This is a perfect role for someone who can engage confidently with stakeholders, work both independently and within a small team on defined analytical problems, can clearly communicate insights, and is comfortable contributing to production-ready data science solutions.

Role Responsibilities:

· Develop, test, and maintain data science solutions using Python

· Perform exploratory data analysis (EDA) to identify trends, patterns, and opportunities

· Apply statistical and machine learning techniques to address business questions

· Use segmentation and clustering techniques where appropriate to support insight generation

· Interpret model results and communicate insights clearly to technical and non-technical audiences

· Support model validation, documentation, and ongoing monitoring

· Contribute to continuous improvement of data science standards, tools, and ways of working

Requirements:

· 3 plus years in industry as a data scientist

· Strong Python proficiency, including:

· Solid understanding of statistics and machine learning fundamentals

· Experience working with structured data and SQL

· Ability to communicate analytical findings clearly and confidently

· Experience supporting machine learning models in production environments

What We Offer

· Collaborative, people-first culture

· Hybrid working arrangements (requirement to travel to the office 2 days per month)

· 25 days holiday + bank holidays

· Yearly bonus scheme

· Contributory Pension scheme

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

Where to advertise machine learning jobs UK in 2026: the specialist boards and communities that reach ML, MLOps and deep learning engineering talent. 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.
