Contract Data Scientist - Forecasting, Deep Learning, Causal AI (Retail)
£600-700/day | 4 Months | Start ASAP | Inside IR35

RAPP is looking for a technically sharp, hands-on Data Scientist to join their agile consulting team supporting high-profile retail clients. This is a 4-month contract with the chance to work on impactful forecasting and causal AI projects within a fast-moving, agency-style environment.

What You'll Be Doing:

  • Designing and building custom forecasting models (XGBoost, deep learning, RL) for real-world retail scenarios

  • Applying causal and graph-based methods to understand and optimise customer behaviour

  • Working across the full stack of data science, from data wrangling to deployment

  • Operating within a modern MLOps setup (Docker, CI/CD, AWS)

  • Contributing to product-facing tooling (bonus if you've used JavaScript / Next.js / TypeScript)

What We're Looking For:

  • Strong practical knowledge of deep learning fundamentals - ideally with PyTorch

  • Experience building bespoke models for time series, tabular, image, or text data

  • Hands-on forecasting experience with retail or consumer datasets

  • Skilled in causal inference, graph AI, or reinforcement learning

  • Comfortable deploying models in production environments

  • Strong communicator, able to clearly explain technical choices and trade-offs

Nice to Have:

  • Exposure to JavaScript, TypeScript, or Next.js

  • Prior work in a startup, agency, or consultancy environment

This is a fast-paced project with immediate impact - if you're a data scientist who thrives on building models from scratch and solving tough commercial problems, this one's for you.
