Unify is super proud to be representing an established Multi-Million pound market leader in Cardiff with a unique environment, blending the essence of a technology startup with the heritage and market knowledge of a 100 year-old business.

We are looking for an experienced data scientist to join their team on a permanent basis. The Data team currently has four members and they are still technically in the early stages of their Data journey and the industry as a whole isn't where it should be from a Data perspective so there is huge scope for someone to go in there and make a difference and introduce ideas that help build the data platform and shape the way they interpret data for future products. They have big plans for the data team and are looking to expand into the use of modern tools like Machine Learning, Artificial Intelligence and Natural language processing.

About the business.

On the one hand, they have many of the positives associated with a tech startup. They work in a fast-paced environment that encourages entrepreneurship and innovation, where we both empower and support our people. They’re also developing industry changing products using the latest technologies.

On the other hand, they don’t have the negatives associated with a tech startup. They’re self-funded, established in the market and they’re profitable. Furthermore, they have solid and achievable growth targets, along with a global client list that includes leading banks, financial institutions, private equity groups, brokers, and insurers.

They like to think of themselves as a family. They're friendly and sociable, and regularly get together for team and charity events. They also value their team. They make every effort to provide an environment where people enjoy coming to work and have the opportunity to thrive and as they have more than doubled their workforce in the last 18 months, there are plenty of opportunities for progression. Finally, they have a great view of Cardiff Bay and an excellent coffee machine.
