About the team

The Faculty Frontier TM product is our ambitious vision to create the first enterprise-grade platform that unifies decision intelligence with AI Agents to optimise real-world outcomes of critical processes across large-scale organisations. You will work on highly complex and consequential problems across the real economy, with particular focus on healthcare and life sciences.

About the role

This is a hybrid role combining hands-on executive support with product team coordination.

Working directly with our CTO, VP Commercial and other key members of the product leadership team, you will amplify the productivity of our leaders with a full range of administrative responsibilities - expertly managing diary, travel, expenses and logistics.

  • Managing complex diaries and high-stakes meetings for the CTO and VP Commercial, proactively resolving scheduling conflicts, communicating with external stakeholders and managing global travel logistics.

  • Reviewing and managing executive inboxes to prioritise critical communications and reduce cognitive load for leadership.

  • Supporting the execution of high-priority strategic projects and initiatives as a core member of the Product Operations team.

  • Coordinatinginternal collaboration and operating rhythms across the product team, managing meetings across our org structure, preparing materials, ensuring actions are tracked and followed up.

  • Drafting and circulating internal communications to keep the product team informed, sharing updates, announcements and key conclusions from leadership.

  • Executing operational processes, including budget approvals, expense tracking, and software licensing, to ensure seamless team performance.

  • Building collaborative relationships across the organisation and with external partners to unblock challenges and accelerate progress.

  • Organising team events and offsites, taking full ownership of logistics from venue sourcing to contract negotiation.

Who we're looking for:

  • You have a proven track record of managing competing demands with exceptional organisation, instinctively knowing how to prioritise in an ambitious, fast-moving environment.

  • You demonstrate impeccable discretion and judgment, handling sensitive information regarding leadership decisions and budgets with maturity and integrity.

  • You are a proactive problem-solver who seeks out ways to improve processes, flagging issues early and always arriving with potential solutions.

  • You possess strong communication skills, with the ability to adapt your tone and style to influence stakeholders at all levels of seniority.

  • You bring a high level of technical literacy and a curious mindset, comfortable navigating productivity tools and picking up new systems quickly.

  • You exhibit rigorous attention to detail and scientific rigor in your work, ensuring trackers, records, and slide decks are accurate and professional.

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.
