Data Specialist at Intellect Group | Ex PwC Consultant
Location: London (Hybrid)
Salary: £40,000 – £50,000 + Benefits (plus meaningful equity participation)
Start Date: ASAP
About the Opportunity:
We’re recruiting on behalf of an ambitious, high-growth organisation building an intelligence platform for private credit — turning large-scale, real-world financial behaviour into forward-looking insight for fintechs and investors.
This is a research-driven role focused on developing forecasting, correlation, and simulation capabilities that sit at the core of the product roadmap. You’ll work closely with senior data scientists to take research-grade ideas and translate them into scalable, production-ready modelling foundations.
What You’ll Be Doing:
- Designing and implementing forecasting models for credit performance, risk dynamics, and portfolio behaviour
- Developing correlation frameworks across cohorts, products, geographies, and time
- Building simulation engines to model capital run-off, stress scenarios, and structural outcomes
- Exploring regime shifts, early-warning signals, and non-linear dynamics in real-world credit data
- Working from first principles to create scalable, reusable modelling foundations (not one-off analysis)
- Collaborating to bring models into production systems that support real decision-making
What We’re Looking For:
- MSc or PhD (completed or near-completion) in a quantitative discipline (e.g. Statistics, Mathematics, Computer Science, Physics, Econometrics, Operations Research)
- Strong grounding in forecasting and time-dependent modelling, such as:
- Time-series analysis
- Probabilistic / Bayesian modelling
- Stochastic processes
- Simulation methods
- Strong programming ability in Python (or similar), with analytical rigour and clarity
- High intellectual curiosity and comfort working with ambiguous, open-ended problems
- Exposure to financial or credit datasets
- Research experience using real-world, noisy, or incomplete data
- Familiarity with simulation-based / scenario-driven modelling
- Interest in economic systems and behavioural dynamics
- Hybrid working in London
- Strong benefits package (details shared during process)
- Meaningful equity participation
- Opportunity to work on genuinely research-led problems with direct real-world application

Please apply with your most up-to-date CV and I’ll be in touch ASAP to arrange an initial call and share further details.
