Data Science Consultant – Contract with genuine potential for extensions


Location:Hybrid (On-site workshops in Manchester, remote working for development/testing)


Contract Type:Fixed-term consultancy contract (with potential for further work)


About our client: Rove:


  • At Rove, we’re on a mission to help consumer brands expand into international markets faster, cheaper, and more strategically.
  • We’re an early-stage startup with big ambitions, and we’re building a proprietary “Rove Score” – a data-driven framework to pinpoint the best global opportunities for brands based on a vast and varied range of datasets.


What We Need from our experienced Data Scientist:


  • We’re looking for a Data Science expert who can roll up their sleeves and help shape one of the core innovations of our product.
  • This is a knotty, complex challenge – how do you reliably score international market opportunities for brands when there’s so much data to absorb, interpret, and turn into actionable insights?


You’ll be working with us at Rove to:


  • Develop and refine the Rove scoring methodology: Incorporate diverse data sources (our own data, third-party APIs, SaaS platforms, and AI-driven outputs) to generate a robust, scalable scoring system.
  • Augment and enrich data sets: Identify clever ways to blend disparate data points to infer meaningful outcomes, ensuring we can handle complexity and variability without compromising on reliability.
  • Workshop & scope the challenge: Attend in-person sessions in Manchester to understand the product useful.
  • Collaborative but self-sufficient vision, define project scope, and plan the data strategy.
  • Test & iterate: Put the scoring system through its paces with multiple scenarios, identifying potential gaps, refining approaches, and ensuring repeatability and consistency.


What you need to bring as a Data Scientist for Rove:


  • Proven data science expertise: You’ll have demonstrable experience in building, refining, and validating complex data models.
  • Skilled in data augmentation & inference: You know how to leverage diverse data sources to infer trends, patterns, and outcomes.
  • Problem-solver at heart: You thrive on complexity and love turning messy data into something neat, logical, and instantly: Comfortable leading workshops and collaborating closely with the founding team, while also able to work independently to deliver results.
  • Inspiring & entrepreneurial: You’re excited by the early-stage startup environment, where your contributions can truly shape a product’s trajectory and differentiation.


Why Work With Us at Rove?


  • High-impact opportunity: You’ll be instrumental in defining one of our key USPs.
  • Flexibility: Workshops in person but the majority of the project can be done remotely.
  • Potential for more: While this is initially a fixed-term engagement, there’s room to continue if it’s a great fit on both sides.


If you’re excited by the idea of turning messy global data sources into a crystal-clear scoring system that guides consumer brands to their next big international leap, we’d love to hear from you.


Please note that we will NOT accept unsolicited headhunter / agency resume's. Rove will not pay any third-party agency or company that does not have a signed agreement with Rove.

How to Find Hidden AI Jobs in the UK Using Professional Bodies like BCS, IET & the Turing Society

When it comes to job hunting in artificial intelligence (AI), most candidates head straight to traditional job boards, LinkedIn, or recruitment agencies. But what if there was a better way to find roles that aren’t advertised publicly? What if you could access hidden job leads, gain inside knowledge, or get referred by people already in the field? That’s where professional bodies and specialist AI communities come in. In this article, we’ll explore how UK-based organisations like BCS (The Chartered Institute for IT), IET (The Institution of Engineering and Technology), and the Turing Society can help you uncover AI job opportunities you won’t find elsewhere. We'll show you how to strategically use their directories, special-interest groups (SIGs), and CPD (Continuing Professional Development) events to elevate your career and expand your AI job search in ways most job seekers overlook.
