This is your chance to be part of a defining moment in shaping the future of our NSPCC Helplines. Here at the NSPCC, we've been protecting children for over 100 years, doing everything we can to prevent abuse and neglect and giving expert support to help children recover. We have recently begun a technology transformation programme for our NSPCC Helpline and Childline services that represents one of the most significant technology upgrades to these services in the history of the NSPCC. AI will be a vital enabler of these new systems, helping our front-line staff to be more efficient and effective, and to ultimately transform how we help even more children and young people feel listened to, supported, and kept safe. This is your chance to personally make a positive difference for thousands of children and young people every year. Alongside working with a wide variety of stakeholders, from service users to those on the frontline of our services, we're looking for people who want to be part of a dedicated team to support these programmes with the design, build, test and implementation of their new technology solutions We're currently recruiting for a full time, fixed term Data Scientist with a focus on Machine Learning.
