We are currently tracking 15 live vacancies matching head-of and director-level Machine Learning jobs in the UK, advertised by 13 different employers. 6 of them were first seen in the last seven days. The most active employers in this slice are Guriosity, Mewarpolytex, Overstory and Youlend. Every role is detected on the employer's own careers page rather than reposted from another board, so what you see here is the vacancy as the employer wrote it.

Questions about these roles

How many head-of and director-level Machine Learning jobs in the UK are there right now?

We are tracking 15 live vacancies across 13 employers. The crawler revisits employer careers pages continuously and roles disappear from this page as soon as they come down, so the count reflects what is genuinely open today.

Can these roles be done remotely?

47% are advertised as fully remote and 33% as hybrid. The rest are on-site or do not say — where an employer is silent we leave it blank rather than guessing.

Are these contract or permanent roles?

Every role here that states a basis is permanent. Contract vacancies are listed separately.

Which employers are hiring?

The most active right now are Guriosity, Mewarpolytex, Overstory, Youlend and Orlaroseassociates. Every vacancy links straight to that employer's own careers page — we are an aggregator, not the hiring company, and there is no middleman between you and the application.

Can you work from home as a Machine Learning developer in the UK?

12 of the 15 live adverts here offer home working in some form — 7 fully remote and 5 hybrid. Fully remote means the advert states no office requirement; hybrid means it names a split.

Are there entry-level or graduate Machine Learning developer jobs in the UK?

Not right now — every live advert here signals mid-level experience or above. Graduate intakes are seasonal, so this is worth checking again rather than reading as a permanent state of the market.

What job titles are used for this role?

Employers on this page advertise it as Mewar Polytex Hiring Chief Technology Officer | Join Us, Director of Platform Engineering, Director of Data and AI, Head of Data - Orla Rose Associates and Head of Data Science - Optima Partners. Searching one wording and not another is the most common way people miss vacancies, which is why this page groups them.
