Overview

Department: Artificial Intelligence & Data Science


Reports to: Lead AI Scientist


This organisation is at the forefront of AI-driven automation, building advanced solutions that transform how accountancy, finance, and professional services firms operate. The focus is on combining mathematical rigour with practical AI innovation to deliver technology that enables businesses to work smarter, faster, and with greater accuracy.


As an AI Graduate Scientist, you will design, develop, and deploy cutting-edge AI solutions that push the boundaries of automation and document intelligence. You’ll work closely with a multidisciplinary team of mathematicians, engineers, and domain experts, applying modern techniques in NLP, computer vision, and machine learning to solve complex, real-world problems.


This role is ideal for someone with a strong mathematical foundation, a passion for AI research, and a desire to see their work deliver real business impact.


Key Responsibilities

  • Research & Development: Investigate and implement advanced AI/ML algorithms, with a focus on document intelligence, information retrieval, and data automation.
  • Product Innovation: Contribute to the development of a document intelligence platform using NLP and computer vision to extract, classify, and structure data from complex, unstructured sources.
  • Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG): Design and implement intelligent retrieval systems, exploring approaches such as GraphRAG and Google ScaNN to improve contextual accuracy.
  • Full-Stack AI Deployment: Build, test, and deploy AI-powered bots and web applications on Microsoft Azure, ensuring scalability, security, and performance.
  • Enterprise AI Integration: Develop Model Context Protocol (MCP) systems to integrate AI models with enterprise data sources for domain-specific AI interactions.
  • Explainable AI: Research and apply model interpretability techniques to ensure AI systems are transparent, reliable, and business-ready.
  • Continuous Learning: Stay up to date with cutting-edge AI research and evaluate new methods for practical application.

Skills & Qualifications

  • First-class degree (or equivalent) in Mathematics, Computer Science, Artificial Intelligence, or a related discipline.
  • Strong mathematical grounding, particularly in algebra, number theory, and statistics.
  • Proficiency in Python and experience with major ML frameworks such as PyTorch or TensorFlow.
  • Solid understanding of NLP, computer vision, and information retrieval.
  • Ability to translate theoretical models into practical, deployable solutions.
  • Experience with cloud platforms, ideally Microsoft Azure.
  • Knowledge of vector search, RAG pipelines, and document chunking strategies.
  • Familiarity with advanced similarity search or vector quantisation techniques.
  • Experience deploying AI applications in enterprise environments.
  • Interest in explainable AI and model interpretability.

What’s on Offer

  • The opportunity to work on high-impact AI projects solving real business problems.
  • A collaborative, research-driven culture that values both innovation and rigour.
  • Exposure to cutting-edge AI tools, techniques, and research.
  • Competitive salary and benefits.
  • A clear career path into senior research or engineering roles.

How Many Machine Learning Tools Do You Need to Know to Get a Machine Learning Job?

Machine learning is one of the most exciting and rapidly growing areas of tech. But for job seekers it can also feel like a maze of tools, frameworks and platforms. One job advert wants TensorFlow and Keras. Another mentions PyTorch, scikit-learn and Spark. A third lists Mlflow, Docker, Kubernetes and more. With so many names out there, it’s easy to fall into the trap of thinking you must learn everything just to be competitive. Here’s the honest truth most machine learning hiring managers won’t say out loud: 👉 They don’t hire you because you know every tool. They hire you because you can solve real problems with the tools you know. Tools are important — no doubt — but context, judgement and outcomes matter far more. So how many machine learning tools do you actually need to know to get a job? For most job seekers, the real number is far smaller than you think — and more logically grouped. This guide breaks down exactly what employers expect, which tools are core, which are role-specific, and how to structure your learning for real career results.

What Hiring Managers Look for First in Machine Learning Job Applications (UK Guide)

Whether you’re applying for machine learning engineer, applied scientist, research scientist, ML Ops or data scientist roles, hiring managers scan applications quickly — often making decisions before they’ve read beyond the top third of your CV. In the competitive UK market, it’s not enough to list skills. You must send clear signals of relevance, delivery, impact, reasoning and readiness for production — and do it within the first few lines of your CV or portfolio. This guide walks you through exactly what hiring managers look for first in machine learning applications, how they evaluate CVs and portfolios, and what you can do to improve your chances of getting shortlisted at every stage — from your CV and LinkedIn profile to your cover letter and project portfolio.
