This role offers a chance to build models, generate insights, and work directly with real-world product and customer data across multiple data types - text, images, and time-series (tabular) data.

The Role

You’ll join a small, collaborative data team in a Full-Stack Data Science role (ETL process through to building predictive models) working on live analytics, forecasting, and AI/ML projects.

Key responsibilities include:

  • Enriching and preparing datasets to uncover actionable insights

  • Building and evaluating time-series forecasts

  • Prototyping AI/ML models (NLP and computer vision exposure)

  • Translating findings into clear visual reports and concise business narratives

  • Contributing to simple, reliable data pipelines and automated quality checks

    About You

  • Minimum 1 year of commercial Data Science experience

  • Strong hands-on Python (pandas, NumPy, scikit-learn) and SQL

  • Sound understanding of statistics and forecasting

  • Confident communicator - able to explain technical work clearly to non-technical audiences

    Why Apply

  • Opportunity to build from scratch within a growing data function

  • Exposure to cutting-edge work in NLP, time-series analysis, and computer vision

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.

Machine Learning Recruitment Trends 2025 (UK): What Job Seekers Need To Know About Today’s Hiring Process

Summary: UK machine learning hiring has shifted from title‑led CV screens to capability‑driven assessments that emphasise shipped ML/LLM features, robust evaluation, observability, safety/governance, cost control and measurable business impact. This guide explains what’s changed, what to expect in interviews & how to prepare—especially for ML engineers, applied scientists, LLM application engineers, ML platform/MLOps engineers and AI product managers. Who this is for: ML engineers, applied ML/LLM engineers, LLM/retrieval engineers, ML platform/MLOps/SRE, data scientists transitioning to production ML, AI product managers & tech‑lead candidates targeting roles in the UK.

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.
