Data Scientist

Data Scientist at IG&H

As a Data Scientist, you will play a crucial role in helping our clients derive valuable and new insights from large and complex datasets. You start by creating a deep understanding of the challenges our clients are facing. Together with your team, you’ll determine how to create the most business value for our clients. You will apply your knowledge and skills on data modeling in a practical setting, using methods ranging from basic data processing techniques to machine learning and large language models. Finally, you communicate and present results convincingly to create real and lasting impact. We believe that those who can combine analytical skills with business sense are most successful in creating this impact for our clients.

IG&H is active in three sectors: retail, financial services, and health, allowing you to gain experience on a variety of projects. You'll also work closely with IG&H consultants outside of the Data & Analytics team, which helps you learn beyond just data-related skills. This is especially beneficial if you're starting your career at IG&H, as it helps you understand what you really like doing and want to learn.

In addition to excellent employment conditions, working at IG&H is a great place to kick-start your career. We believe that a caring and fun working environment encourages you to step out of your comfort zone and learn. We offer continuous learning through the IG&H Academy, in which you’ll receive training to boost your data science, consulting, and people skills. You will also be assigned a mentor to provide guidance.

Above all, people are at the heart of what we do. This principle is reflected in the work we deliver for our clients and in our fun working culture. With an inspiring office in Utrecht, where we can connect, enjoy parties, team activities, and sports events (organized both for the entire IG&H organization and specifically for the Data & Analytics team), IG&H truly is a Great Place To Work.

“In addition to on-the-job learning, you learn everything you need to know about consultancy in the IG&H Academy. The program consists of various internal and external training courses specifically developed for trainees. Besides training sessions, the Academy often organizes trips and dinners. Through these, you quickly develop good relationships with co-workers at IG&H. I see many of them outside of work on a regular basis.” — Jasmijn Haverhals (Consultant Healthcare)

“The most beautiful thing about consulting is the diversity within the projects. IG&H offers not only different clients but also a variety in the types of assignments. One could be very strategic, outlining the direction of a company, while another could focus on implementation, working together with the client to deliver concrete results.” — Peter Hardy (Director)
