<p>
You've probably heard of Autotrader, but do you know what we're all about?</p>
<p>
We're the most trusted, most visited automotive marketplace in the UK. A heritage brand and a tech innovator. We bring together vehicle buyers and sellers to give them real choices. Cars may be what we're best known for but we&rsquo;re also the place for pretty much everything else on wheels, from e-bikes to caravans.</p>
<p>
In the automotive world, change is a constant, that&rsquo;s why we take our job of untangling the complex car-buying journey very seriously.<br>
<br>
At our core, we&rsquo;re all about people. We go our own way while embracing diversity and celebrating our differences. We dedicate ourselves to the idea that we work better together.</p>
<p>
Autotrader is a beautiful, surprising and vibrant place to work. We might not be for everyone, but we could be perfect for you.</p>

<p>
We are seeking a Senior Data Scientist who will play a crucial role in driving Autotrader's transformation into a data science-driven organisation.</p>
<p>
As a Senior Data Scientist you will be responsible for the direction of Data Science at Autotrader.

<p>
As part of our broader analytical community, Data Scientists collaborate closely with Data Analysts. Together, they foster a culture of shared insights, continuous learning, and mutual support through regular showcases, feedback sessions, mentorship programs and skill-based workshops. As a Senior member of the community, you will play a key role in establishing our analytical standards and tools.</p>
<p>
We have invested heavily in a Data Platform that supports industry-leading Data Science. These are some technologies that our Data Scientists use (we don't expect applicants to have experience with all of these):<br>

<p>
