Data is the heart of our business, and we hold the largest collection of social science survey data in the UK.
As we look towards deeper integration with European and North American infrastructures, we are increasingly working with different datasets from other sectors like Energy and deploying cloud-based infrastructures and Privacy Enhancing Technologies. Our strategy in the next three to five years is to be a world-class repository for cross-disciplinary data that allows customers to find and analyse the highest quality data both securely and quickly.
We are looking for someone to work in a small, motivated, multi-disciplinary team who isn't afraid to challenge conventional wisdom and think differently about how we do things.
