Lead Consultant (Consumer AI & Data Science)

London Based | £80k - £100k + Bonus + Benefits | Travel Required

If you enjoy solving complex commercial problems with AI, machine learning and advanced analytics, this is an opportunity to work on high-impact transformation programmes where your solutions are implemented, measured and scaled.

Joining a growing digital capability within a specialist consultancy, you'll work at the intersection of data science, AI and strategy, helping some of the largest consumer brands improve customer experiences, optimise operations and unlock measurable business value.

The Company

They are a well-established consultancy known for delivering tangible business outcomes across complex transformation programmes. Their digital and AI capability is growing rapidly, creating an opportunity for experienced consultants to have a significant influence on both client delivery and the future direction of the practice.

The business invests heavily in learning, development and progression, providing clear pathways for individuals who want to combine technical expertise with consulting and leadership responsibilities.

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.
