We’re looking for a Data Analyst to join our Change & Transformation Team at Flutter UK & Ireland, focussing on developing our Strategic Workforce Planning Data capability.


As a Data Analyst you will strengthen the Strategic Workforce Planning (SWP) function by building and maintaining high‑quality workforce datasets and models. You’ll own the “data engine” behind SWP—pulling data from multiple sources, validating and cleansing it, improving definitions and controls, and producing clear outputs that leaders can trust. You’ll also help the team explore practical uses of AI to improve data quality, efficiency, and insight generation.


What You’ll Do

  • Extract, prepare, and maintain workforce data from multiple sources (HRIS, ATS, finance, and operational systems), including repeatable refresh routines, data dictionaries, and a clear audit trail.
  • Validate and cleanse data across sources through reconciliations, exception reporting, duplicate removal, standardisation, and taxonomy alignment, while tracking quality metrics and driving fixes with data owners.
  • Build and maintain Excel models supporting strategic workforce planning, including baseline workforce views, supply/demand analysis, scenario modelling, and governance‑ready charts and outputs.
  • Continuously improve analytical capability over time through automation, structured templates, and sensitivity testing.
  • Identify and trial practical AI‑assisted improvements to data processes — such as classification, anomaly detection, and documentation — sharing learnings and operating within company policy.
  • Partner with HR, Finance, and business stakeholders to resolve data discrepancies, clarify definitions, and support the SWP Lead with analysis for planning cycles, transformation programmes, and executive reporting.

How You’ll Do It

  • Advanced Excel skills including pivots, XLOOKUP, SUMIFS, IF logic, and data validation, with Power Query/Power Pivot and basic DAX experience a strong advantage.
  • High data literacy with a proven ability to manage data quality, perform reconciliations, and work confidently with large, multi‑source datasets.
  • Basic SQL or experience querying reporting tools, ideally with exposure to HR/people data concepts such as headcount, FTE, job families, and org structures.
  • Clear, precise communicator who can document assumptions, explain changes, and present findings to stakeholders in plain language.
  • Proactive, detail‑oriented, and dependable – you spot anomalies before others do, propose fixes rather than just flagging issues, and deliver accurate work under deadline pressure.
  • Genuine curiosity about AI and its practical application in analytics workflows, combined with a respect for governance, data privacy, and controls.

What’s In It For You

  • Flexible ways of working
  • £1,000 learning fund
  • Twice‑yearly bonus (with part of it guaranteed!)
  • Pension contribution scheme
  • Private healthcare
  • Access to thousands of Udemy courses
  • Invest via the Company Sharesave Scheme
  • 16 hours paid volunteering time per year
  • Uncapped holiday

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

Advertising data science jobs in the UK requires a different approach to most technical hiring. 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.

This article highlights new and high-growth data science employers to watch in 2026, focusing on UK startups, scale-ups, and global firms expanding their data science operations locally.

How Many Data Science Tools Do You Need to Know to Get a Data Science Job?

If you’re trying to break into data science — or progress your career — it can feel like you are drowning in names: Python, R, TensorFlow, PyTorch, SQL, Spark, AWS, Scikit-learn, Jupyter, Tableau, Power BI…the list just keeps going. With every job advert listing a different combination of tools, many applicants fall into a trap: they try to learn everything. The result? Long tool lists that sound impressive — but little depth to back them up. Here’s the straight-talk version most hiring managers won’t explicitly tell you: 👉 You don’t need to know every data science tool to get hired. 👉 You need to know the right ones — deeply — and know how to use them to solve real problems. Tools matter, but only in service of outcomes. So how many data science tools do you actually need to know to get a job? For most job seekers, the answer is not “27” — it’s more like 8–12, thoughtfully chosen and well understood. This guide explains what employers really value, which tools are core, which are role-specific, and how to focus your toolbox so your CV and interviews shine.
