Data Scientist – Pricing (Hospitality & Travel)

London, UK (Hybrid or Remote – Flexible)

Up to £70,000 + Equity + Benefits

About the Company

We’re partnered with a rapidly scaling, Series D tech business that’s transforming commercial decision-making in the hospitality and travel industries through AI and data science. The company leverages modern machine learning techniques to build intelligent pricing and revenue optimization systems that directly impact customer outcomes and business performance.

They’re now hiring a Data Scientist to join their Pricing Algorithms team. In this role, you’ll work on designing, testing, and deploying models that power real-time dynamic pricing decisions at scale. You’ll have the opportunity to build end-to-end solutions, from experimentation through to production, in a highly collaborative, research-driven environment.

Key Responsibilities

  • Develop pricing models that optimize revenue and customer value using machine learning and statistical techniques
  • Contribute to the design and refinement of internal pricing libraries and infrastructure
  • Conduct robust experimentation (A/B testing, simulation, sensitivity analysis) to validate model improvements
  • Collaborate with product and science teams to translate business problems into analytical solutions
  • Write clean, production-ready code and support testing, validation, and monitoring of deployed models
  • Stay up to date with the latest trends in pricing science, ML, and AI

About You

You’re an analytical thinker with experience in pricing, revenue management, or applied machine learning. You thrive in an environment where experimentation, measurable impact, and technical ownership are key. You care about building reliable models that solve complex business problems.

Requirements:

  • 2–4 years of experience in data science, pricing, or revenue management roles
  • Coming from a PhD background
  • Proficiency in Python and core libraries (e.g. NumPy, Pandas, Scikit-learn, SciPy)
  • Solid understanding of statistical modeling and optimization techniques for pricing or revenue problems
  • Experience designing and interpreting controlled experiments (e.g. A/B tests)
  • Familiarity with cloud tools (e.g. GCP, AWS) and orchestration frameworks (e.g. Dagster, Airflow)
  • Comfortable working in a production environment with high model accountability
  • Knowledge of reinforcement learning, demand elasticity modeling, or dynamic pricing is a bonus

Please note: this role does not offer sponsorship.

How Many AI Tools Do You Need to Know to Get an AI Job?

If you are job hunting in AI right now it can feel like you are drowning in tools. Every week there is a new framework, a new “must-learn” platform or a new productivity app that everyone on LinkedIn seems to be using. The result is predictable: job seekers panic-learn a long list of tools without actually getting better at delivering outcomes. Here is the truth most hiring managers will quietly agree with. They do not hire you because you know 27 tools. They hire you because you can solve a problem, communicate trade-offs, ship something reliable and improve it with feedback. Tools matter, but only in service of outcomes. So how many AI tools do you actually need to know? For most AI job seekers: fewer than you think. You need a tight core toolkit plus a role-specific layer. Everything else is optional. This guide breaks it down clearly, gives you a simple framework to choose what to learn and shows you how to present your toolset on your CV, portfolio and interviews.

What Hiring Managers Look for First in AI Job Applications (UK Guide)

Hiring managers do not start by reading your CV line-by-line. They scan for signals. In AI roles especially, they are looking for proof that you can ship, learn fast, communicate clearly & work safely with data and systems. The best applications make those signals obvious in the first 10–20 seconds. This guide breaks down what hiring managers typically look for first in AI applications in the UK market, how to present it on your CV, LinkedIn & portfolio, and the most common reasons strong candidates get overlooked. Use it as a checklist to tighten your application before you click apply.

The Skills Gap in AI Jobs: What Universities Aren’t Teaching

Artificial intelligence is no longer a future concept. It is already reshaping how businesses operate, how decisions are made, and how entire industries compete. From finance and healthcare to retail, manufacturing, defence, and climate science, AI is embedded in critical systems across the UK economy. Yet despite unprecedented demand for AI talent, employers continue to report severe recruitment challenges. Vacancies remain open for months. Salaries rise year on year. Candidates with impressive academic credentials often fail technical interviews. At the heart of this disconnect lies a growing and uncomfortable truth: Universities are not fully preparing graduates for real-world AI jobs. This article explores the AI skills gap in depth—what is missing from many university programmes, why the gap persists, what employers actually want, and how jobseekers can bridge the divide to build a successful career in artificial intelligence.
