Its more than 27,000 employees generated annual sales of CHF 9.3 billion in 2021.**About the role**Purpose of the Role**
The R&D/Data Science student internship has been running for a number of years and has become a critical component of our operations. Students split their time between leveraging data science techniques in order to improve our understanding of industrial raw materials and streamline our portfolio and processes, and working in the laboratory to test their predictions, improving old products, and even designing new ones.**What’s In it for You?**

**The Opportunity**:

- Actively pursue an understanding of data science techniques and how they can be utilised in chemical and industrial processes
- Spend one year working in a research environment, developing a strong knowledge of how different ingredients affect the properties of final products, and the interplay between them
- Ideate with a focus on how we can aid in the solution of complex problems using data science, machine learning or AI
- Learn about the newest technologies in cementitious chemistry, data science and AI
- Design testing protocols and scrupulously adhere to them, ensuring that your data collection is consistent and complete

**The Rewards**:
You will be rewarded with a competitive salary, and a sweep of great benefits. We pride ourselves on our total reward package:

- Holiday 25 days, plus bank holidays
- Hybrid Working
- Core Hours Working between 1000-1600
- A company pension contribution of up to 10%
- Private healthcare for you, with option to add family
- Group life cover at 6x your annual salary
- Global Income Protection (PHI)
- Enhanced maternity and paternity pay
- Staff discount platform & Cycle to Work scheme
- Dedicated Service Awards for reaching key milestones
- Selected discounted Sika products

**The Support**:
You will join the data science unit of Sika UK, which is nestled inside the greater R&D team. Your primary mentorship and supervisor will come from the members of the Data Science unit, but the R&D team will be constantly present, teaching you laboratory techniques and ensuring the social aspect of your hybrid working experience is not lost. The manager of R&D will be your senior line manager. Sika R&D operates under a no doors policy, meaning we are always available to talk.**The Skills**:
Joining the R&D / DS team will give you an insight into the different worlds of industrial research, operational logistics and data science. You will come away with a multitude of new skills, in areas including data manipulation; the fundamentals of machine learning; knowledge of cementitious chemistry; understanding of standards and safe manufacturing processes, not to mention significant experience in laboratory and digital work. Each intern has been a success story, boasting achievements from designing new product lines to finding new raw materials that could revolutionise national industry. A significant commitment to professional and personal development from day one.**The Future**:
The possession of deep knowledge in the topics of machine learning and data science is an invaluable skill in today's employment landscape. Moreover, despite their prevalence in logistics and manufacturing, such advanced techniques have yet to see sufficient permeation into industrial R&D, especially in the world of construction materials. The pairing of experience in both of these worlds sets you up excellently for a bright future.

**We Need Your Skills**

**What we need from you?**
- You must be pursuing an undergraduate degree in a field strongly linked to chemistry or process engineering with a Year in Industry option
- Mathematical fluency - a minimum of A-Level is preferred
- Excellence in the presentation of complex topics and data to non-expert audiences
- No prior coding skills are required, but they are appreciated
- Good knowledge of standard laboratory practices, safety and etiquette
