Applied data and statistical skills, along with the ability to communicate insights clearly to nontechnical audiences. Interview to be held Week commencing 21st September The Senior Data and Insight Scientist provide analytical leadership across Lloyd’s Register Foundation, ensuring that data and evidence are robust, meaningful, and usable for decision ‑ making and impact.
