The Role

We’re looking for a Senior Data Scientist to play a pivotal role in shaping and delivering our data strategy. This is a high-impact, hands-on position combining deep technical execution with strategic influence across the business.

You’ll lead key data science initiatives, work closely with stakeholders across commercial, product, and technical teams, and help define how we leverage data as a true business superpower.

Key Responsibilities

Lead the design, development, and deployment of data science solutions that deliver tangible commercial value

Work hands-on (“on the tools”) across the full data science lifecycle, from exploration to production

Shape and contribute to the company’s evolving data strategy

Manage and mentor a team of two Data Scientists

Promote best practices in data science, including experimentation, model validation, and reproducibility

Communicate complex findings clearly to both technical and non-technical audiences

What We’re Looking For

Proven experience in a Senior Data Scientist or similar role, ideally within a SaaS or data-driven environment

Strong hands-on expertise in data science tools and techniques (e.g. Python, machine learning, statistical modelling)

Experience delivering data-driven solutions with measurable commercial impact

Exposure to or experience with Elastic (Elasticsearch) is highly desirable

Demonstrated experience managing or mentoring junior team members

Excellent stakeholder management skills, with the ability to influence across multiple functions

Strong problem-solving mindset with a proactive, commercially focused approach

Why Join Us?

Be at the heart of a business where data truly drives decision-making

Shape the future of our data capability and strategy

Work on meaningful, high-impact projects with real commercial outcomes

Opportunity to lead, mentor, and grow a talented data team

Collaborative, fast-paced SME environment with real ownership and visibility

Where to Advertise AI Jobs in the UK (2026 Guide)

Where to advertise AI jobs UK in 2026: the specialist boards and communities that reach AI engineers, ML scientists and applied research talent in the UK. The candidate pool is small, highly informed and in demand across multiple sectors simultaneously. General job boards reach a broad audience but lack the specificity that AI professionals expect — and the filtering mechanisms they rely on. Specialist platforms, direct outreach and academic channels each serve a different part of the market. This guide, published by ArtificialIntelligenceJobs.co.uk, covers where to advertise AI roles in the UK in 2026, how the main platforms compare, what employers should expect to pay, and what the data says about time-to-hire across different role types.

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

AI Jobs UK 2026: roles, salaries and the generative AI, machine learning and applied AI hiring trends shaping UK artificial intelligence careers. Artificial intelligence is creating jobs faster than the market can name them. New roles are appearing every quarter, existing titles are splitting into specialisms, and the technologies underpinning it all are evolving at a pace that makes even last year's job descriptions feel dated. For job seekers, this presents a genuinely unusual challenge. In most industries, career planning means understanding a relatively stable landscape and working out where you fit within it. In AI, the landscape itself is being redrawn in real time. The roles with the most hiring activity in 2028 may not yet have a widely agreed job title in 2026. That's not a reason to feel overwhelmed — it's a reason to get informed. The candidates who thrive in this market aren't necessarily those with the longest CVs or the most credentials. They're the ones who understand the direction of travel: which skills are gaining value, which technologies are driving employer decisions, and how the definition of an "AI job" is expanding well beyond the tech sector. This article breaks down what the UK AI jobs market is likely to look like over the next three years — covering emerging job titles, the technologies reshaping hiring, the skills employers are prioritising, and how to position yourself ahead of the curve rather than behind it.
