MBN are partnering with Forth Point, a new Industrial IoT startup who are looking to become the UK's largest Data & Analytics specialist focused on delivering against the promise of the 4th industrial revolution.

The promise of the industry 4.0 is that connectivity between devices has the potential to deliver huge gains in productivity, efficiency, and innovation but without harnessing the power of this interconnected world, that promise will never be realised.

Through Forth Point you will have the opportunity to deliver world class solutions to their customers through the use of Data Science, Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence applications.

We place a high value on the ability to communicate and translate complex analytical thinking into non-technical and commercially oriented concepts, and experience working on difficult projects and/or with demanding stakeholders is always appreciated.

This role will be responsible for driving high delivery standards and innovation in the company. Typically, this involves using data analytics and machine learning to conduct in-depth analysis which uncovers actionable insights and then reporting the findings back to stakeholders in a clear and relevant manner.

As the Data Science team grows, mentoring junior analysts/data scientists and leading project teams will also form part of day-to-day functions.
