AI Jobs in the United Kingdom (2026)

Only 27 percent of the UK's AI listings are tagged remote, which makes this one of the more office bound slices of the board. The hub holds roughly 1,000 live jobs as of September 2026, with about 90 added in the past week. London has its own city page, as do Cambridge, Oxford, Manchester, Edinburgh and Bristol, so this page is the wide view before you narrow to a city.

Machine learning engineer is the biggest category at about 280 listings, then data engineer at roughly 100, research scientist at about 60 and MLOps at around 30. The employers posting most often are Graphcore, Wayve, Anaplan, Nebius, Lila Sciences and Capco: a chip designer, a self driving company, an enterprise planning vendor, a cloud provider, a biology research company and a consultancy. Recent titles include research engineer for AI and ML systems and senior data engineer with Python and Spark.

Experience expectations skew toward the middle. Mid level roles number about 360, senior about 260, lead and manager about 200, and staff or principal around 150. Entry level openings are scarce, so graduates should check the entry level hub and the AI internships hub rather than filtering here. Just 2 percent of UK listings state a salary in USD, and sterling ranges appear only when the employer writes them into the description, so most listings do not state pay.

If you are weighing the UK against the rest of Europe, the Europe hub puts these listings next to Germany and France. To narrow within the UK, the category and level filters on the jobs page do most of the work, and the remote filter cuts the list to about a quarter. The senior AI jobs in London hub is the right start if you have five or more years of experience and want to stay in the capital.
