£65,000 + bonus + benefits | 2 days/week Manchester (moving to 3 days soon)

If you’re a pricing data scientist who wants to lean harder into ML (or you’re an ML engineer who enjoys commercial, real-world modelling), this is one of those roles where Python is central to everything.

You’ll join a high-performing ML team (4 ML engineers today) with genuine buy-in from the wider business and a strong pipeline of interesting work. The team is growing, and so is the opportunity to step up.

What you’ll be doing

• Building and improving pricing models using Python
• Working on GLMs and GBMs (this is not an LLM/neural-network role)
• Translating model outputs into decisions that move the needle commercially
• Collaborating closely with ML engineers, pricing, and stakeholders across the business
• Helping shape how the team scales as hiring continues

Why this role stands out

• Python-first environment with meaningful engineering/ML focus
• Huge internal support for ML and analytics
• A team that’s already established, but still early enough for you to have real influence
• Clear career progression as the function expands over the next 12–24+ months

What they’re looking for

• Strong Python and experience delivering models into production or production-like settings
• Background in pricing analytics / data science / ML engineering
• Comfortable with GLMs/GBMs and rigorous modelling practices
• A career-focused person who wants to grow with a scaling team

📍 Location: Manchester (Hybrid — 2 days/week in office, moving to 3 days/week soon)

💷 Package: up to £65,000 base + bonus + benefits
