The Team

Our teams operate at the forefront of Fixed Income innovation, building and maintaining foundational data products that power credit and risk workflows across institutional finance. In Capital Structure, our products are core to credit risk analysis, enabling clients to assess the complete financial structure of a corporate group, including maturity distribution, payment waterfall, guarantees, and resource mapping. Especially for high‑yield and leveraged segments, accurate capital structure data is increasingly indispensable for integrating financials, valuations, and credit assessments. The growing focus on this area is amplified by our recent expansion into Loans indices, which further elevate data expectations.

In this role, you will design and maintain data acquisition pipelines, support data extraction efforts, and take ownership of several data quality initiatives, including establishing new measurement frameworks, anomaly detection, and monitoring solutions. You will implement solutions using traditional programming, machine learning and AI, and human‑in‑the‑loop approaches to ensure our data is fit‑for‑purpose for our clients. You will work closely with our Engineering partners, our Data Product Owner as well as Product teams, and you will need to coordinate with multi‑disciplinary and regional teams and have experience in project management and stakeholder engagement.

  • Apply statistical methods and data profiling to evaluate and continuously improve data quality
  • Engage stakeholders across regions and disciplines, providing technical guidance and building awareness of data quality best practices
  • Stay current on data engineering trends, tools, and industry standards to strengthen our technical capabilities

You’ll Need To Have

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.
