💸 £50k plus benefits

We’re hiring for a Data Scientist to join a high-growth, data-driven business where forecasting directly shapes commercial and operational decisions. This is a hands-on role for someone who thrives in pace, ambiguity and impact.

You’ll be embedded with a small, high-performing team in the heart of the business, partnering with Sales, Marketing, Supply Chain and Finance to turn data into forecasts people actually rely on.

🔥 What you’ll be doing

  • Building and improving demand forecasting models across fast-moving product lines
  • Using time-series methods, regression and applied ML to predict real-world demand
  • Running scenario modelling around promotions, pricing and seasonality
  • Analysing customer behaviour and commercial drivers to improve forecast accuracy
  • Owning forecast performance — accuracy, bias, variance — and fixing what breaks
  • Translating complex analysis into clear, commercial insights for planning and S&OP
  • Working closely with Data & Platform Engineering to ship production-ready models

🧠 What we’re looking for

  • Educated to at least degree level in a relevant subject; Mathematics, Statistics, Machine Learning, Computer Science, Physics, Chemistry, Economics, Engineering etc.
  • 1–3 years’ experience as a Data Scientist in a D2C, ecommerce or consumer environment
  • Strong foundations in forecasting and time-series analysis
  • Hands-on with Python & SQL (Pandas, NumPy, Scikit-learn, Statsmodels)
  • Experience with Prophet, ARIMA and/or Gradient Boosting (XGBoost)
  • Comfortable working in fast-changing environments with imperfect data
  • Clear communicator — able to influence both technical and commercial stakeholders

💥 Why this role stands out

  • Real ownership of models used in live business decisions
  • Exposure to end-to-end forecasting, not just analysis in isolation
  • A culture that values speed, learning and practical impact
  • Exceptional leadership, inspiring peers
