Data Scientist
Berkshire · Hybrid · £70,000 + benefits
Financial Services
A good opportunity for a Data Scientist who wants to build things that actually get used. The business has spent years getting the data and engineering foundations right. The platform is now in place, and the Head of Data is looking for a Data Scientist to help with turning that into models that improve real business decisions.
Think customer behaviour, risk, and operational efficiency. Real problems, real data, and models that make it into production.
What you'll be doing
- Taking business problems from the initial question through to a deployed model
- Building and validating models in Python, then monitoring performance once they're live
- Using statistics, experimentation and A/B testing to properly test ideas
- Working closely with Data Engineering on pipelines, features and productionisation
- Going beyond dashboards when the problem needs something more sophisticated
- Explaining the output clearly to senior stakeholders and keeping the focus on the business answer
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.
