Job Description
Senior Data Engineer - Shape the Future of Data in Financial Services

Salary: Up to £80,000 + Car Allowance + Bonus + Benefits
About the Role
Imagine joining a business right at the turning point of its data journey. A new Head of Data starts next week. A Data Architect is arriving soon after. The vision is clear: build a modern, scalable data platform that can handle messy, complex client data and turn it into trusted insights the business can rely on.
That's where you come in.
As their Senior Data Engineer, you won't just inherit a platform - you'll help shape it. The team has made great progress already, moving from traditional warehouses into Databricks and medallion architecture. But there are challenges to solve: transforming unstructured external data into business-ready models, shifting from batch to streaming pipelines, and embedding Unity Catalog governance so the right people can trust and use the right data.
You'll be the hands-on expert who makes this possible, while also mentoring two Data Engineers and setting the tone for how the team grows. With new data leadership joining, this is a genuine chance to influence the platform, the processes, and the people.
Why You'll Love It Here
A genuine opportunity to shape a platform from the ground up, not just maintain what's already there.
A role that blends hands-on engineering with mentoring and leadership.
A tech stack built around Databricks, Unity Catalog, Azure, SQL, and Python - with freedom to introduce modern approaches.
A package designed to reward you: up to £80k base + car allowance + bonus.
Hybrid working with offices across the Midlands & North West (commutable from Milton Keynes, Northampton, Banbury, Bedford, and Manchester).
This isn't just another Data Engineer role. It's a chance to step into a team at the exact moment where your ideas, skills, and leadership will shape the future.
