DATA SCIENTIST – HYBRID (London, 3 days a week)

£50,000–£75,000 based on experience


THE COMPANY

An opportunity to join a high-performing data team at a global marketing and customer experience company. You’ll work across a variety of data science challenges — from prototyping ideas to deploying full-scale ML solutions — in a fast-paced, collaborative environment.

This role is ideal for someone with strong technical foundations and a generalist mindset, looking to grow quickly and make a tangible impact across major client projects.


THE ROLE

As a Data Scientist, you will:

  • Build and deploy machine learning solutions end-to-end, from SQL-based feature engineering to model development in Python and cloud deployment (AWS)
  • Prototype and test new ideas that solve real business problems or spark client innovation
  • Take ownership of workstreams within larger projects, with opportunities to lead as you grow
  • Work across the stack — from APIs and infrastructure to model tuning and validation
  • Communicate clearly with both technical and non-technical audiences
  • Bring curiosity, pace, and clarity to everything you do


YOUR SKILLS AND EXPERIENCE

Must-Have:

  • Degree in a STEM field or equivalent hands-on experience
  • 1–4 years’ experience delivering ML solutions in production, ideally in fast-moving teams or startups
  • Strong Python and SQL skills; experience building and deploying models end-to-end
  • Familiarity with AWS (or similar), Git, and CI/CD pipelines
  • Ability to work independently and manage priorities in a high-velocity environment
  • Excellent communication and documentation under pressure


Nice-to-Have:

  • Experience with marketing data or customer-level models (e.g. uplift, attribution, causal inference, campaign optimization)
  • Familiarity with MLOps tools (e.g. MLflow, FastAPI, Airflow)
  • Exposure to A/B testing and experimentation frameworks


WHY THIS ROLE IS DIFFERENT

This isn’t a narrow data science role — you won’t just tune models or clean data. You’ll do it all, with support where needed and freedom to explore. It’s the perfect step for someone who wants to move fast, own their growth, and help shape impactful AI solutions in a cross-disciplinary setting.

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.
