Data Scientist
Cambridge (1x day PW)
Up to £55,000
Health/MedTech
 
I’m supporting a long standing client in Cambridge who have had some huge success recently and need to scale their Data Science function to keep up with demand.
 
This is very much your traditional statistics focused Data Science position. I’m looking to speak to people with around 2+ years of commercial Data Science experience, heavily focused on probability and statistics.
 
You’ll be joining a genuinely lovely and talented team. It’s an opportunity to use your skills to positively impact the lives of others. Health/MedTech experience would be a nice bonus, but certainly not essential.

Responsibilities:
 
As a key member of the data science team, you’ll provide statistical expertise for clinical research, designing and refining study protocols, analysis workflows, and data pipelines. You’ll help develop advanced methodologies and visualisation tools, collaborate with clinicians to enhance statistical processes, and partner with internal and external stakeholders to deliver data-driven solutions.
 
Essential experience:

Python.
Git for version control.
Classical statistics.
Hypothesis testing (parametric and non-parametric).
Survival analysis techniques (Cox regression, etc).
Linear or logistics regression models.
Exposure to small datasets, not just large (very important). 
Desirable experience:

Familiarity with pharma/health/medical datasets.
Mixed effects models – ability to use matching techniques to create synthetic arms in clinical trials.
BSc or MSc Mathematics (statistic focus).
The office is located just five minutes from Cambridge train station, and you’ll only need to be on-site once a week (more if you wish), so it’s suitable for people who live a commutable distance from Cambridge.
 
Finally, in a world of 4-6 stage interview processes, you’ll be pleased to hear this is just 3 stages consisting of a 30 min pre screening call, one hour technical and a final culture fit interview which is done in person.

Machine Learning Hiring Trends 2026: What to Watch Out For (For Job Seekers & Recruiters)

As we move into 2026, the machine learning jobs market in the UK is going through another big shift. Foundation models and generative AI are everywhere, companies are under pressure to show real ROI from AI, and cloud costs are being scrutinised like never before. Some organisations are slowing hiring or merging teams. Others are doubling down on machine learning, MLOps and AI platform engineering to stay competitive. The end result? Fewer fluffy “AI” roles, more focused machine learning roles with clear ownership and expectations. Whether you are a machine learning job seeker planning your next move, or a recruiter trying to build ML teams, understanding the key machine learning hiring trends for 2026 will help you stay ahead.

Why Machine Learning Careers in the UK Are Becoming More Multidisciplinary

Machine learning (ML) has moved from research labs into mainstream UK businesses. From healthcare diagnostics to fraud detection, autonomous vehicles to recommendation engines, ML underpins critical services and consumer experiences. But the skillset required of today’s machine learning professionals is no longer purely technical. Employers increasingly seek multidisciplinary expertise: not only coding, algorithms & statistics, but also knowledge of law, ethics, psychology, linguistics & design. This article explores why UK machine learning careers are becoming more multidisciplinary, how these fields intersect with ML roles, and what both job-seekers & employers need to understand to succeed in a rapidly changing landscape.
