Milton Keynes (2 days per week)

Salary: £60 000 - £65 000 (slightly negotiable)

Synapri collaborates with a leading content and data provider, to identify a Senior Data Engineer to develop and grow their data capability.

Although previous leadership experience is not required, the client needs someone comfortable enough to step up in their career, mentor 2 more junior members of the team and act as the bridge between the data engineering/ architecture team and the wider business.

Main responsibilities:

  • Design and implement robust data pipelines and platforms to support reporting and operational requirements.

  • Data Warehousing practices, especially using SQL, DataBricks/ Snowflake and ADF (Azure Data Factory)

  • Design and implement modern ETL processes (ensuring seamless data flow and integration across platforms).

  • Advise on data governance policies and procedures to manage the data lifecycle

    Experience needed:

  • Azure tech stake experience including SQL Server, Elastic Pool, SSRS, Azure Data Factory.

  • Working with Snowflake and DataBricks would be a plus.

  • Working with PowerBI and building reports.

  • Implementations in an Agile development environment.

    The role is on a hybrid work model – 2 days per week in the office (Milton Keynes) and 3 days remote.

    If you tick most of the boxes above and have a ‘can do’ attitude, please apply for immediate consideration

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.
