Arcadis is the world's leading company delivering sustainable design, engineering, and consultancy solutions for natural and built assets.
We are more than 34,000 people, in over 30 countries, dedicated to improving quality of life. Everyone has an important role to play. With the power of many curious minds, together we can solve the world’s most complex challenges and deliver more impact together.
The Senior Data Scientist is responsible and accountable for leading (and overseeing) technical delivery of Arcadis digital and analytical solutions. The Senior Data Scientist will provide expertise through the implementation of these solutions for our customers, maximising the value of their data to solve their most pressing business problems.
The role sits within our Asset Management service area, in the Solutions Delivery group. This group serves large asset owning organisations across water, rail and road, government and other sectors. The solutions we provide are a combination of configured products and services, so whilst experience in these sectors is desirable, a curiosity to understand the “why” behind the problem and the ability to contextualize to the sector, are essential.
The Senior Data Scientist is responsible for the management and delivery of projects, be required to coach other Junior Data Scientists and Junior Analytics Consultants within the Solution Delivery group and contribute to business development and growth. They will play a key client-facing role throughout the project lifecycle, from requirements gathering and solution demonstrations through to results presentation, training, and supporting adoption of delivered solutions.
The Senior Data Scientist will also work closely with other Arcadis teams, including those within the global Solutions Delivery group and Arcadis Product and Technology teams, who are responsible for Arcadis digital products and tooling (such as EDA). Further to this, the Senior Data Scientist will interface with the wider business to provide guidance on future solutions and technical input for analytics solutions and products.
The ideal candidate will have a background in solution deployment and analytics consultancy, ideally within a physical asset owning company context. They will have good communication and organisational skills. They will have a strong understanding of advanced analytics techniques such as optimisation and general numerical modelling. A keen interest in the latest technologies is important, to help ensure that our work stays on the cutting edge.
More importantly than these technical skills, however, we are looking for someone to be an analytics leader, pushing forward the boundaries of what we do, and the standards expected of the wider analytics team. The successful candidate will need to be resilient and maintain a positive attitude when faced with challenges, be an excellent problem-solver, and be happy to be out of their comfort zone. They will need to have excellent communication skills, not just at a technical level, but also with more business-focused colleagues. They will not shy away from a challenge and will stand up and be counted. They will never be satisfied and always look to find the next improvement in what Arcadis does, and how we do it.
