Data Scientist – Statistisch Onderzoek

You have recently graduated from a science or quantitative degree programme, have a solid grounding in statistics, and already have some experience with R, SPSS and/or Python, and you are looking for an opportunity to take your first steps in the world of data. We have an exciting challenge on offer in which you can develop yourself within a public environment where, through research and data, you can make a difference on societal issues.

As a Data Scientist – Statistisch Onderzoek, you will work within a team that focuses on policy research and information across the various domains of a local government organisation. This team collects statistical information about the urban area and carries out a wide range of research: from quick opinion polls to in-depth data analyses and dashboards. You play a central role in this: you manage databases, develop dashboards, support large-scale surveys, and ensure that data is made accessible and understandable for colleagues and policymakers. You work with tools such as R, SPSS, Python and Tableau, and you get the space to fully develop your expertise in data, visualisation and statistics.
