About Measure
Measure is building the world's first ethical and transparent human data marketplace.

The world we live in is awash in data: what we watch and wear, who we know, what we do, and how we live our lives. Unfortunately, most of this data is owned and controlled by corporations and we have very little say in when and where it gets used, let alone being compensated for its use.

Measure has a bold mission with a lot of complexities, but they believe there is a real opportunity to change how we manage and monetise our data lives with more control, and in a way that benefits us personally, and as a society as a whole with better data-supported decisions.

Measure has recently raised investment from both venture capital and strategic firms and work with some of the world's leading brands to provide them access to consumer behavioural data which has not previously been obtainable.

The Role:
Data Cleaning and Preparation:
Collect, clean, and prepare large media datasets from various sources (CRM, ad servers, audience panels) for analysis.
Statistical Analysis:
Utilise econometric techniques like regression analysis, time series modelling, and panel data analysis to identify relationships between media spend and business outcomes.
Model Validation and Interpretation:
Evaluate the accuracy and robustness of models, interpret results, and communicate findings to stakeholders in a clear and concise manner.
Campaign Optimisation:
Provide data-driven insights to inform media buying strategies, including channel allocation, budget optimisation, and creative testing.
Advanced Analytics:
Explore new data analysis techniques like machine learning to enhance model accuracy and uncover deeper insights.
Your Experience and Skills:
Data Science:
Proficient in programming languages like Python, R, and SQL including data manipulation, data imputation, statistical modelling, and visualisation libraries.
Econometrics Background Useful:
Expertise in statistical methods like linear regression, generalised linear models, panel data analysis, and time series forecasting.
Media Industry Knowledge:
Understanding of media landscape, ad formats, audience measurement, and industry KPIs.
Communication Skills:
Ability to clearly communicate complex statistical concepts and insights to non-technical stakeholders.
Business Acumen:
Understanding of business objectives and ability to translate data insights into actionable strategies.
Additional Skills:
Marketing Mix Modelling (MMM):
Build and maintain complex MMM models to assess the incremental impact of different media channels (TV, digital, print) on sales, considering factors like seasonality and competition.
Campaign Optimisation:
Provide data-driven insights to inform media buying strategies, including channel allocation, budget optimisation, and creative testing.

Quantum-Enhanced AI in Data Science: Embracing the Next Frontier

Data science has undergone a staggering transformation in the past decade, evolving from a niche academic discipline into a linchpin of modern industry. Across every sector—finance, healthcare, retail, manufacturing—data scientists have become indispensable, leveraging statistical methods and machine learning to turn raw information into actionable insights. Yet as datasets grow ever larger and machine learning models become more computationally expensive, there are genuine questions about how far current methods can be pushed. Enter quantum computing, a nascent but promising technology grounded in the counterintuitive principles of quantum mechanics. Often dismissed just a few years ago as purely experimental, quantum computing is quickly gaining traction as prototypes evolve into cloud-accessible machines. When paired with artificial intelligence—particularly in the realm of data science—the results could be game-changing. From faster model training and complex optimisation to entirely new forms of data analysis, quantum-enhanced AI stands poised to disrupt established practices and create new opportunities. In this article, we will: Explore how data science has reached its current limits in certain areas, and why classical hardware might no longer suffice. Provide an accessible overview of quantum computing concepts and how they differ from classical systems. Examine the potential of quantum-enhanced AI to solve key data science challenges, from data wrangling to advanced machine learning. Highlight real-world applications, emerging job roles, and the skills you need to thrive in this new landscape. Offer actionable steps for data professionals eager to stay ahead of the curve in a rapidly evolving field. Whether you’re a practising data scientist, a student weighing up your future specialisations, or an executive curious about the next technological leap, read on. The quantum era may be closer than you think, and it promises to radically transform the very fabric of data science.
