Every childhood is worth fighting for. This is our belief. It drives us. And it inspires our data team to drive the NSPCC to be a leading data-driven organisation at the forefront of preventing child abuse and neglect through the collective insights of our data. Join us as a Data Scientist, and help us develop our data capabilities to make a difference.
We have created a new data and analytics hub within the technology and data directorate, and a new Data Science Team within that. We are looking for a Data Scientist that will play a key role in safeguarding the future of the NSPCC by building models that will help generate the income that allows us to provide vital services to and advocate for children and young people.
The NSPCC has many avenues through which a supporter can donate (e.g. a single cash donation, NSPCC lottery etc.). In this role you will initially focus on building a suite of ‘propensity models' that will identify cross sell opportunities with the end goal of being able to identify a supporter's ‘next best action'. You will have a hands-on role in developing these models ensuring their performance can be properly evaluated and iteratively improved. You will also work closely with internal stakeholders and the Lead Data Scientist to identify the most impactful analytics projects, and to ensure any solutions properly address business needs.
You will have a strong understanding of fundamental data science techniques and strong programming experience. You will have the enthusiasm to develop your technical skills and understanding in a field that is constantly progressing and a desire to apply new techniques to solve problems.
Join us and you'll become part of a team that cares about the work they do and the people they work with. You'll discover opportunities to grow, along with challenges and a shared purpose that'll bring the best out in you. And you'll get to find your own way to make a difference that means more, and that impacts millions of young lives.
