  • Provision curated data sets to our data marketplace for use across the business
  • Ensure that your development on the platform meets our coding and development standards
  • Work as part of squad following the SCRUM methodology
  • Support the design of data engineering solutions to meet our data product and business requirements

  • Experience and expertise in using SQL and Python and are comfortable using them everyday
  • Experience in Azure technologies, particularly SQL DB, Azure Synapse, Data Factory, Azure Data Bricks and PowerBI
  • Experience in processing data from flat files, databases, APIs, data streams and using ETL/ELT development and building stored procedures.
  • A solid understanding of agile working practices and have some experience of working within the SCRUM agile methodology
  • An eagerness to have a real positive impact on the firm, products, clients and importantly your colleagues

You’ll be able to be yourself; we’ll recognise and value you for who you are and celebrate and reward your contributions to the business. We’re committed to agile working, and we offer every colleague the opportunity to work in ways that suit you, your teams, and the task at hand.

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.

Why Now Is the Perfect Time to Launch Your Career in Machine Learning: The UK's Intelligence Revolution

The United Kingdom stands at the epicentre of a machine learning revolution that's fundamentally transforming how we solve problems, deliver services, and unlock insights from data at unprecedented scale. From the AI-powered diagnostic systems revolutionising healthcare in Manchester to the algorithmic trading platforms driving London's financial markets, Britain's embrace of intelligent systems has created an extraordinary demand for skilled machine learning professionals that dramatically exceeds the current talent supply. If you've been seeking a career at the forefront of technological innovation or looking to position yourself in one of the most impactful sectors of the digital economy, machine learning represents an exceptional opportunity. The convergence of abundant data availability, computational power accessibility, advanced algorithmic development, and enterprise AI adoption has created perfect conditions for machine learning career success.
