Fantastic opportunity for a well-rounded quantitative researcher to join a growing tech & AI enabled consultancy at Associate Director level. This is a pivotal role in the company where they will look to you to work closely with clients and the team. Your role will focus on making sure the quality of outputs is at the highest level. You will do this by working closely with colleagues, offering them advice and mentorship to produce great work which in turn will help them to continue to learn, develop and grow.


As a senior member of the team, you will also be at the forefront of delivering project winning proposals and be heavily involved in building relationships with new and existing clients. The focus on the work is both strategic and consultative, your clients will therefore look to you to offer advice, give meaning to your findings that they can put into action.

They believe that understanding how and why people act and think can help their clients come to make the right decisions.


A truly unique opportunity for someone who is smart and diligent and thrives on improving standards and helping others.

Why Data Science Careers in the UK Are Becoming More Multidisciplinary

Data science once meant advanced statistics, machine learning models and coding in Python or R. In the UK today, it has become one of the most in-demand professions across sectors — from healthcare to finance, retail to government. But as the field matures, employers now expect more than technical modelling skills. Modern data science is multidisciplinary. It requires not just coding and algorithms, but also legal knowledge, ethical reasoning, psychological insight, linguistic clarity and human-centred design. Data scientists are expected to interpret, communicate and apply data responsibly, with awareness of law, human behaviour and accessibility. In this article, we’ll explore why data science careers in the UK are becoming more multidisciplinary, how these five disciplines intersect with data science, and what job-seekers & employers need to know to succeed in this transformed field.
