The Biggest Obstacles to AI Recruitment in Brighton

Intensifying competition for talent

With more start-ups, consultancies and in-house innovation teams exploring AI, demand for talent is growing fast. Experienced specialists in NLP, computer vision and deep learning are especially hard to find.

Hybrid skill sets in short supply

Brighton employers are increasingly looking for AI professionals who not only build models, but understand how to deploy them in commercial settings. The ideal candidate can move between data science, engineering and business teams with ease.

Disconnect between research and industry

While local universities produce cutting-edge AI research, many graduates and researchers remain in academic roles. Businesses often struggle to engage these professionals or convert academic expertise into applied business solutions.
