Senior Data Scientist – Fast Growing Market Intelligence Group

To £80,000 plus bonus/benefits; hybrid working (London)


Hugely exciting opportunity for an innovative Senior Data Scientist to further develop platform capabilities of this fast growing market intelligence provider!


Taking ownership of data science activity for the group, you’ll engage with the leadership, research/analyst and data engineering teams re modelling direction, technical decisions, and delivery timelines to build, test, and optimise solutions that feed directly into their intelligence and forecasting led products; as such you’ll be behind product innovation and have exposure to a wide range of data-sets re to establish trends and insights. Essentially the role will encompass forecasting and modelling; analysis and insight generation; data acquisition and integration. In time this will lead to thought leadership, best practice and overall data science strategy for the group. In short, you’re there to enhance their overall market intelligence offering as they continue to expand globally.


This is totally going to suit a talented Data Scientist who’s now about ready to kick back and do their best work yet – you’ve possibly worked in scale-ups or similar previously, are agile within a fast moving environment, and you’re itching for that role where this time you get the ownership and autonomy you haven’t had previously. This is that proverbial next step role that’s all about growth, development and true realisation of your data science potential (so maybe it doesn’t suit those who’ve already done it too many times before in big teams and corporates)! Technically its advantageous if you have previously worked with market intelligence or data analytics products previously in a data science capacity – probably via research/intelligence agency, consultancy or similar – and you’ll be a whiz with Python, machine learning, temporal datasets and geospatial data (amongst other usual attributes in a data scientist’s arsenal).


There’s a lot more we could tell you – not least you’re going to love the company culture; they’re in an exciting, ‘all hands on deck’ growth phase but retain a very warm, human touch – but we’ll do that when we chat. Once you’ve read this and think most of what’s been said applies to you (it’s vital it does because they need someone who has an affinity with much of the aforementioned to step in and ‘do the do’), then get in touch!

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.

AI Jobs for Career Switchers in Their 30s, 40s & 50s (UK Reality Check)

Changing career into artificial intelligence in your 30s, 40s or 50s is no longer unusual in the UK. It is happening quietly every day across fintech, healthcare, retail, manufacturing, government & professional services. But it is also surrounded by hype, fear & misinformation. This article is a realistic, UK-specific guide for career switchers who want the truth about AI jobs: what roles genuinely exist, what skills employers actually hire for, how long retraining really takes & whether age is a barrier (spoiler: not in the way people think). If you are considering a move into AI but want facts rather than Silicon Valley fantasy, this is for you.

How to Write an AI Job Ad That Attracts the Right People

Artificial intelligence is now embedded across almost every sector of the UK economy. From fintech and healthcare to retail, defence and climate tech, organisations are competing for AI talent at an unprecedented pace. Yet despite the volume of AI job adverts online, many employers struggle to attract the right candidates. Roles are flooded with unsuitable applications, while highly capable AI professionals scroll past adverts that feel vague, inflated or disconnected from reality. In most cases, the issue isn’t a shortage of AI talent — it’s the quality of the job advert. Writing an effective AI job ad requires more care than traditional tech hiring. AI professionals are analytical, sceptical of hype and highly selective about where they apply. A poorly written advert doesn’t just fail to convert — it actively damages your credibility. This guide explains how to write an AI job ad that attracts the right people, filters out mismatches and positions your organisation as a serious employer in the AI space.
