Position: Senior Supply Chain Data Scientist/ Senior Research Fellow

ROLE

WMG’s Supply Chain Research Group is seeking a Senior Supply Chain Data Scientist / Senior Research Fellow to lead advanced data science and AI activity within a strategic collaboration with a leading global automotive manufacturer. The role focuses on transforming rich, multi-tier supply chain mapping data into automated, decision-ready insights that enhance supply chain resilience, efficiency, and sustainability.

This is an opportunity-led role, aimed at unlocking value from existing supply chain data through AI/ML, network analytics, and digital supply chain twinning, rather than addressing a single predefined problem.

DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES
  • Lead the analysis of complex, multi-tier supply chain data to identify hidden dependencies, concentration risks, and long lead-time vulnerabilities. Design and deploy AI/ML and network-based models to generate early-warning risk signals and performance insights. Develop automated or near-real-time AI-driven insights to support proactive supply chain decision-making.
  • Lead the development of digital supply chain twins, representing suppliers, transport routes, lead times, and risk exposures. Use digital twins to simulate disruption scenarios, test mitigation strategies, and evaluate trade-offs between cost, service, risk, and CO₂ emissions.
  • AI/ML Application in Supply Chain including developing and deploying predictive models using machine learning algorithms to enhance accuracy in supply chain predictions.
  • Manage research aspects of the project including contributing to academic publications, technical reports and other presentations and dissemination methods.
  • Record and track the delivery of outputs during research & identify routes for achievement of targets.
  • Act as a technical lead and trusted advisor to industry partners. Provide mentorship to junior researchers and data scientists within WMG. Contribute to research funding proposals, high-impact industry reports, and thought leadership in AI-enabled supply chains.
