Data Scientist
London, 60,000 to 70,000 plus benefits, hybrid working, no sponsorship

This role offers the chance to step into a high‑impact data science position within a fast‑moving pricing environment where analytics directly influences commercial outcomes. You will work on complex, real‑world modelling problems with genuine ownership and visibility, rather than supporting work at the edges of the business.

The Company
They are a well‑established European insurance business operating in a highly data‑driven and technology‑led environment. With strong backing and ambitious growth plans in the UK, analytics plays a central role in how they compete and respond to market change. The culture is collaborative, fast paced and focused on building advanced analytical capability in‑house.

The Role
  • Work within a pricing and underwriting data science team, building and improving predictive models that influence commercial strategy.
  • Develop pricing and risk models that balance competitiveness with profitability.
  • Explore, evaluate and integrate new data sources to enhance model performance.
  • Use statistical thinking, logic and reasoning to simulate customer behaviour, including risk frequency and price sensitivity.
  • Communicate insights clearly and influence decision‑making across technical and non‑technical stakeholders.
  • Partner closely with machine learning engineers and other data professionals to deploy robust, scalable solutions.
Your Skills and Experience
  • Strong commercial experience in data science or statistical modelling within any industry.
  • Advanced Python skills for analysis and modelling.
  • A solid grounding in statistical or mathematical concepts and applied problem solving.
  • Confidence reasoning through complex problems and explaining your approach clearly.
  • Experience working with end‑to‑end modelling problems, from concept through to impact.
  • You must already have the right to work in the UK, as sponsorship is not available.
What They Offer
  • Salary ranging from 60,000 to 75,000 depending on experience.
  • Hybrid working with 1 to 2 days per week in the London office.
  • High levels of autonomy and ownership over meaningful projects.
  • Exposure to a wide range of analytical challenges in a fast‑growing business.
  • Clear opportunities for progression as the UK data function continues to scale.
