Are you ready to step back into a rewarding career but concerned it won’t fit the life you now lead?
At Fifty One Degrees, we see your time away not as a gap, but as an experience that has enriched your perspective. We believe the skills you’ve honed—resilience, masterful negotiation (often with a toddler), and unparalleled time management—are invaluable in the world of AI and data.
We are actively seeking talented professionals who are returning to the workforce. This isn’t just a job; it’s a partnership. We’ve built a company where you don’t have to choose between professional ambition and personal commitment. Here, you can build transformative AI solutions for leading businesses while still being present for the moments that matter.
Fifty One Degrees is a London-based AI and data consultancy founded in 2023. We are a team of professionals dedicated to empowering mid-market businesses in sectors like financial services, insurance, retail, and energy. We deliver a wide range of solutions, from AI Strategy Development and Conversational AI Systems to Custom AI Models and Generative AI Adoption. Our approach is to blend cutting-edge technology with human expertise, ensuring our solutions are practical, impactful, and sustainable. We foster a collaborative and innovative culture focused on continuous learning, led by experts in fintech and risk analytics.
We have designed our culture around a simple, powerful idea: trust your people and focus on the results.
An Outcome-Driven Culture: We measure success by the incredible value we deliver to our clients, not by the minutes you spend at a desk. We are an agile, outcome-driven business that believes in delivering swift, measurable results. Your contribution is what matters.
Real Flexibility for Real Life: We get it. We have first-hand experience with the last-minute call from nursery about a mysterious vomit incident, the non-negotiable guitar recital, the logistical puzzle of summer holidays, and the whirlwind of childhood jabs and assemblies. Life is unpredictable, and your work should be able to accommodate it.
Our Promise to You: We promise to provide the environment and flexibility you need to manage your life’s demands. Your promise to us and our clients is your talent, your commitment, and the delivery of exceptional value. It’s a partnership built on mutual trust and respect.
A Collaborative Squad Structure: You are never on your own. At Fifty One Degrees, we operate in squads where everyone is in it together. You will manage your time and responsibilities with your squad, ensuring you collectively deliver fantastic outcomes for our clients while building a working approach that truly works for you.
Returning to a fast-moving field like AI can feel daunting. We’re here to support you. We provide ongoing guidance and mentorship directly from our co-founders, Nick Harding and Mark Somers, who are seasoned professionals in fintech, risk analytics, and AI innovation, as well as support from a team full of exceptional professionals.
We are committed to fostering a culture of growth and will provide you with the resources and hands-on project experience needed to rebuild your confidence and be at the forefront of technologies like large language models and cloud-native data pipelines.
We understand that a standard 9-to-5 doesn’t work for everyone. We are open to discussing a range of working arrangements, including part-time roles and flexible hours, to find a model that fits your life. Our goal is to bring your talent back into the industry in a way that is sustainable for you.
Please note that applicants must have the legal right to work in the UK at the time of application.
Our application process is designed to be a two-way conversation, where we get to know your skills and you get to know our values.
Cultural Conversation: A discussion about your journey, your ambitions, and how you see your values aligning with ours.
Technical Discussion: A collaborative session to explore your technical knowledge and problem-solving approach.
Meet the Founders: A final chat with Nick and Mark to discuss how you can be a part of our future.
If you are ready to bring your experience and ambition to a company that values who you are and the life you lead, we would love to hear from you. Visit our website at www.51d.co to learn more, or contact us directly at [email protected].
