Data Scientist
Location:Manchester (Hybrid - 2 to 3 days on-site)
Salary:Up to £55,000 + benefits
Industry:eCommerce

I'm recruiting on behalf of a fast-growing eCommerce business in Manchester that's looking for a Data Scientist to join their team. It's a hands-on role with a real opportunity to build and deploy machine learning models that directly impact how they serve and retain customers.

They've got rich datasets from web traffic, transactions, and customer behaviour and they're keen to turn that into smarter recommendations, better pricing strategies, and predictive insights that drive growth.

You'll be leading on end-to-end model development: exploring the data, experimenting with algorithms, tuning performance, and deploying models into production. This isn't a research role, they want someone who enjoys solving real business problems and seeing their work make a difference.

What they're looking for:

Strong Python skills and experience with ML libraries like scikit-learn, TensorFlow or PyTorch
A good understanding of the full ML lifecycle - from data wrangling to live deployment
Comfortable working with both structured and unstructured datasets
Ideally some experience deploying models via APIs or using cloud platforms like AWS or GCP

Bonus if you have:

Experience of Regression Modelling, Time Series Forecasting and Cluster Modelling
Familiarity with recommendation systems, customer segmentation or demand forecasting

They're a collaborative bunch, data has real buy-in across the business, and you'll be working closely with product managers, marketers, and engineers. It's a great opportunity to join a business that's scaling up fast, with plenty of room to grow your career as they expand.

If it sounds like a fit, drop me a message and I'll tell you more.

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.

Data Science Jobs UK 2026: What to Expect Over the Next 3 Years

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.
