2 Senior Lecturer / Lecturer (Asst Prof) and other positions in Machine Learning in Manchester, UK

Apr 25, 2022

Manchester Centre for AI Fundamentals has positions open at all levels: Senior Lecturer, Lecturer, Research Fellow, Postdoc, and PhD (funded).

Now is the time to join the University of Manchester as it significantly boosts its activities in Machine Learning.

The University of Manchester is making a strategic investment in the fundamentals of AI, complementing its existing strengths in AI applications across several prominent research fields. This provides high-profile opportunities for collaboration and application of fundamental AI research. The university is a key partner of the national Alan Turing Institute, hosting 33 Turing Fellows and Fellows of the European Laboratory of Learning and Intelligent Systems (ELLIS), in the new ELLIS Unit Manchester. The ambition is to establish a leading AI centre at the intersection of these opportunities. Recently, the university launched a Centre for AI Fundamentals and has recruited four new academics to it. These positions are part of the ongoing effort to establish this new Centre.

Applications are welcome in any area of the fundamentals of machine learning, including probabilistic modelling, deep learning, reinforcement learning, causal modelling, human-in-the-loop ML, explainable AI, ethics, privacy, and security. These roles focus on advancing machine learning methodologies, though applications of ML are highly valued. Candidates are expected to contribute to the new centre, explore collaboration opportunities within the university, and build international networks.

You will be based in the Department of Computer Science and will be part of a vibrant community of machine learning, data science, and AI researchers. The university promotes seamless collaboration across departments, schools, and faculties. Notable links include the Alan Turing Institute, ELLIS, the Institute for Data Science and Artificial Intelligence, and the Christabel Pankhurst Institute for Health Technology.

Where to Advertise Machine Learning Jobs in the UK (2026 Guide)

Advertising machine learning jobs in the UK requires a different approach to most technical hiring. The candidate pool is small, highly specialised and in demand across AI labs, financial services, healthcare, autonomous systems and consumer technology simultaneously. Machine learning engineers and researchers move between roles through professional networks, conference communities and specialist platforms — not general job boards where ML roles compete with unrelated software engineering positions for the same audience. This guide, published by MachineLearningJobs.co.uk, covers where to advertise machine learning roles in the UK in 2026, how the main platforms compare, what employers should expect to pay, and what the data says about hiring across different role types.

New Machine Learning Employers to Watch in 2026: UK and Global Companies Driving ML Innovation

Machine learning (ML) has transitioned from a specialised field into a core business capability. In 2026, organisations across healthcare, finance, robotics, autonomous systems, natural language processing, and analytics are expanding their machine learning teams to build scalable intelligent products and services. For professionals exploring opportunities on www.MachineLearningJobs.co.uk , understanding the companies that are scaling, winning investment, or securing high‑impact contracts is crucial. This article highlights the new and high‑growth machine learning employers to watch in 2026, focusing on UK innovators, international firms with significant UK presence, and global platforms investing in machine learning talent locally.

How Many Machine Learning Tools Do You Need to Know to Get a Machine Learning Job?

Machine learning is one of the most exciting and rapidly growing areas of tech. But for job seekers it can also feel like a maze of tools, frameworks and platforms. One job advert wants TensorFlow and Keras. Another mentions PyTorch, scikit-learn and Spark. A third lists Mlflow, Docker, Kubernetes and more. With so many names out there, it’s easy to fall into the trap of thinking you must learn everything just to be competitive. Here’s the honest truth most machine learning hiring managers won’t say out loud: 👉 They don’t hire you because you know every tool. They hire you because you can solve real problems with the tools you know. Tools are important — no doubt — but context, judgement and outcomes matter far more. So how many machine learning tools do you actually need to know to get a job? For most job seekers, the real number is far smaller than you think — and more logically grouped. This guide breaks down exactly what employers expect, which tools are core, which are role-specific, and how to structure your learning for real career results.
