Junior Data Scientist – Master’s Graduate Role

Location: London (Hybrid)

Salary: £35,000 – £40,000 + Bonus + Benefits

Start Date: ASAP


About the Opportunity:

We are seeking an ambitious and intellectually curious Junior Data Scientist to join a fast-growing, forward-thinking team working at the forefront of data science, machine learning, and applied AI.


This is an excellent opportunity for a recent Master’s graduate eager to apply their academic expertise to solving real-world challenges—whether it’s predicting customer behaviour, optimising operations, or identifying patterns in complex datasets.


You’ll collaborate with experienced data scientists, machine learning engineers, and subject-matter experts to design, develop, and deploy models that deliver meaningful impact across a variety of industries.


What You’ll Be Doing:

  • Designing and building machine learning models to solve real-world problems
  • Carrying out full data science workflows: from data acquisition and cleaning to modelling, validation, and deployment
  • Applying statistical and AI techniques to generate actionable insights
  • Contributing to experimental research, model prototyping, and A/B testing
  • Presenting findings clearly to both technical and non-technical stakeholders
  • Collaborating across data science, engineering, and product teams to build scalable solutions
  • Staying current with advancements in machine learning and AI, and contributing new ideas to internal R&D discussions


What We’re Looking For:

  • A recently completed Master’s degree from a Russell Group university in Data Science, Computer Science, Mathematics, Physics, Engineering, or a related discipline
  • Strong programming skills in Python (e.g. NumPy, pandas, scikit-learn, matplotlib); R is also welcome
  • A solid understanding of core machine learning concepts, data wrangling, and model evaluation
  • Proficiency with SQL and experience handling large datasets
  • A passion for solving complex problems using data and a continuous learning mindset
  • Excellent communication and collaboration skills
  • Full right to work in the UK (we are unable to offer visa sponsorship for this role)


Desirable (Not Essential):

  • Familiarity with deep learning frameworks (e.g. TensorFlow, PyTorch)
  • Exposure to cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, or Azure)
  • Experience with experimental design, research methods, or academic publishing
  • Understanding of MLOps, version control (Git), or containerisation (e.g. Docker)


Benefits:

💰 Competitive Salary & Bonus: £35,000 – £45,000 plus bonus

🏡 Hybrid Working: A flexible mix of office and remote work

📈 Career Growth: Structured professional development, mentorship, and training opportunities

🛠 Modern Tech Stack: Work with the latest tools in data science, AI, and analytics

🤝 Collaborative Culture: Be part of a supportive and innovative team

Additional Perks: Pension scheme, private healthcare, and wellbeing initiatives
