Senior Data Scientist - Leicester or London 1 day a week
We are currently supporting a large insurance company on a Senior Data Science role to sit within their pricing team.

Some of the exciting work includes:
- Alternative pricing models
- Footprint modelling / Geospatial modelling
- Residual modelling to identify gaps between predicted vs. actual claim costs
- Working with large, messy insurance datasets across multiple product lines
- Tools & tech: Python, SQL, AzureML, XGBoost
- Opportunity to mentor within the team
