Can you distinguish genuine incremental growth from value simply shifting elsewhere? Do you use causal inference to explain why customer behaviour changes, rather than just predict what happens next? Would you like to help build a brand-new Data Science team focused on high-impact product and commercial strategy?
A global consumer technology business is building a new User Value Strategy team and hiring a Senior Data Scientist to shape its approach to experimentation, causal reasoning, and strategic decision-making.
This is a classical Data Science and econometrics role rather than ML Engineering, focused on understanding the true impact of product and commercial initiatives across a large consumer ecosystem.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
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.
