Are you a motivated Business Intelligence Developer? This is an exciting opportunity to join an agile BI team and help transform reporting and analytics across the organisation.

In this role, you’ll design and build governed, high-performance reporting models using Azure Databricks and Azure SQL. Your work will underpin certified Tableau data sources and executive reporting across Finance, Compliance, Operations, and Senior Leadership.

This is more than dashboard development — it’s an opportunity to shape the BI platform, embed governance, and mature an evolving reporting landscape.

What You’ll Do

  • Design and develop scalable data transformations in Azure Databricks using Python and Spark
  • Build and maintain star-schema models aligned to business KPI definitions
  • Collaborate with Data Engineering to improve data quality and reliability
  • Support and enhance Tableau dashboards and certified data sources
  • Centralise KPI logic and improve reporting consistency and governance
  • Optimise performance, refresh reliability, and row-level security
  • Contribute to sprint-based delivery (Jira-managed backlog) and shared BI Duty ownership

What We’re Looking For

  • 3+ years’ experience in BI, analytics engineering, or data-focused roles
  • Strong SQL skills (complex queries, optimisation, data validation)
  • Hands-on experience with Python and Spark, ideally in Azure Databricks
  • Experience designing and maintaining star-schema models
  • Experience supporting reporting in Tableau or Power BI
  • Solid understanding of data warehousing, governance, and KPI standardisation
  • Strong stakeholder communication and problem-solving skills

Desirable

  • Experience in financial services or regulated environments
  • Exposure to Azure SQL, Tableau Server, row-level security, or cloud BI platforms
  • Experience rationalising legacy reporting and improving governance frameworks
  • Familiarity with modern semantic modelling approaches (e.g. Microsoft Fabric)

Where to Advertise Data Science Jobs in the UK (2026 Guide)

Where to advertise data science jobs UK in 2026: the specialist boards, communities and channels that actually reach senior and lead data science talent. Data science spans a broad and often misunderstood spectrum — from statistical modelling and experimental design through to machine learning engineering, product analytics and AI research. The strongest candidates identify firmly with specific subdisciplines and are frustrated by adverts that conflate data scientist with data analyst, business intelligence developer or machine learning engineer. General job boards produce high application volumes for data roles but consistently fail to match specialist data science profiles with the right opportunities. This guide, published by DataScienceJobs.co.uk, covers where to advertise data science roles in the UK in 2026, how the main platforms compare, what employers should expect to pay, and what the data says about hiring across different role types.

Data Science Jobs UK 2026: What to Expect Over the Next 3 Years

Data Science Jobs UK 2026: roles, salaries and the trends shaping UK data science hiring over the next three years — from MLE crossover to GenAI workflows. Data science has spent the past decade being described as the sexiest job of the twenty-first century. By 2026, the reality is both more nuanced and more interesting than that label ever suggested. The discipline has matured, fragmented, deepened, and in some respects reinvented itself — and the jobs market has changed with it in ways that create genuine opportunity for those who understand what employers actually want, and genuine difficulty for those still operating on assumptions formed five years ago. The data science jobs market of 2026 is not simply a larger version of what it was three years ago. The generalist data scientist — equally comfortable wrangling data, building models, and presenting insights to the board — is giving way to a more specialised landscape where employers know exactly what problem they are trying to solve and are looking for candidates with the specific depth to solve it. Machine learning engineering, causal inference, experimentation, AI product development, and domain-specific applied science have all emerged as distinct career tracks within what was previously a single, loosely defined profession. At the same time, the arrival of large language models and the broader AI capability wave has both threatened and created data science roles in equal measure. Some of the work that junior data scientists spent their early careers doing — data cleaning, exploratory analysis, basic model building — is being partially automated by AI tooling. But the demand for practitioners who can evaluate AI systems rigorously, apply statistical thinking to complex business problems, and build the data foundations on which AI depends has grown considerably. The candidates who will thrive over the next three years are those who understand where the discipline is heading — which specialisms are attracting the most investment, which technologies are reshaping what data scientists are expected to build and know, and how to position a data science career that will remain valuable as the field continues to evolve around them. This article breaks down what the UK data science jobs market is likely to look like through to 2028 — covering the titles emerging right now, the technologies driving employer demand, the skills that will matter most, and how to position your career ahead of the curve.
