Insurance Pricing, Data Science and Advanced Analytics Recruitment Specialist Perm | Contract I Insurtech I General Insurance I Broking I Lloyds…
£65,000 + bonus + benefits | 2 days/week Manchester (moving to 3 days soon)
If you’re a pricing data scientist who wants to lean harder into ML (or you’re an ML engineer who enjoys commercial, real-world modelling), this is one of those roles where Python is central to everything.
You’ll join a high-performing ML team (4 ML engineers today) with genuine buy-in from the wider business and a strong pipeline of interesting work. The team is growing, and so is the opportunity to step up.
What you’ll be doing

Building and improving pricing models using Python
Working on GLMs and GBMs (this is not an LLM/neural-network role)
Translating model outputs into decisions that move the needle commercially
Collaborating closely with ML engineers, pricing, and stakeholders across the business
Helping shape how the team scales as hiring continues

Why this role stands out

Python-first environment with meaningful engineering/ML focus
Huge internal support for ML and analytics
A team that’s already established, but still early enough for you to have real influence
Clear career progression as the function expands over the next 12–24+ months

What they’re looking for

Strong Python and experience delivering models into production or production-like settings
Background in pricing analytics / data science / ML engineering
Comfortable with GLMs/GBMs and rigorous modelling practices
A career-focused person who wants to grow with a scaling team

📍 Location: Manchester (Hybrid — 2 days/week in office, moving to 3 days/week soon)
💷 Package: up to £65,000 base + bonus + benefits
