3GPP Standards Expert - Telecommunications / 3GPP SA2 / 3GPP CT1


  • Do you have a solid experience in telecommunications research, standardisation and/or development?
  • Experience in 3GPP SA2 or 3GPP CT1, and/or related working groups such as SA3, CT4?
  • Do you want to join a globally recognised mobile/tech development company?


We are seeking an3GPP Standards Expertwith experience in the 3GPP mobile telecommunications system, with expert knowledge of SA technologies in systems such as: 2G, 3G, 4G, 5G. join our client in the northwest Surrey/West London area on a permanent basis.


What we look for is:

  • A Bachelor’s degree (or higher) in Engineering, Computer Science, Electronics, Natural Science, and Mathematics, or any other related discipline.
  • Extensive experience in telecommunications research/standardisation/development, with considerable experience in the relevant working group (3GPP SA2 or 3GPP CT1, and/or related working groups e.g. SA3, CT4) and preferably with experience working as an active participant in standards, preferably as a delegate in SA2 or CT1 (or a related Working Group e.g. SA3, CT4).
  • An appreciation of the standardization processes is highly desirable (especially any experience with 3GPP, NGMN, GSMA). An understanding of the three-stage standardization method described in ITU T Recommendation I.130 would be an advantage.
  • A thorough understanding of the 3GPP mobile telecommunications system, with expert knowledge of SA technologies in systems such as: 2G, 3G, 4G, 5G.
  • A good understanding of relationship between standards and implementation, and of implementation methodologies.
  • Self motivation and ability to work as part of a team or alone, managing own work, ability to juggle multiple tasks, meet multiple – often tight – deadlines, and setting sensible priorities according to perceived requirements.
  • Willingness to travel frequently, often long-haul.


Any of the following would be considered a plus:

  • Knowledge of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML), or AI/ML, and its application to 3GPP technologies
  • Evidence of patent filing experience
  • Evidence of high-quality research publications.
  • Ability to write well-structured, accurate and complete technical documentation. Experience of contribution to 3GPP specs (e.g. through approved CRs/TPs) is highly desirable.

Machine Learning Jobs for Career Switchers in Their 30s, 40s & 50s (UK Reality Check)

Are you considering a career change into machine learning in your 30s, 40s or 50s? You’re not alone. In the UK, organisations across industries such as finance, healthcare, retail, government & technology are investing in machine learning to improve decisions, automate processes & unlock new insights. But with all the hype, it can be hard to tell which roles are real job opportunities and which are just buzzwords. This article gives you a practical, UK-focused reality check: which machine learning roles truly exist, what skills employers really hire for, how long retraining realistically takes, how to position your experience and whether age matters in your favour or not. Whether you come from analytics, engineering, operations, research, compliance or business strategy, there is a credible route into machine learning if you approach it strategically.

How to Write a Machine Learning Job Ad That Attracts the Right People

Machine learning now sits at the heart of many UK organisations, powering everything from recommendation engines and fraud detection to forecasting, automation and decision support. As adoption grows, so does demand for skilled machine learning professionals. Yet many employers struggle to attract the right candidates. Machine learning job adverts often generate high volumes of applications, but few applicants have the blend of modelling skill, engineering awareness and real-world experience the role actually requires. Meanwhile, strong machine learning engineers and scientists quietly avoid adverts that feel vague, inflated or confused. In most cases, the issue is not the talent market — it is the job advert itself. Machine learning professionals are analytical, technically rigorous and highly selective. A poorly written job ad signals unclear expectations and low ML maturity. A well-written one signals credibility, focus and a serious approach to applied machine learning. This guide explains how to write a machine learning job ad that attracts the right people, improves applicant quality and strengthens your employer brand.

Maths for Machine Learning Jobs: The Only Topics You Actually Need (& How to Learn Them)

Machine learning job adverts in the UK love vague phrases like “strong maths” or “solid fundamentals”. That can make the whole field feel gatekept especially if you are a career changer or a student who has not touched maths since A level. Here is the practical truth. For most roles on MachineLearningJobs.co.uk such as Machine Learning Engineer, Applied Scientist, Data Scientist, NLP Engineer, Computer Vision Engineer or MLOps Engineer with modelling responsibilities the maths you actually use is concentrated in four areas: Linear algebra essentials (vectors, matrices, projections, PCA intuition) Probability & statistics (uncertainty, metrics, sampling, base rates) Calculus essentials (derivatives, chain rule, gradients, backprop intuition) Basic optimisation (loss functions, gradient descent, regularisation, tuning) If you can do those four things well you can build models, debug training, evaluate properly, explain trade-offs & sound credible in interviews. This guide gives you a clear scope plus a six-week learning plan, portfolio projects & resources so you can learn with momentum rather than drowning in theory.
