The Team

The Small Medium Business (SMB) team are responsible for Deliveroo's relationships with thousands of independent restaurant and retail partners that operate on the Deliveroo marketplace in several markets across Europe, ensuring that they continue to grow and operate well. The SMB team spans the full life-cycle of partner interactions from initial acquisition, onboarding, reactive support and proactive account management. We do this through our in-house contact centre based in Manchester and in collaboration with our third-party contact centre providers.


The Role

The Commercial Excellence Data Analyst is a critical enabler of Deliveroo’s 2026 SMB Ops objective. This role owns the technical, analytical, and reporting capability that transforms large-scale interaction data into actionable commercial insights. By leveraging NICE Interaction Analytics and LLM technology, the role ensures scalable quality measurement, deep insight generation, and data-driven improvements in agent capability, productivity, and commercial outcomes across the SMB Hub. The role acts as the technical owner and subject-matter expert for NICE, while also serving as the analytical engine behind the Commercial Excellence team.


What you will do

  • Act as the primary technical liaison with key suppliers, leading on system development, configuration, testing, troubleshooting, upgrades, and ongoing optimisation.
  • Own the end-to-end configuration of Interaction Analytics/ Speech Analytics and LLM auto-scoring, including prompts, scorecards, workflows, user accounts, and permissions.
  • Proactively identify and resolve data quality, performance, or automation issues to maintain high-quality analysis at scale.
  • Deliver deep-dive analytical insights across SMB departmental business areas, prioritised through requests from the Commercial Excellence Team Leader, Heads of Department and other senior stakeholders across Deliveroo.
  • Translate complex data into clear, actionable insights that link agent behaviour, call quality, merchant sentiment, and commercial outcomes.
  • Own all SMB Hub reporting for the Commercial Excellence team.
  • Automate reporting outputs where possible to reduce manual effort and increase scalability.
  • Support the team’s transition to AI-led quality by reducing manual calibration effort and increasing consistency across evaluations.

Desired experiences and skills

  • Strong experience in advanced data analysis, ideally within an Ops, Quality Assurance, or Commercial environment
  • Strong stakeholder management skills with the ability to prioritise competing analytical requests
  • Ability to conduct advanced analysis across large datasets
  • Experience working with SalesForce
  • Experience working with speech analytics/ AI technologies
  • Can speak fluent English
  • Not compulsory however it would be helpful if the candidate has had experience working within Contact Centre environments

Benefits and Diversity

At Deliveroo we know that people are the heart of the business and we prioritise their welfare. We offer a range of great benefits in areas including health, family, finance, community, convenience, growth, time away and relocation. We believe a great workplace is one that represents the world we live in and how beautifully diverse it can be. That means we have no judgement when it comes to any one of the things that make you who you are - your gender, race, sexuality, religion or a secret aversion to coriander. All you need is the desire to be part of one of the fastest growing startups in an exciting space.

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.

What Hiring Managers Look for First in Data Science Job Applications (UK Guide)

If you’re applying for data science roles in the UK, it’s crucial to understand what hiring managers focus on before they dive into your full CV. In competitive markets, recruiters and hiring managers often make their first decisions in the first 10–20 seconds of scanning an application — and in data science, there are specific signals they look for first. Data science isn’t just about coding or statistics — it’s about producing insights, shipping models, collaborating with teams, and solving real business problems. This guide helps you understand exactly what hiring managers look for first in data science applications — and how to structure your CV, portfolio and cover letter so you leap to the top of the shortlist.

The Skills Gap in Data Science Jobs: What Universities Aren’t Teaching

Data science has become one of the most visible and sought-after careers in the UK technology market. From financial services and retail to healthcare, media, government and sport, organisations increasingly rely on data scientists to extract insight, guide decisions and build predictive models. Universities have responded quickly. Degrees in data science, analytics and artificial intelligence have expanded rapidly, and many computer science courses now include data-focused pathways. And yet, despite the volume of graduates entering the market, employers across the UK consistently report the same problem: Many data science candidates are not job-ready. Vacancies remain open. Hiring processes drag on. Candidates with impressive academic backgrounds fail interviews or struggle once hired. The issue is not intelligence or effort. It is a persistent skills gap between university education and real-world data science roles. This article explores that gap in depth: what universities teach well, what they often miss, why the gap exists, what employers actually want, and how jobseekers can bridge the divide to build successful careers in data science.
