Head of Data & BI / York (3x per week) / £90k-£95k

We're hiring a Head of Data & BI to take full ownership of an established but evolving data function within a growing, commercially driven business.

This is a hands-on leadership role, not a pure strategy position. You'll operate as a player-manager, leading a small team while remaining close to the tech, delivery, and stakeholders.

The environment is already strong, with a well-regarded Power BI estate, but now needs someone who can bring structure, prioritisation, and commercial impact.

What do we need from you?

Strong Power BI expertise (core to the environment)

Solid experience with Azure, SQL, and ideally Python

Proven ability to lead small teams while staying hands-on

Experience working closely with senior stakeholders

Ability to prioritise workload and align data to business needs

Role overview

You'll take ownership of a split data platform, including a large Power BI estate and a partially outsourced data warehouse.

This role exists to bring:

Clear ownership and direction

Better stakeholder engagement and prioritisation

Stronger focus on delivery and business outcomesYou'll also act as a Data Product Owner, ensuring the team is solving the right problems, not just responding to requests.

Key focus areas

Own and evolve the end-to-end BI & data platform

Lead a small team while remaining hands-on in delivery

Drive data-led decision making across the business

Improve stakeholder engagement and demand management

Ensure reliable reporting, including business-critical financial data

Support and shape a future Microsoft Fabric migration

Balance BAU support with ongoing platform improvements

Why join?

Full autonomy to shape the data function

Broad role across BI, engineering, and product ownership

Opportunity to drive real commercial value from data

Work on high-impact, business-critical use cases

A platform with strong foundations but huge scope to improve

If you're a hands-on data leader who enjoys owning problems, delivering solutions, and working closely with the business, apply now with a CV to Dominic Brown on

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.
