We’re looking for a Senior Data Scientist to join our Ops Team
As a data scientist in our Operations Strategy team, you’ll help us use data-driven insights to make strategic improvements to the service our Operations teams provide to our customers.
The company
Fast, flexible finance empowers small businesses to manage their cash flow better and seize opportunities – making their business and the economy stronger as a whole. At iwoca, we do just that. We help businesses get the funds they need, when they need it, often within minutes. We’ve already made several billion in funding available to more than 100,000 businesses since we launched in 2012, and positioned ourselves as a leading Fintech in Europe.
Our mission is to finance one million businesses. We’ll get there by continuing to make our finance ever more relevant and accessible to more businesses by combining cutting-edge technology, data science, and a 5-star customer service.
The role
As a Data Scientist in our Operations Strategy team, the data-driven insights that you produce will help to guide the development of effective processes and improve efficiency across different areas of our UK and Germany Operations teams (currently c.180 people, across London, Leeds, and Frankfurt). All while maintaining an exceptional level of customer service.
You will play a crucial role working to set up and analyse tests, and to build statistical models which will allow us to better understand the value of the work carried out by our Operations teams.
You’ll build deep expertise in Operations processes across the full range of the customer journey, from signup through to collections. You’ll work very closely with Operations staff and business stakeholders to ensure that your work aligns closely with business goals and achieves valuable commercial outcomes. You will also work with other Data Scientists across the business, and be part of a peer group with whom you can share and deepen your technical expertise.
