For your Data Science skills to grow exponentially. You'll no doubt be spinning a lot of plates, but you can expect to be working on a huge variety of technical projects, working in tandem with the wider AI team.

Desired background/ skillset:

You'll have a solid couple of years creating and delivering advanced analytical projects and advanced modelling techniques using Python & SQL. Bonus points for exposure to Databricks!
You'll likely be someone adept at spinning multiple plates at once and experienced in taking project briefs in some capacity.
A natural Data storyteller, someone who loves to use their technical toolkit to create compelling data driven stories.

This is one of the most varied and equally exciting Data Science roles we've worked in a while. If you feel this could be well suited, please apply with an up to date CV and we can take it from there

The Skills Gap in Machine Learning Jobs: What Universities Aren’t Teaching

Machine learning has moved from academic research into the core of modern business. From recommendation engines and fraud detection to medical imaging, autonomous systems and language models, machine learning now underpins many of the UK’s most critical technologies. Universities have responded quickly. Machine learning modules are now standard in computer science degrees, specialist MSc programmes have proliferated, and online courses promise to fast-track careers in the field. And yet, despite this growth in education, UK employers consistently report the same problem: Many candidates with machine learning qualifications are not job-ready. Roles remain open for months. Interview processes filter out large numbers of applicants. Graduates with strong theoretical knowledge struggle when faced with practical tasks. The issue is not intelligence or effort. It is a persistent skills gap between university-level machine learning education and real-world machine learning jobs. This article explores that gap in depth: what universities teach well, what they routinely miss, why the gap exists, what employers actually want, and how jobseekers can bridge the divide to build successful careers in machine learning.
