  • Contribute to the development of data-driven strategies for customer segmentation, personalized messaging, and targeted interventions.

Contribute to marketing analytics:

  • Analyse marketing campaign performance to identify key drivers of success and areas for optimisation.
  • Develop models to predict the effectiveness of marketing campaigns and optimise budget allocation.
  • Segment customers based on their responses to marketing campaigns to personalise messaging and offers.
  • Measure the ROI of marketing initiatives and provide data-driven recommendations for improvement.
  • Continuously research and evaluate new machine-learning techniques and tools.
  • Share knowledge and best practices with the data science team.

Skills & Experience

  • 5+ years experience as a Data Scientist and within a scaling organisation is a bonus.
  • Strong analytical and problem-solving skills: Proven ability to apply statistical and machine-learning methods to solve real-world business problems.
  • Proficiency in Python and relevant data science libraries: Experience with scikit-learn, pandas, NumPy, and other data manipulation and modeling tools.
