Senior Data Engineer – Permanent Role – £100,000 – £110,000 + Excellent Bonus & Benefits


A prestigious mid-sized Investment Management firm, specialising in ETFs, is seeking a Senior Data Engineer to join their dynamic team in London. This hybrid role offers a blend of remote working and office presence, providing flexibility and a balanced work environment.


Why This Role Stands Out


As a Senior Data Engineer, you will have the chance to shape the future of investment strategies with cutting-edge data solutions. This role not only offers a competitive salary and excellent bonus but also provides an environment where innovation and professional growth are highly valued. You will have the opportunity to mentor junior engineers, making a significant impact on their careers while advancing your own.


Your Role


In this pivotal position, you will support the Data Engineering Lead in constructing robust, scalable, and secure data systems. You will take ownership of critical projects, ensuring seamless data flow and alignment with business goals. Collaboration across various teams will be key to your success, as will your ability to translate technical challenges into business solutions.


Key Responsibilities


- Develop a modern, scalable data architecture using tools like Snowflake, Databricks, and Spark.

- Drive innovation and improve scalability by integrating cutting-edge technologies into the data infrastructure.

- Mentor junior engineers, guiding them to master the modern data stack and uphold best practices.

- Collaborate with product, operations, and business strategy teams to streamline data delivery.

- Ensure data privacy, security, and compliance with regulatory standards.


What We’re Looking For


- Strong understanding of data architecture, ETL/ELT processes, and data warehousing technologies (e.g., SQL Server, Snowflake, Databricks).

- Experience with cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, or Google Cloud) and big data technologies (Spark, Hadoop, Kafka).


Technical Skills


- Expertise in SQL, Python (Pandas, NumPy), and data modelling.

- Experience with data pipeline orchestration tools (e.g., Airflow, DBT).

- Proficiency in version control using git and CI/CD pipelines.

- Ability to pick up SSIS, SSRS, and SSAS technologies for legacy tech migration.

- Familiarity with data governance and data catalogue tools (e.g., Secoda, Alation) is desirable.


If you are ready to take the next step in your career as a Data Engineer and find this role compelling, please apply to this vacancy. Abigail Fernandes will reach out to discuss further.

Contract vs Permanent Machine Learning Jobs: Which Pays Better in 2025?

Machine learning (ML) has swiftly become one of the most transformative forces in the UK technology landscape. From conversational AI and autonomous vehicles to fraud detection and personalised recommendations, ML algorithms are reshaping how organisations operate and how consumers experience products and services. In response, job opportunities in machine learning—including roles in data science, MLOps, natural language processing (NLP), computer vision, and more—have risen dramatically. Yet, as the demand for ML expertise booms, professionals face a pivotal choice about how they want to work. Some choose day‑rate contracting, leveraging short-term projects for potentially higher immediate pay. Others embrace fixed-term contract (FTC) roles for mid-range stability, or permanent positions for comprehensive benefits and a well-defined career path. In this article, we will explore these different employment models, highlighting the pros and cons of each, offering sample take‑home pay scenarios, and providing insights into which path might pay better in 2025. Whether you’re a new graduate with a machine learning degree or an experienced practitioner pivoting into an ML-heavy role, understanding these options is key to making informed career decisions.

Machine‑Learning Jobs for Non‑Technical Professionals: Where Do You Fit In?

The Model Needs More Than Math When ChatGPT went viral and London start‑ups raised seed rounds around “foundation models,” many professionals asked, “Do I need to learn PyTorch to work in machine learning?” The answer is no. According to the Turing Institute’s UK ML Industry Survey 2024, 39 % of advertised ML roles focus on strategy, compliance, product or operations rather than writing code. As models move from proof‑of‑concept to production, demand surges for specialists who translate algorithms into business value, manage risk and drive adoption. This guide reveals the fastest‑growing non‑coding ML roles, the transferable skills you may already have, real transition stories and a 90‑day action plan—no gradient descent necessary.

Quantexa Machine‑Learning Jobs in 2025: Your Complete UK Guide to Joining the Decision‑Intelligence Revolution
