Your new company

Working for a globally renowned telecoms organisation.

Your new role

We are looking for an experienced Data Analyst / Analytics Engineer to design, build and optimise scalable analytical datasets that power business intelligence, reporting, and commercial analytics.

This role sits within a multidisciplinary data team responsible for delivering reliable, high‑quality analytical data products used across commercial and marketing functions. The ideal candidate will bring strong analytical thinking, advanced SQL expertise, and hands-on experience with GCP/BigQuery, Looker, and Qlik Sense. They will have a proven track record of designing analytics‑ready datasets leveraged by BI tools and semantic layers.

This is not a pipeline engineering role. We are seeking someone who excels in analysing/ developing analytical data models, defining consistent business metrics, and enabling self‑service analytics across the organisation.

What you'll need to succeed

Highly proficient in SQL, with hands-on experience developing complex analytical transformations.

Demonstrated ability to build robust analytical data models for BI tools and reporting platforms.

Strong experience using BI Tool Qliksense.

Skilled in working with semantic and metrics layers, including tools such as Looker and LookML.

Adept at defining and maintaining consistent business metrics across reporting and analytics functions.

Proficiency in SQL, GCP big query and good knowledge of Python.

Experienced in designing analytics-ready datasets, focusing on usability rather than pure ingestion pipelines.

Strong working knowledge of Google BigQuery and the wider Google Cloud Platform ecosystem.

Excellent data analysis and profiling skills, with the ability to interpret and draw insights from complex datasets.

Experienced in implementing analytical modelling techniques, including star schemas and wide-table designs.

Background working in Telecommunications, particularly within commercial or marketing analytics teams.

Exceptional communication abilities and strong stakeholder management skills.

What you'll get in return

Flexible working options available.

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.
