Create impact as a Specialist, Data Scientist

Your Role

We're looking for a big-picture thinker who can connect the dots between data, strategy, and people. As a Specialist Data Scientist in our Workforce Insights & Analytics team, you'll play a key role in shaping strategic workforce decisions through advanced analytics, machine learning, and data storytelling.

This is more than a technical role—you'll work closely with senior leaders and cross-functional teams to understand complex business challenges and co-create solutions that drive real impact. From predictive modelling and data mining to AI experimentation and organisational insight, your work will influence how we attract, retain, and empower our people.

You'll need strong stakeholder management skills, a collaborative mindset, and the ability to translate complex data into clear, actionable insights that guide decision-making at the highest levels. You'll also help uplift data capability across the enterprise and ensure ethical, responsible data use in everything you do.

If you're a strategic thinker who can see beyond the numbers and communicate with influence, we want to hear from you.

Apply now and help us transform how we understand and shape the future of work.
