our data analytics teams are based predominantly (though not exclusively) in the following locations: the UK, Germany, Norway, Singapore, India, and the US. Mixing remote and on-site working, you'll need to be comfortable with a flexible approach to working and thrive on teamwork.
