Hire data scientists and analysts in the UK
Data Science Jobs is the UK board for people whose work is statistics, experimentation and modelling — data scientists, analysts who model rather than report, and the researchers behind them. Advertise a role to them directly and pay a fixed price once.
- What it costs
- From £99 for a 30-day listing. Pay once — no subscription, no recruiter fee, no percentage of salary.
- How fast it goes live
- One working day. A person reads every advert before it publishes, usually within a couple of hours.
- Who reads it
- Data scientists, statisticians and applied researchers, from product experimentation teams to insurers and pharma. Most are employed and read this board to see which organisations have real data, real questions and a team that gets to answer them.
- What it is not
- A CV database you rent, or an agency taking a fee on the hire. You post the role; candidates come to you.

There are three ways to fill a Data Science role. We are honest about being one of them.
Data science is a title that has come to mean everything from dashboards to causal inference, which makes the route that can say which one it is offering the one that gets answered. Here is the short version, including where a board is the wrong tool.
A specialist board
You are hereFixed, from £99 per role
You know roughly who you want, the salary is competitive, and you want the applications to land in your own inbox or ATS.
You need someone headhunted out of a named competitor, or the role is confidential.
A generalist platform
Per-click or per-slot, unbounded
Volume roles where reach matters more than fit, and hiring for functions outside engineering at the same time.
Any role that needs modelling depth. The title draws every graduate of every bootcamp on a generalist site, and the scientist who has run an experiment that changed a decision is one CV in hundreds.
A recruitment agency
Typically 15–25% of first-year salary
Heads of data science and principal scientists, and any search for a specific domain background — clinical, actuarial, econometric — where people are approached rather than advertised to.
Roles you can attract directly. On a £90k salary the fee is most of a hiring budget.
Who actually reads this board
A smaller audience than a generalist site, and one that reads the problem, not the title. People arrive here because they model data for a living and want to see who is hiring for experimentation, forecasting, causal inference and applied research this month — and whether the role is analysis or science.

What Data Science roles pay in the UK
Built from the salaries stated in live adverts on this board, not a survey — the range employers are advertising, and its midpoint.
Data science pay varies more within the title than almost any other in tech, which is why the band is the first thing a strong candidate looks for. An advert that names the number and says whether the work is analysis, experimentation or research draws the right people; one that hides it draws everyone.
