Please read on to find out more about applying to join our Data Consultant Talent Pool.
auticon is an IT Consultancy and Social Enterprise whose mission is to address the inequalities in employment for neurodivergent adults. We aim to provide long-term career opportunities for autistic adults, who we employ as IT and Data Consultants. They then deliver high-quality services to our clients. If you’re not familiar with how IT Consultancies operate, read more on our blog.
We’re expanding our client network and anticipate having opportunities for Data Consultants based within commuting distance of central London to join our team.
As autism is the cornerstone of our social mission, we do ask applicants for these roles to provide evidence they’re in the process of obtaining an autism diagnosis, evidence they have a diagnosis, or alternative documentation to evidence autism.
You’ll join our team of Consultants and be a permanent employee of auticon, but most of your day-to-day work will be with one of our clients. You’ll add skills and expertise to the client’s team or project. Most of our clients are large multinational organisations who require expertise in areas such as data analysis, data visualisation, data engineering, cyber security, machine learning or AI. You get the chance to work on interesting assignments with our clients, whilst still having all the support of being an auticon employee. When you’re between projects, your employment with us continues. This means you receive your salary and all the ongoing benefits of being an auticon employee such as our valuable coaching provision, whilst we support you to further develop your skills. Visit our blog to learn more about the value of the coaching we provide.
We always want to hear from autistic people with strong tech and data skills who would like to join us. We invite people to apply to join our Data Consultant Talent Pool, which is slightly different from applying for a specific job. Our 4-stage process is designed to assess your suitability for the role of Data Consultant. By Stage 3, we’ll have gained a detailed understanding of your skills and interests that will allow us to create an auticon Consultant Profile for you. We can then begin the process of matching you to a first client project. Although we offer permanent contracts of employment with us, auticon, as your employer, we like to have a first client project lined up before we make you an offer. It’s important to us to be transparent that there is no set timeframe for how long this will take as it depends on client demand.
Essential Criteria – please apply if you have:
Desirable Criteria (please note that you don't need to meet all, or any, of the criteria listed below in order to apply)
Due to the differing needs of our clients, we can't guarantee an entirely remote role, therefore commuting into London around 2-3 times per week may be required. However, as we appreciate the impact that commuting and office environments can have on our consultants, we ensure reasonable adjustments are implemented and encourage flexible or hybrid working arrangements where possible.
Successful candidates must have ongoing permission to work in the UK. We particularly encourage applications from PhD students who can access the 3-year graduate visa route.
We’re committed to equality of opportunity in all areas of our work. You’ll be treated in a fair and equal manner regardless of your gender, marital status, race, religion, age, disability or sexual orientation.
We welcome applications from a diverse range of backgrounds, including people from diverse ethnic and cultural backgrounds, people with disabilities, people from diverse educational and socio-economic backgrounds and people who identify as LGBTQIA+.
Inclusion is at the heart of everything we do at auticon and that starts with our recruitment process, which has been designed to make you feel comfortable to be your authentic self. Find out more about our 4-stage recruitment process on our website: auticon - Careers UK.
As a Disability Confident Leader, we’re committed to providing applicants with any reasonable adjustments or accommodations needed. Therefore, please let us know if you require any reasonable adjustments as part of the recruitment process.
If you’re interested in joining the auticon team, please submit your application using the 'Apply to Position” button.
Please email careers @ auticon.co.uk if you have any questions about our opportunities.
There is no closing date as we process applications to the Talent Pool on a rolling basis. We may occasionally pause applications to the Talent Pool so that we can keep the number of people waiting after Stage 3 in line with expected client demand.
If you feel you don’t meet our current requirements, but you’re autistic and interested in this type of work, we invite you to register for our Careers Newsletter instead so we can stay in touch.
