Data & AI Senior Consultants Location - We are flexible: onsite, hybrid or fully remote, depending on what works for you and the client, UK or Netherlands based. What you will actually be doing This is not a role where you build clever models that never get used. Your focus is on creating measurable value for clients using data science, machine learning and GenAI, in a consulting and advisory context. You will own work from the very beginning, asking questions like "What value are we trying to create here?" and "Is this the right problem to solve?" through to "It is live, stakeholders are using it and we can see the impact in the numbers."
