We work with complex, high-value datasets including weather, property, business, financial, claims, policy, medical, imagery, and geodemographic data.\nWithin Verisk Claims UK, we focus on helping insurers improve how claims are assessed, managed, and resolved. Our analytics and automation solutions help streamline claims processes, identify fraud, and support better outcomes for insurers and their customers.\nAbout the role\nWe’re looking for an early-career Data Scientist to join our International Analytics Team and help build the next generation of analytics products across claims and underwriting.\nThis is a role where you can do more than develop models in isolation. You’ll work with real-world insurance data, explore complex problems, test different approaches, and help take models from initial idea through to production.\nThe work is varied. Depending on the project, you could be developing supervised machine learning models, exploring clustering techniques, working with language models or network analysis, or contributing to AI solutions involving automated document processing, agentic decision-making workflows, and claims analysis and auditing.\nYou’ll have room to experiment, learn, and build your technical depth while working alongside experienced colleagues who value peer review, knowledge sharing, and high-quality analytical work.\nFor someone at the beginning of their data science career, this is an opportunity to develop broad, practical experience within a global organization while seeing the real-world impact of your work.\nThis position can be based in our offices in London or Norwich.\nWhy join Verisk Claims?\nThis role offers the combination of technical variety, meaningful data, and long-term career development that can be difficult to find in an early-career data science position.\nYou’ll be working on products that support real decisions across the insurance industry, with access to diverse datasets and opportunities to apply both established modeling techniques and newer areas of AI.\nYou’ll also have the scale and stability of Verisk behind you, alongside the opportunity to take genuine ownership of your work, develop your technical expertise, and understand how high-quality data science moves from experimentation into products used by the industry.\nIf you’re looking for a Data Scientist role where you can keep learning while building things that have a practical, measurable purpose, we’d like to hear from you.\n#LI-SD2 #LI-Hybrid\nSupport the development of new analytics products for insurance claims and underwriting.\nExplore complex datasets and turn them into meaningful insights, including data processing, cleaning, joining multiple data sources, feature engineering, analysis, and interpretation.\nBuild and compare predictive models using techniques such as GLMs, gradient boosting, Random Forests, and neural networks.\nIdentify the features and factors that provide meaningful predictive value and understand how they influence model performance.\nHelp create, test, and monitor agentic AI workflows that are traceable, repeatable, and suitable for real-world use.\nWork with stakeholders to understand requirements and translate business problems into practical analytical solutions.\nWrite clear, reusable, and well-documented code, using version control and creating functions and templates that can be applied efficiently to future projects.\nCommunicate analytical approaches, progress, findings, and recommendations clearly to both technical and non-technical colleagues.\nTake part in peer reviews, sharing ideas and learning from colleagues while contributing to consistently high-quality work.\nYou don’t need to arrive knowing everything about insurance. We’re looking for someone with strong analytical foundations, curiosity, and the motivation to develop.\nIdeally, you’ll bring:\nA bachelor's, master's, or PhD in mathematics, statistics, data science, computer science, another scientific discipline, or a related analytical field.\nSolid programming skills, ideally using Python and SQL.\nExperience working with data, including manipulation, cleaning, validation, and analysis.\nExposure to statistical modeling, machine learning, or other predictive techniques.\nStrong logical and problem-solving skills, with the ability to approach complex questions in a structured way.\nGood attention to detail and an interest in producing reliable, reproducible analytical work.\nClear written and verbal communication skills, including the ability to explain technical work to different audiences.\nA collaborative approach and willingness to learn from, and contribute to, the wider team.","description_format":"text","description_chars":4963,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":null,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":{"level":"bachelor","optional":true},"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[{"name":"United Kingdom","iso":"GB","kind":"country"}],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Data Providers & Datasets","InsurTech"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-10-31T15:55:43Z"}],"visa":[{"country":"GB","licensed_sponsor":true,"evidence":"Licensed UK visa sponsor (Senior or Specialist Worker, Skilled Worker)","filings_12m":null,"filings_prev_12m":null,"green_card_filings_12m":null,"median_offered_wage_usd":null,"route":"Global Business Mobility: Senior or Specialist Worker; Skilled Worker","cap_exempt":false,"checked_at":"2026-10-31T06:23:40+00:00","sources":["UK Home Office: register of licensed sponsors (workers)"],"filings_for_role_12m":0}],"liveness":{"score":90,"band":"hot","label":"Hiring now","p_open":1,"p_active":0.903,"p_room":1,"age_days":0,"expected_fill_days":6,"reasons":["conf:5","velocity","win:early","comp:brand"],"computed_at":"2026-11-01T06:10:25Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/verisk-data-scientist","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/verisk-data-scientist.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-11-01T15:01:35Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":23016,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-11-02T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":58882},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=58882"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fverisk-data-scientist"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fverisk-data-scientist"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fverisk-data-scientist"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/verisk-data-scientist\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fverisk-data-scientist"}],"agent":{"mcp":"https://alion.io/mcp/jobs","mcp_open":"https://alion.io/mcp/open","next":[{"tool":"get_job","arguments":{"id":3570238}},{"tool":"search_jobs","arguments":{"company":"verisk.com","detail":"compact"}},{"tool":"match_people","arguments":{"job_id":3570238},"note":"people open to offers who fit this vacancy"}],"note":"The same data through MCP tools: https://alion.io/mcp/open needs no sign-in (compact searches, postings, people); https://alion.io/mcp with an Alion account has everything.
