Join us on a short term contract or secondment to undertake the analysis for one local authority, based in London. You will be able to build on and further develop an existing code base from analysis at two local authorities so far, and you will be supported remotely by WWCSC’s Data Science Manager. The project will feed into an overall report, evaluating the technical feasibility of predictive models, which will be published in Spring 2020.
