## About the Role

* Deep Applied Data Science Expertise - you bring 5+ years of hands-on experience delivering end-to-end machine learning and statistical solutions in production environments.
 * Commercial Problem Solver - you're confident translating ambiguous business challenges into hypothesis-driven data science solutions, and equally comfortable presenting findings and influencing decision-making at the senior client level.
 * Technical Leader - you set the bar for code quality, reproducibility, and best practices, and take pride in mentoring and developing others. You understand that the measure of success is client outcomes, not model sophistication.
 * Awareness of Generative AI - some exposure to LLMs, RAG pipelines, or agentic workflows is a plus, though strong data science fundamentals will always take priority.

## Description

You'll own the full lifecycle of data science engagements, from shaping ambiguous problems through to deploying production-grade models that embed into real operational workflows.

This isn't a research or experimentation role - it's delivery-focused, commercially grounded, and built for someone who thrives at the intersection of rigorous data science and client impact. You'll work across organisations at every stage of data maturity, set the technical standard internally, and develop the next generation of data scientists within the team.
