University Information Services

Are you looking for a data science role that gives you the opportunity to be part of a large transformation and make your mark on an organisation rooted in history? The University of Cambridge is looking for a Data Scientist.

Who you'll be working with

We're part of the Product and Service Design Division along with experts in UX and service design, user research, business analysis and product management.

Re-platforming and content rationalisation

The University of Cambridge are undertaking a major redesign and re-platforming programme for our external websites (cam.ac.uk). A big part of this redesign is content rationalisation - the slimming down of our content so that it is ready for the future platform. This will involve working with teams across the university to build a user first approach to all our content.

Cambridge Web Agency (CWA)

CWA is a proposed, in-house agency which will deliver websites for the University of Cambridge. CWA will aim to meet the website needs of the institution whilst continually improving the web estate, with responsibility for the overall user experience. This next generation web agency will have accessibility, inclusion and sustainability at its core. The agency will define a new model for how Cambridge organises and structures our many websites and establish improved online publishing processes for content within those websites. A key deliverable of the agency is developing our future platform moving from a website built around business units to a website focused on user journeys.
