Are you a problem-solver with a passion for data and innovation? We're looking for a Data Scientist to join a newly formed AI Centre of Excellence, working with over 40 years of data and 2 million clients to build impactful solutions that improve financial outcomes.

This is a remote-first role, with only one day per month required in our Bristol office.

Data Scientist: About the Role

• Customer-centric mindset with a passion for solving real-world problems.
• Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills.
• Experience in client-facing roles or FinTech is desirable but not essential.
• A collaborative team player who values continuous learning and development.
