Cape Town Tourism — South Africa's leading Destination Marketing and Management Organisation (DXO) — is looking for a curious and analytical Data & Research Graduate to join their Destination & Business Intelligence team in Cape Town, Western Cape.

Cape Town Tourism plays a central role in positioning Cape Town as a world-class global destination — driving visitor demand, supporting member businesses, and advocating for sustainable tourism that uplifts the city and its communities. Their Business Intelligence team is at the heart of this mission, using data, research, and digital tools to track tourism performance and guide strategic decisions.

As a Data & Research Graduate, you will support the team in analysing real tourism datasets, preparing research reports and stakeholder insights, maintaining performance dashboards, and helping manage a tourism intelligence website that shares industry data and reports with key stakeholders across the sector.

This is a rare opportunity for a quantitative graduate to build hands-on experience in data analytics, research, and digital intelligence inside a globally recognised tourism organisation — working on projects that directly shape how Cape Town attracts visitors and measures its impact.
