Data and technology are at the heart of our business strategy, propelling our market-leading products forward with the support of a large, dedicated Data Science team that delivers AI and machine learning solutions across all areas of our business, from Pricing to Marketing.

At Admiral, we're on the lookout for Data Scientists who have a wealth of experience across various sectors. Our aim is to fill roles in all our value streams—Pricing, Fraud, Claims, Customer Care, Marketing, People Services, and more. We value the fresh perspectives that seasoned professionals from diverse backgrounds can bring to our team, helping us to innovate and excel in every aspect of our business. If you're a Data Scientist with a rich tapestry of industry experience, we'd love to hear how you can contribute to our ever-expanding narrative of success.

Admiral is committed to leveraging Data & ML for the greater good, enhancing both customer and employee experiences. Our progressive ethos, core principles, and dedication to diversity and inclusion cultivate an idea-rich atmosphere where innovation thrives, and every voice is heard.

With millions of customer interactions daily, the opportunities to leverage data for transformation are endless. Our work spans a variety of approaches, dealing with both structured and unstructured data challenges. Through harnessing the power of Google Cloud and Vertex AI, we're at the forefront of insurance data innovation, developing and monitoring cutting-edge models that drive our business forward.

Embark on this journey with us and be part of a team where data isn't just numbers, but the key to unlocking potential and driving Admiral forward.

Please note: This influential role is open to both full-time and part-time candidates.

Your Role in Action:

  • Strategize and Innovate: Use your extensive experience to drive forward transformative business solutions with advanced statistical, machine learning, and AI techniques.
  • Explore and Pioneer: Stay at the forefront of the data science field, pioneering new methodologies and staying up to date with the latest industry breakthroughs.
  • Lead and Collaborate: Guide a dynamic team in refining model deployment processes and champion the role of data science within Admiral, motivating our data community to unlock the full potential of our data and amplify its impact across the business.
  • Influence and Partner: Work closely with business leaders to leverage the transformative power of Data Science, shaping future strategies and identifying key opportunities.
  • Mentor and Develop: Play a pivotal role in developing the growth of your team, sharing your wisdom to advance their skills, and being a pivotal role in creating a robust and impactful data science culture.
  • Make Your Mark: Drive significant value and innovation at every turn with data-driven insights.

Desired talents we hope you'll bring to the team:

  • With five years industry experience under your belt, you're not just playing with data; you're shaping it with machine learning to reveal opportunities that really make an impact.
  • Passionate about making a positive difference in the workplace and beyond, with a knack for understanding the big picture through data.
  • Demonstrated success in transforming processes beyond just model delivery, including innovative deployment strategies, streamlined modelling workflows, and impactful reporting and delivery enhancements.
  • A natural problem-solver who's always ready to roll up their sleeves and has a willingness to dive into experiments to find the best solutions.
  • A go-to person for data puzzles, comfortable with SQL and Python, and excited about exploring data to uncover the best paths forward.
  • Proven track record in project management, stakeholder engagement, and mentoring, showcasing your ability to lead and inspire teams to achieve remarkable results.
  • Great at talking data with anyone, from technical to non-technical audiences, and turning numbers into compelling stories that drive action.
