Insurance Pricing, Data Science and Advanced Analytics Recruitment Specialist Perm | Contract I Insurtech I General Insurance I Broking I Lloyds…

£65,000 + bonus + benefits | 2 days/week Manchester (moving to 3 days soon)


If you’re a pricing data scientist who wants to lean harder into ML (or you’re an ML engineer who enjoys commercial, real-world modelling), this is one of those roles where Python is central to everything.


You’ll join a high-performing ML team (4 ML engineers today) with genuine buy-in from the wider business and a strong pipeline of interesting work. The team is growing, and so is the opportunity to step up.


What you’ll be doing

  • Building and improving pricing models using Python
  • Working on GLMs and GBMs (this is not an LLM/neural-network role)
  • Translating model outputs into decisions that move the needle commercially
  • Collaborating closely with ML engineers, pricing, and stakeholders across the business
  • Helping shape how the team scales as hiring continues

Why this role stands out

  • Python-first environment with meaningful engineering/ML focus
  • Huge internal support for ML and analytics
  • A team that’s already established, but still early enough for you to have real influence
  • Clear career progression as the function expands over the next 12–24+ months

What they’re looking for

  • Strong Python and experience delivering models into production or production-like settings
  • Background in pricing analytics / data science / ML engineering
  • Comfortable with GLMs/GBMs and rigorous modelling practices
  • A career-focused person who wants to grow with a scaling team

📍 Location: Manchester (Hybrid — 2 days/week in office, moving to 3 days/week soon)


💷 Package: up to £65,000 base + bonus + benefits

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.
