Job Description

ASOS Supply Chain has set up a centralised data science team to provide value across all facets of Supply Chain such as improving the success mix around last‑mile customer journey, driving accuracy in warehousing, optimising inbound routing and consolidating our returns operations. You will be responsible for identifying and demonstrating the strategic business value of process intelligence by using data analytics and situational anecdotes, holding teams to account and removing bias from decision‑making.


You will be part of a team that provides value; responsible for analysing large data sets, creating models, identifying themes and collating the data into Value Insight Packages (VIPs) that, subsequently, drive mean‑shift improvements and/or remove variation from our processes.

  • Improve data quality and governance standards as executed by Data Owners & Stewards within the domain; help identify data quality gaps and support their resolution, creating trusted data sets and eradicating anything that might undermine trust.

  • Using ASOS data and external experience, model relationships of different factors to support business requirements.
  • Develop compelling VIPs by quantifying potential measurable outcomes, efficiency gains and potential cost savings.
  • Collaborate with wider Supply Chain & interrelated teams, technical consultants, and senior management to present VIPs and manage expectations, gaining adoption. Work with Supply Chain teams to ensure successful implementation and ongoing value extraction from VIPs through ASOS frameworks, ensuring that change happens.
  • Empower others in the process intelligence journey, taking sponsorship, leading training & providing demos to stakeholders.

That’s why our approach to working together includes spending at least 3 days a week in the office. It’s a rhythm that speeds up decision‑making, helps ASOSers learn from each other more quickly, and builds the kind of culture where people can grow, create and succeed.

Neurodiversity in Machine Learning Careers: Turning Different Thinking into a Superpower

Machine learning is about more than just models & metrics. It’s about spotting patterns others miss, asking better questions, challenging assumptions & building systems that work reliably in the real world. That makes it a natural home for many neurodivergent people. If you live with ADHD, autism or dyslexia, you may have been told your brain is “too distracted”, “too literal” or “too disorganised” for a technical career. In reality, many of the traits that can make school or traditional offices hard are exactly the traits that make for excellent ML engineers, applied scientists & MLOps specialists. This guide is written for neurodivergent ML job seekers in the UK. We’ll explore: What neurodiversity means in a machine learning context How ADHD, autism & dyslexia strengths map to ML roles Practical workplace adjustments you can ask for under UK law How to talk about neurodivergence in applications & interviews By the end, you’ll have a clearer sense of where you might thrive in ML – & how to turn “different thinking” into a genuine career advantage.

Machine Learning Hiring Trends 2026: What to Watch Out For (For Job Seekers & Recruiters)
