Our client, a leading financial services corporation, is hiring a Data Architect to drive & design our client's data strategy as they move from on-prem to Azure cloud services. You will be part of a team designing and managing data systems primarily in Azure, ensuring alignment with business goals and requirements. To be successful, you must have strong expertise in Azure-based data solutions working within a regulated environment. Our client is paying a basic salary of £83,000 to £85,000 + Bonus + Pension + Hybrid Working + Private Healthcare to be based in Wolverhampton on a hybrid basis.

You will possess experience designing and implementing large-scale data warehousing/data modeling projects as our client rebuilds the IT ecosystem to ensure Data is at the heart of everything they do - a first in our clients history!

Core responsibilities:

Architect and design end-to-end data solutions on-premises and in Azure, ensuring alignment with business goals and requirements.
Provide data architecture support and guidance for new software / solutions
Create robust and scalable data models that meet business needs while following industry best practices.
Work with business analysts, data engineers, and other stakeholders to understand data requirements.
Integrate various data sources (on-premises, cloud-based, and third-party) into the Azure environment.
Utilise Azure services like Azure Data Lake, Azure SQL Database, Azure Synapse Analytics, and Azure Databricks for data storage, transformation, and analysis. 
Core skills and experience:

Previous experience acting as a Data Architect building major data changes within a regulated environment (ideally financial services) is a must-have
Specialist knowledge of SQL Server (2008 to 2019) is a must as our client’s transition to Azure.
Expert-level knowledge in MDM is essential
Strong capabilites in Data modeling are essential.
Experience in Data Cleansing and Data Masking on Azure Cloud is desirable.
Understanding TOGAF with a certification is nice to have

Rural-Remote Machine Learning Jobs: Finding Balance Beyond the Big Cities

Over the past decade, machine learning (ML) has transformed from a niche research domain into a pervasive technology underpinning everything from recommendation systems and voice assistants to financial forecasting and autonomous vehicles. Historically, the UK’s major tech hubs—particularly London—have been magnets for top ML talent and corporate headquarters. However, remote work has become mainstream, and many ML professionals are realising they can excel in their field while living far beyond the city limits. At MachineLearningJobs.co.uk, we’ve observed a growing interest in positions that allow for a rural lifestyle or a coastal environment, often reflected in search terms like “ML remote countryside” or “tech jobs by the sea.” This surge is no coincidence. Flexible work policies, better rural broadband, and the nature of machine learning tasks—much of which can be done through cloud platforms—are bringing new opportunities to those who wish to swap urban hustle for fresh air and scenic views. Whether you’re a data scientist, ML engineer, researcher, or product manager, a rural or seaside move could reinvigorate your work-life balance. In this article, we’ll unpack why rural-remote ML jobs are on the rise, how you can navigate the challenges of leaving the city, and what you need to do to thrive in a machine learning career beyond the M25. If you’ve dreamt of looking up from your laptop to rolling fields or ocean waves, keep reading—your rural ML role might be closer than you think.

Quantum-Enhanced Machine Learning—Propelling AI into the Next Frontier

Machine learning (ML) has revolutionised how we interpret data, build predictive models, and create intelligent applications. From recommendation engines and self-driving cars to advanced genomics and natural language processing, ML solutions are integral to nearly every corner of modern life. However, as data complexity and model size continue to skyrocket, the computational demands placed on ML systems grow in tandem—often pushing even high-performance classical computers to their limits. In recent years, quantum computing has emerged as a tantalising solution to these challenges. Unlike traditional digital systems, quantum computers exploit quantum mechanics—superposition and entanglement—to process information in ways that defy conventional logic. As these machines mature, they promise exponential speed-ups for certain tasks, potentially reshaping how we approach AI and data-intensive challenges. What does this mean for machine learning? Enter quantum-enhanced ML, a new frontier where quantum processors and classical ML frameworks unite to accelerate model training, tackle high-dimensional data, and solve complex optimisation tasks more efficiently. In this article, we will: Unpack the current state of machine learning, highlighting key bottlenecks. Provide a concise overview of quantum computing—why it’s radical and how it differs from classical technology. Examine potential breakthroughs in quantum-enhanced ML, including real-world use cases and technical approaches. Explore the roles and skill sets that will define this quantum-AI era, with guidance on how to prepare. Discuss the roadblocks (like hardware maturity and ethical concerns) and how they might be addressed in the years to come. If you’re a machine learning engineer, data scientist, or simply an AI enthusiast fascinated by the next wave of computational innovation, read on—quantum computing could become an integral part of your future toolkit, opening up job opportunities and reimagining what ML can achieve.
