What You'll Be Doing:

Design and build robust, automated data pipelines using Azure Data Factory, Synapse, dbt, and Databricks.
Integrate data from enterprise systems (e.g. Dynamics, iTrent, Unit4) into a unified data platform.
Cleanse, transform, and model data to support BI tools (e.g., Power BI) and AI/ML use cases.
Implement data validation, lineage tracking, and metadata tagging for observability and trust.
Collaborate with stakeholders to standardise KPIs and support cross-functional reporting.
Ensure secure handling of sensitive data in line with GDPR and internal policies.What We're Looking For:

Solid experience in data engineering or backend data development.
Strong experience with Azure data services (e.g., Data Factory, Dake Lake, Synapse, Databricks) and tools like dbt.
Proficiency in SQL and Python, with a solid understanding of data modelling and transformation.
Experience integrating data from enterprise systems (CRM, ERP, HRIS).
Familiarity with DevOps practices (CI/CD, version control, monitoring) in a data context.What's On Offer:

A salary of up to £62,000 depending on experience
29 days annual leave plus bank holidays
A generous pension schemeThis is more than just a technical role-it's a chance to help shape the data future of a globally respected institution. If you're passionate about building high-quality data pipelines and enabling insight through clean, trusted data, we'd love to hear from you.

The Future of Machine Learning Jobs: Careers That Don’t Exist Yet

Machine learning (ML) has quickly become one of the most transformative forces in modern technology. What began as a subset of artificial intelligence—focused on algorithms that learn from data—has grown into a foundational capability across industries. From voice assistants and recommendation systems to fraud detection and predictive healthcare, machine learning underpins countless innovations shaping daily life. In the UK, demand for ML professionals has surged. Financial services, healthcare providers, retailers, and tech start-ups are investing heavily in ML talent. Roles like Machine Learning Engineer, Data Scientist, and AI Researcher are among the most sought-after and best-paid in the tech sector. Yet we are still only at the start. Advances in generative AI, quantum computing, edge intelligence, and ethical governance are reshaping the field. Many of the most critical machine learning jobs of the next 10–20 years don’t exist yet. This article explores why new careers will emerge, the kinds of roles likely to appear, how today’s jobs will evolve, why the UK is well positioned, and how professionals can prepare.

Seasonal Hiring Peaks for Machine Learning Jobs: The Best Months to Apply & Why

The UK's machine learning sector has evolved into one of Europe's most intellectually stimulating and financially rewarding technology markets, with roles spanning from junior ML engineers to principal machine learning scientists and heads of artificial intelligence research. With machine learning positions commanding salaries from £32,000 for graduate ML engineers to £160,000+ for senior principal scientists, understanding when organisations actively recruit can dramatically accelerate your career progression in this pioneering and rapidly evolving field. Unlike traditional software engineering roles, machine learning hiring follows distinct patterns influenced by AI research cycles, model development timelines, and algorithmic innovation schedules. The sector's unique combination of mathematical rigour, computational complexity, and real-world application requirements creates predictable hiring windows that strategic professionals can leverage to advance their careers in developing tomorrow's intelligent systems. This comprehensive guide explores the optimal timing for machine learning job applications in the UK, examining how enterprise AI strategies, academic research cycles, and deep learning initiatives influence recruitment patterns, and why strategic timing can determine whether you join a groundbreaking AI research team or miss the opportunity to develop the next generation of machine learning algorithms.

Pre-Employment Checks for Machine Learning Jobs: DBS, References & Right-to-Work and more Explained

Pre-employment screening in machine learning reflects the discipline's unique position at the intersection of artificial intelligence research, algorithmic decision-making, and transformative business automation. Machine learning professionals often have privileged access to proprietary datasets, cutting-edge algorithms, and strategic AI systems that form the foundation of organizational competitive advantage and automated decision-making capabilities. The machine learning industry operates within complex regulatory frameworks spanning AI governance directives, algorithmic accountability requirements, and emerging ML ethics regulations. Machine learning specialists must demonstrate not only technical competence in model development and deployment but also deep understanding of algorithmic fairness, AI safety principles, and the societal implications of automated decision-making at scale. Modern machine learning roles frequently involve developing systems that impact hiring decisions, financial services, healthcare diagnostics, and autonomous operations across multiple regulatory jurisdictions and ethical frameworks simultaneously. The combination of algorithmic influence, predictive capabilities, and automated decision-making authority makes thorough candidate verification essential for maintaining compliance, fairness, and public trust in AI-powered systems.
