Our smart technology, data science and five-star customer service ensures business owners can act with the speed, confidence and control they need, exactly when it's needed. We've already cleared the way for 100,000 businesses with more than £4 billion in funding. Our passionate team is driven to help even more SMEs succeed, through access to better finance and other services that make running a business easier. Our ultimate mission is to support one million SMEs in their defining moments, creating lasting impact for the communities and economies they drive. The team iwoca's data scientists build probabilistic and statistical models that make lending decisions in real time, support forecasting and shape commercial strategy. Their work is deployed in production code and makes real-time lending decisions; it's more than exploratory analysis. Successfully leading iwoca's data science teams will require close collaboration with engineering, product, and commercial teams. The role As the Head of Data Science, you'll lead a group that focuses on rigorous, interpretable, and commercially useful modelling that is deployed, monitored, and maintained in production.

You'll shape how data science is applied at scale - how uncertainty is communicated, how analytical support is allocated, and how the function directs its effort to the highest-value work.

You can translate technical modelling for senior stakeholders, make assumptions explicit, and shape the decisions that follow. Production experience: You have managed the full lifecycle of models in production - deploying, monitoring, and retiring them. You are comfortable coordinating chains of model dependencies across different teams. Commercial acumen: You understand how modelling supports business decisions and know when to make trade-offs between depth, delivery time, and value. Team development: You have a track record of hiring and developing data scientists, and establishing consistent standards for planning, peer review, and methodology. Technical background: You have a background in probability, statistics, or a related quantitative field such as mathematics or physics and can evaluate analytical work for conceptual soundness.
