Data Science and Analytics Lead
Our client is a leading user-generated video marketplace, helping creators monetize their content while supplying video to publishers, broadcasters, brands, and digital platforms worldwide.
As demand for high-quality AI training data accelerates, they're uniquely positioned to turn their extensive video library into valuable datasets, metadata, and insights, and they need someone who can get more value out of the data they already hold.
This is a hands-on role. There is no analytics team to hand work off to, you are the data function. You'll take a business question, find the relevant data, run the analysis, build the model or the dashboard, and explain the answer to the people who need it.
We're looking for someone with strong, recent hands-on experience in analytics and data science who's ready to take greater ownership. If you've moved away from writing R and SQL yourself, or you'd rather advise than build, this isn't the right fit.
The opportunity
You'll own the day-to-day development and delivery of the data, analytics, and reporting capability across the business. Working with Commercial, Finance, Operations, Marketing, and Technology, you'll answer the questions that matter commercially, improve the quality and reliability of the data underneath them, and build the reporting and models that turn a growing video library into decisions people actually make. The stack is Snowflake, Matillion, Tableau, R, and Python, and you'll work across all of it.

Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
