Because while individuals can do well, together we achieve something extraordinary. Role Purpose We are building a new R&D capability focused on developing data-driven and AI-enabled products for legal services and the wider business of law. The Junior Data Scientist will work within R&D alongside the Data Programme to build the foundational data capabilities that make priority firm data usable for R&D products, AI applications and wider firm use. You will help turn data into evidence, insight and stronger reusable data assets. This is an early-career role for someone with strong analytical fundamentals who enjoys exploring unfamiliar data, asking what else might be possible, and communicating useful findings clearly. You will support senior R&D, Data Programme and AI colleagues while taking meaningful ownership of exploratory data analysis, data profiling, analytical prototyping and the measurement of data and AI products. You will join a small, hands-on multidisciplinary team working collaboratively across discovery, prototyping, engineering, productionisation and continuous improvement. Key Responsibilities Profile and explore internal and external datasets that contribute to Data Programme assets, identifying data-quality issues, missingness, outliers, patterns, relationships and potential sources of bias or leakage. Use SQL and Python to prepare and validate analytical datasets in approved Fabric and Databricks workspaces, build reproducible analyses and create clear visualisations and summaries for technical and business audiences. Form and test hypotheses; identify where further data, enrichment, analysis or modelling could create additional value for an R&D product or business question. Support the development and evaluation of baseline statistical and machine-learning models, including classification, regression, clustering, ranking or time-series approaches where appropriate. Assist with text analysis, information extraction, embeddings, similarity analysis and the evaluation of AI-assisted features under the guidance of senior colleagues. Help prepare datasets, test cases and measurement frameworks for AI and data products, including human-review samples, error analysis and adoption metrics. Work with Data Programme engineers and data stewards to understand source data, document assumptions, define useful metrics and improve the quality and usability of data assets. Use Git, notebooks, tests and documentation to make analyses reproducible and ready for peer review rather than leaving work as one-off exploration. Use AI agents and assistants responsibly to speed up data exploration, coding and documentation, while checking every result and maintaining independent analytical judgement. Engage constructively with lawyers and business colleagues, translating questions into practical analysis and explaining conclusions in accessible language. Initial Focus Support the Data Programme in establishing foundational data capabilities through high-quality EDA, data profiling and rapid analytical investigations in agreed Fabric and Databricks workspaces. Build confidence in data quality, metadata, metrics, baselines and user-focused measurement for priority data and AI products. Surface informed ideas for what more can be done with available data, then help test those ideas with evidence. What Success Looks Like The Data Programme and R&D teams have a clearer, evidence-based view of their data before investing in models or product features. Exploratory work produces useful insights, credible hypotheses and well-documented next steps, not only charts or descriptive statistics. The data scientist develops into a reliable contributor to model development, product evaluation and scalable analytical practice. Essential Skills and Experience

Role Purpose We are building a new R&D capability focused on developing data-driven and AI-enabled products for legal services and the wider business of law. The Data Scientist & Engineer will work within R&D alongside the Data Programme to build the foundational data capabilities required for those products: trusted, reusable data assets, reliable pipelines, data quality, lakehouse models and analytical products. These capabilities will support R&D products, AI applications, client intelligence and firm-wide decision support. This is a hands-on hybrid data-engineering and applied-data-science role, with particular responsibility for building data products in Microsoft Fabric and Databricks. You will work with Data Programme colleagues to turn priority sources into governed, use-case-ready data assets using agreed patterns, without duplicating enterprise platform responsibilities. You will join a small, hands-on multidisciplinary team working collaboratively across discovery, prototyping, engineering, productionisation and continuous improvement. Key Responsibilities Partner with the Data Programme, data owners and system teams to assess, access and combine priority internal and external data sources, understanding quality, permissions and fitness for use. Design, build and operate reliable pipelines in Microsoft Fabric and Databricks to ingest, clean, standardise, enrich, version and publish structured, semi-structured and unstructured data as reusable data assets. Create scalable lakehouse data models, schemas, data contracts and reusable features for entities such as clients, organisations, people, matters, sectors, jurisdictions, opportunities and legal topics. Implement data-quality checks, lineage, provenance, observability, monitoring and change management within Fabric and Databricks workflows so data assets remain trusted over time. Conduct exploratory data analysis to surface patterns, gaps, anomalies and data-quality issues, and identify opportunities for analysis, modelling or product use. Develop, compare and validate appropriate statistical and machine-learning models for classification, ranking, recommendation, forecasting, anomaly detection, similarity or extraction problems. Use NLP, embeddings and LLM-assisted techniques responsibly for classification, entity resolution, information extraction, clustering and relationship discovery across document-heavy data. Publish curated datasets, features and analytical outputs through approved Fabric and Databricks data products, tables, APIs, search indexes, batch pipelines or product features. Maintain reproducible code, tests, model and data documentation, evaluation evidence and clear statements of limitations and appropriate use. Use AI agents and coding assistants responsibly to accelerate exploratory work, pipeline development, testing and documentation, while retaining ownership of analytical judgement and verification. Initial Focus Establish foundational, governed and permission-aware data assets in Microsoft Fabric and Databricks, including curated datasets, metadata, lakehouse data models and quality measures. Develop reusable pipelines in Microsoft Fabric and Databricks for entity resolution, enrichment, metadata, relationship mapping and data-quality monitoring. Run EDA and model development that increases the value of priority data assets for client intelligence, opportunity identification, pricing, matter analysis and other high-value use cases. What Success Looks Like The Data Programme and R&D teams can use documented, quality-controlled data assets in Fabric and Databricks without repeatedly cleaning and reconciling source data. Analytical work identifies useful signals and viable opportunities, with transparent baselines, validation and limitations. Successful models and features

A practical evaluation and test capability that lets the team compare prompts, models, tools and retrieval approaches before and after release. Grounded AI workflows that combine firm data, documents, market or regulatory information and user context into useful, attributable outputs. Interfaces that make AI output, confidence, evidence, controls and next actions clear to lawyers and business users. What Success Looks Like R&D products use AI workflows that are grounded in trusted context, observable in operation and understandable to users. AI quality is measured rather than assumed; evaluation results, traces and feedback lead to demonstrable improvements in usefulness, reliabili
