Senior Data Scientist – Fast Growing Market Intelligence Group

To £80,000 plus bonus/benefits; hybrid working (London)


Hugely exciting opportunity for an innovative Senior Data Scientist to further develop platform capabilities of this fast growing market intelligence provider!


Taking ownership of data science activity for the group, you’ll engage with the leadership, research/analyst and data engineering teams re modelling direction, technical decisions, and delivery timelines to build, test, and optimise solutions that feed directly into their intelligence and forecasting led products; as such you’ll be behind product innovation and have exposure to a wide range of data-sets re to establish trends and insights. Essentially the role will encompass forecasting and modelling; analysis and insight generation; data acquisition and integration. In time this will lead to thought leadership, best practice and overall data science strategy for the group. In short, you’re there to enhance their overall market intelligence offering as they continue to expand globally.


This is totally going to suit a talented Data Scientist who’s now about ready to kick back and do their best work yet – you’ve possibly worked in scale-ups or similar previously, are agile within a fast moving environment, and you’re itching for that role where this time you get the ownership and autonomy you haven’t had previously. This is that proverbial next step role that’s all about growth, development and true realisation of your data science potential (so maybe it doesn’t suit those who’ve already done it too many times before in big teams and corporates)! Technically its advantageous if you have previously worked with market intelligence or data analytics products previously in a data science capacity – probably via research/intelligence agency, consultancy or similar – and you’ll be a whiz with Python, machine learning, temporal datasets and geospatial data (amongst other usual attributes in a data scientist’s arsenal).


There’s a lot more we could tell you – not least you’re going to love the company culture; they’re in an exciting, ‘all hands on deck’ growth phase but retain a very warm, human touch – but we’ll do that when we chat. Once you’ve read this and think most of what’s been said applies to you (it’s vital it does because they need someone who has an affinity with much of the aforementioned to step in and ‘do the do’), then get in touch!

Maths for Data Science Jobs: The Only Topics You Actually Need (& How to Learn Them)

If you are applying for data science jobs in the UK, the maths can feel like a moving target. Job descriptions say “strong statistical knowledge” or “solid ML fundamentals” but they rarely tell you which topics you will actually use day to day. Here’s the truth: most UK data science roles do not require advanced pure maths. What they do require is confidence with a tight set of practical topics that come up repeatedly in modelling, experimentation, forecasting, evaluation, stakeholder comms & decision-making. This guide focuses on the only maths most data scientists keep using: Statistics for decision making (confidence intervals, hypothesis tests, power, uncertainty) Probability for real-world data (base rates, noise, sampling, Bayesian intuition) Linear algebra essentials (vectors, matrices, projections, PCA intuition) Calculus & gradients (enough to understand optimisation & backprop) Optimisation & model evaluation (loss functions, cross-validation, metrics, thresholds) You’ll also get a 6-week plan, portfolio projects & a resources section you can follow without getting pulled into unnecessary theory.

Neurodiversity in Data Science Careers: Turning Different Thinking into a Superpower

Data science is all about turning messy, real-world information into decisions, products & insights. It sits at the crossroads of maths, coding, business & communication – which means it needs people who see patterns, ask unusual questions & challenge assumptions. That makes data science a natural fit for many neurodivergent people, including those with ADHD, autism & dyslexia. If you’re neurodivergent & thinking about a data science career, you might have heard comments like “you’re too distracted for complex analysis”, “too literal for stakeholder work” or “too disorganised for large projects”. In reality, the same traits that can make traditional environments difficult often line up beautifully with data science work. This guide is written for data science job seekers in the UK. We’ll explore: What neurodiversity means in a data science context How ADHD, autism & dyslexia strengths map to common data science roles Practical workplace adjustments you can request under UK law How to talk about your neurodivergence in applications & interviews By the end, you’ll have a clearer sense of where you might thrive in data science – & how to turn “different thinking” into a real career advantage.

Data Science Recruitment Trends 2025 (UK): What Job Seekers Need To Know About Today’s Hiring Process

Summary: UK data science hiring has shifted from title‑led CV screens to capability‑driven assessments that emphasise rigorous problem framing, high‑quality analytics & modelling, experiment/causality, production awareness (MLOps), governance/ethics, and measurable product or commercial impact. This guide explains what’s changed, what to expect in interviews & how to prepare—especially for product/data scientists, applied ML scientists, decision scientists, econometricians, growth/marketing analysts, and ML‑adjacent data scientists supporting LLM/AI products. Who this is for: Product/decision/data scientists, applied ML scientists, econometrics & causal inference specialists, experimentation leads, analytics engineers crossing into DS, ML generalists with strong statistics, and data scientists collaborating with platform/MLOps teams in the UK.
