Solvay is a multi-specialty chemical company committed to developing chemistry that addresses key societal challenges. We innovate and partner with customers in diverse global end markets. The Industrial function’s role is to help the Solvay Group in safety iniatitives and support the group’s transformation in operational excellence.
Solvay is a science company whose technologies bring benefits to many aspects of daily life. With more than 24,100 employees in 64 countries, Solvay bonds people, ideas and elements to reinvent progress. The Group seeks to create sustainable shared value for all, notably through its Solvay One Planet plan crafted around three pillars: protecting the climate, preserving resources and fostering a better life. The Group’s innovative solutions contribute to safer, cleaner, and more sustainable products found in homes, food and consumer goods, planes, cars, batteries, smart devices, health care applications, water and air purification systems. Founded in 1863, Solvay today ranks among the world’s top three companies for the vast majority of its activities and delivered net sales of €10.2 billion in 2019. Solvay is listed on Euronext Brussels (SOLB) and Paris and in the United States, where its shares (SOLVY) are traded through a Level I ADR program.

Solvay is taking a leap for digital transformation to accelerate Solvay G.R.O.W. strategy, and our sustainability roadmap, Solvay One Planet. Digital will allow Solvay to move differently from the past, transforming all aspects of the business, from channels and processes, to data and operating models, and ultimately the entire Group culture.

To make this Digital Transformation happen, Solvay has created in 2021 a dedicated Digital entity headed by a Chief Digital Officer and is reinforcing Data Science by recruiting Data Scientists across the globe to develop, maintain and improve advanced analytics models with data science techniques.

As a Data Scientist you will join a multidisciplinary team, you will drive the creation of actionable insight from our data lakes, develop new approaches/algorithms, to accelerate research & development (discover new formulations and materials), produce more efficiently (improve processes, planning and scheduling) and finally, accelerate sustainability.

You will be instrumental in delivering our digital and technology transformation. Large scale investment in Digital & Information Technology is expected over the next five years to accelerate our transformation and reduce complexity as well as running costs in line with our Purpose and G.R.O.W. strategy. Join the journey!

Job Overview and Responsibilities
