Predictive analytics is central to how we decide the right messages to send to our customers that will help them with their financial needs at the moments that matter most. As an Associate Data Scientist at Nationwide Building Society, you'll be supporting the Customer, Brand and Engagement function by utilising advanced analytics to help us develop machine learning models that will provide a uniquely personalised experience for every customer.

With the proliferation of data, and the increased use of AI, automation and transformation is changing the way that marketing operates. In such a fast-paced environment, we are continuously looking to improve how we engage with our customers to provide value to them. We do this by being more data led and using new and innovative techniques.

Our hybrid ways of working mean we support flexible working wherever we can, with an inclusive approach to how we work. We recognise that some activities are more beneficial face-to-face, and our colleagues enjoy a mix of office based and home working arrangements, depending on the nature of the activity. There will be occasions when you'll need to attend your local office, or other UK sites. We will always strive to find a way that works for everyone.

Your success isn't based on how long you spend at your desk. You'll have contracted hours, but we're always happy to support flexible working wherever we can. That might mean working from home or different Nationwide offices or agreeing a working pattern to help you balance work and life. We will always strive to find a way that works for everyone.

As an Associate Data Scientist, you will have good knowledge of mathematical modelling and advanced analytics techniques to deliver solutions to business problems. In addition to having a passion for data science, you are resourceful and innovative in your approaches to solving problems. Your fresh ideas and innovative thinking will underpin the manner in which Nationwide tackles its most value-driving initiatives by leverage the latest approaches in advanced analytics techniques.

Why work for us?

Nationwide is the world's largest building society. With over 15 million customers, we have a relationship with almost a quarter of the UK's population. We've got the scale to compete with the big banks, but we're not a bank .

As a building society, we're owned by our members – that's our customers who have their current account, mortgage or savings with us. It means we can do things differently to deliver our Purpose – Banking – but fairer, more rewarding, and for the good of society.

When you work at Nationwide, you can experience that difference for yourself. You'll be part of a high-performing, purpose-driven organisation that offers rewarding career experiences and a highly competitive range of benefits to match. You'll also be joining us at an important time as we seek to reach more and more people in the UK. We want everyone in the UK to know that they don't have to bank with a bank. They can choose a modern mutual instead.
