We are recognised as a Strong Performer in the Gartner Peer Insights Voice of the Customer report for data and analytics, and hold Great Place to Work certification in multiple countries.

ABOUT THE ROLE

Our Data Science and AI team delivers machine learning solutions for global clients, with a particular focus on forecasting, customer analytics, and causality frameworks. Projects span next best offer and action modelling, propensity and churn modelling, demand and sales forecasting, and revenue growth management.

As a consultant in this team, you will work end-to-end on classification and forecasting use cases — from problem framing and data preparation through to model development, evaluation, and deployment support. You will collaborate closely with business stakeholders and data engineers, and be expected to translate business problems into well-defined machine learning goals. At senior consultant level, the role also involves pre-sales activity.

WHAT YOU'LL WORK ON

End-to-end modelling

Own classification and forecasting use cases from problem framing through data preparation, feature engineering, model training, and evaluation — covering demand forecasting, churn prediction, and similar applications.

Data exploration and quality

Perform exploratory data analysis on tabular and time-series data, identify quality issues, and engineer features that feed production models.

Model development and validation

Train, tune, and validate standard ML models — logistic regression, tree-based models, gradient boosting, simple neural networks, and classical time-series models — using appropriate evaluation metrics tied to business KPIs.

Stakeholder communication

Build clear visualisations and concise reports to present model results and insights to business stakeholders. Translate complex systems into plain language.

Production collaboration

Work with data engineers and AI engineers to bring models into production — batch scoring, APIs, model monitoring, and dashboards.

Documentation

Document data sources, modelling assumptions, and experiment results in a reproducible way across notebooks, reports, and wikis.

WHAT WE LOOK FOR

Classical data science and ML experience

Solid commercial experience with the full ML workflow — from EDA and feature engineering to model training, validation, and deployment handoff.

Customer analytics or forecasting background

Hands-on experience in customer analytics (propensity, churn, next best action) or advanced forecasting (demand, sales). Familiarity with causality frameworks is a plus.

Hyperparameter tuning and validation

Practical knowledge of model tuning approaches and validation frameworks, with a clear understanding of how metric choices connect to business outcomes.

Business requirements and technical planning

Experience gathering requirements from non-technical stakeholders, defining success metrics, assessing data feasibility, and aligning expectations across teams.

Python and SQL

Fluent in Python for data science and modelling work. Basic working knowledge of SQL for data access and exploration.

There is a strong knowledge-sharing culture, with internal communities, competency centres, and regular learning programmes built into how the team operates.
