Our versatility, scale, technology, and expertise enable our 5000 people across Latin America, Europe, the Middle East, Asia Pacific, North America, and Africa to understand audiences and help the world's leading organisations succeed and grow.
Job Title: Senior Data Scientist
Location: London, Grays Inn Road

Kantar is the leader in providing audience and advertising measurement tools and intelligence. With a track record in audience research services across 50+ countries, Kantar is at the forefront of technological developments in audience measurement in the media industry, working with broadcasters and advertisers, media agencies and industry committees. The data science team provides research and technical expertise, support, oversight, and methodological development to our global operating services and sits within the Global Product team.
About the Project/Role
The key area of focus for the role is the development and improvement of mathematical and statistical models demonstrating different data sets both at panel level and at census level. These will include Kantar's internally owned data and data from Kantar's global partners such as global advertisers, national and international broadcasters, and global online social media and publishing platforms.
The major area of interest and development in the audience measurement space over the last few years involve the integration of multiple data sources, with a view of creating new and more complete hybrid datasets. These data sets combine TV and digital advertising platforms information and use the accuracy of panel-based data together with the breath and extension of census level information.
The goal is to have individual-level information across advertising platforms and media, providing all the usual features such as demographic reach and frequency estimates for highly granular and accurate viewing insight, without the limitations of panel sizes.
