United Kingdom Data Scientist Postings Edge Up
Job postings for Data Scientists in the United Kingdom saw a slight increase last week.
By Jamal Pryce, Mogi Research · Oct 11, 2026
Data Scientist job postings in the United Kingdom saw a two percent rise last week. This change saw postings move from forty three to forty four. The United States saw a twenty five percent fall in postings.
Canada also saw a four percent rise in Data Scientist postings, moving from twenty seven to twenty eight. Poland saw a twenty percent fall in postings, with eight added job postings.
This rise in the United Kingdom may be due to increased demand for data analysis skills. It could also reflect a seasonal uptick in hiring activity. The fall in the United States may be related to companies consolidating teams or shifting focus to other roles.
