We're looking for a curious, and technically experienced Data Scientist to join our Data & BI team, reporting to the Data Science Manager. Sitting at the intersection of data, AI, and digital content, you will support key strategic goals across content discoverability, personalisation, and commercial impact.

You'll work on varied, high-impact projects such as exploring how AI systems interpret our content. By leveraging our SEO authority and AI partnerships, you'll boost referral traffic, grow licensing revenue, and promote our position as a trusted source in an evolving AI-driven ecosystem.

You may also work on our customer data platform, developing analytics and data products that power personalisation, smart recommendations, and actionable customer insights.
