Predictive Modeller

SUMMARY:
Ready to turn raw data into real-world impact? If you're someone who loves digging into data, spotting patterns, and building models that actually do something, then this one's for you. We're working with a fast-growing, innovation-led consulting firm that's shaking up how financial services think about risk, value, and customer behaviour. And they’re looking for a sharp, curious Junior Data Scientist to join their Analytics & Insights team.

POSITION INFO:
What You’ll Be Doing:

• Think of this role as equal parts Analyst, model builder, and creative problem-solver
• Explore and clean big, messy datasets using Python, R, or SAS, and uncover insights no one else saw coming
• Build predictive models that forecast customer behaviour, credit risk, returns, and more
• Create visuals and dashboards with Power BI or Tableau to tell the story behind the numbers
• Work closely with Actuaries, finance experts, and consultants to solve real business problems
• Grow fast with on-the-job learning, mentorship, and hands-on exposure to high-impact projects

• A Master’s Degree in Data Science, Analytics, Statistics, or similar (PhD = bonus!)
• 0–2 years of practical experience in data science or ML projects
• Strong coding skills in Python or R
• Solid grasp of statistical modelling and ML algorithms
• Exposure to cloud tools (Azure and AWS) and big data tech (Hadoop and Spark) is a plus
• Some experience with Power BI or Tableau
• If you’ve worked in finance or consulting, even better – but not a dealbreaker
