  • Apply data science and ML techniques for insight generation, summarisation, and anomaly detection
  • Partner with senior stakeholders to shape data-driven decision-making
  • Coach and upskill teams on best practices in AI-enabled analytics

What We’re Looking For

  • Minimum of 3 years of experience and a strong background in Data Science, Analytics, or Machine Learning

  • Deep understanding of data governance, quality, and metric definition
  • Strong analytical thinking and problem-solving skills
  • Ability to thrive in ambiguous, evolving environments and shape solutions from the ground up

Nice to have:

  • Experience with Microsoft Copilot, Azure OpenAI, or similar platforms
  • Knowledge of RAG (retrieval-augmented generation) or AI grounding techniques
  • Experience supporting executive-level stakeholders

Why join us?

  • Influence how senior leaders interact with data across the business
  • Help define standards, best practices, and innovation in a growing space
  • Work in a collaborative, forward-thinking environment focused on continuous improvement
