A growing player in the ESG space is looking for a Data Scientist, with experience in the risk space, to shape and deliver analytics capabilities for their risk and ESG-focused product. This is a chance to join a data-led business with an abundance of unique internal datasets and real appetite to explore external sources to enhance its insight-driven platform.

Sitting within a collaborative, cross-functional team, you'll take ownership of building and deploying risk models that span from individual company assessments to broader supply chain evaluations. You’ll also play a key role in developing generative AI capabilities for insight reporting and contribute directly to new product development alongside Product, BI and wider Data Science teams.

Key Responsibilities

  • Build and implement risk models across companies and construction supply chains.
  • Source and analyse new datasets to drive product innovation and insight.
  • Collaborate with Product, BI and Data Science teams to deliver value to clients.
  • Lead GenAI-driven reporting for the risk product.
  • Communicate complex insights in a clear, commercial way.

What We’re Looking For

  • Strong skills in SQL and Python for data analysis and modelling.
  • Proactive mindset with the ability to operate autonomously.
  • Excellent communication skills for technical and non-technical audiences.
  • Experience in risk analysis, ideally in finance, insurance, or supply chains.
  • Knowledge of UK company law or insolvency risk is a bonus.
  • Experience with PowerBI or similar data visualisation tools.

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.

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.
