🚀 We’re hiring: Principal Data Scientist – Dynamic Systems & Optimisation


📍 Hybrid (Birmingham / Manchester / Remote, UK) | Ideally, office visits should occur once every two weeks (with possible client visits in Manchester) after onboarding and integration into the team, then shift to once a month.


We’re looking for a hands-on Principal Data Scientist to lead the design and optimisation of complex, real-time decision systems, turning data, mathematics, and code into measurable performance gains.


You’ll own the algorithmic roadmap, driving innovation in optimisation, modelling, and simulation. Expect deep work in advanced SQL, Python, and mathematical problem solving — applying logic, statistics, and weighted decisioning to real-world business challenges.


This role blends technical depth with strategic influence: you’ll collaborate with product, engineering, and business teams to deliver scalable, data-driven solutions that make a real impact.


What’s essential:


🔹 Advanced SQL & data modelling (critical)

🔹 Mathematical optimisation & statistical reasoning

🔹 Algorithm design & performance measurement

🔹 Python for prototyping and experimentation

🔹 Agile mindset and stakeholder engagement


💡 If you’re a data scientist who thrives on translating mathematical theory into elegant, production-ready systems, we’d love to hear from you.

You’ll get a clean CV anatomy, a phrase bank for measurable bullets, GitHub & portfolio tips, and three copy-ready UK examples (junior, mid, research).

Why AI Careers in the UK Are Becoming More Multidisciplinary

Artificial intelligence is no longer a single-discipline pursuit. In the UK, employers increasingly want talent that can code and communicate, model and manage risk, experiment and empathise. That shift is reshaping job descriptions, training pathways & career progression. AI is touching regulated sectors, sensitive user journeys & public services — so the work now sits at the crossroads of computer science, law, ethics, psychology, linguistics & design. This isn’t a buzzword-driven change. It’s happening because real systems are deployed in the wild where people have rights, needs, habits & constraints. As models move from lab demos to products that diagnose, advise, detect fraud, personalise education or generate media, teams must align performance with accountability, safety & usability. The UK’s maturing AI ecosystem — from startups to FTSE 100s, consultancies, the public sector & universities — is responding by hiring multidisciplinary teams who can anticipate social impact as confidently as they ship features. Below, we unpack the forces behind this change, spotlight five disciplines now fused with AI roles, show what it means for UK job-seekers & employers, and map practical steps to future-proof your CV.
