Job Description

Do you want to build a behavioural intelligence product using US population-scale data

Have you worked with survey + digital behavioural signals and want to turn that into a scalable data product?

Are you a bold, product-minded Behavioural Scientist ready for a genuine R&D mandate?

We’re partnering with a fast-growing behavioural healthcare analytics business (~40 people) with teams across Washington DC, London and Delhi. They sit at the intersection of behavioural science and data science, helping organisations understand what drives real-world healthcare behaviour (e.g. vaccine uptake, medication adherence, clinical trial participation) through large-scale datasets, modelling and insight products.

This is a builder culture where curiosity, creativity and strong scientific thinking are genuinely valued.

They’re hiring a Senior Behavioural Data Scientist to join a product/R&D team focused on the US market. You’ll work on high-impact research programmes translating behavioural datasets into usable benchmarks and recommendations for healthcare stakeholders.

Up to £95k base + 10%+ bonus.

Key responsibilities

* Lead R&D projects focused on drivers of US healthcare behaviour at scale
* Design and run behavioural measurement approaches (survey + digital signals)
* Build statistical and predictive models (regression, segmentation, behavioural modelling)
* Translate findings into benchmarks, insights and recommendations
* Partner with PM/DE to productise outputs into a robust data product
* Collaborate on evaluating and onboarding new data sources

Requirements

* PhD (minimum requirement)
* Strong academic background (Russell Group / top universities)
* 2+ years post-PhD industry experience
* Strong behavioural science grounding (intersection of behaviour + data)
* Experience with survey data and/or digital behaviour signals
* Ability to code in Python and/or R
* Proactive, creative, willing to take ownership (not risk-averse)

Nice-to-have

* Healthcare domain exposure
* Consumer behaviour analytics background (e.g. retail, marketplaces)
* Behavioural / political consultancy experience
* SQL

Tech stack

* Python and/or R
* Databricks
* SQL beneficial but not essential

Location / working model

* Remote-first model
* Central London (2 days a week)
* Current cadence may be 1x per month / 1x per quarter, but expectations will increase as the London office builds
* WeWork access provided when required (as many days in as preferred)
* Occasional travel may be required
