Quartiles span £218/day to £550/day against a regional rate discount versus London. Figures summarise advertised pay on this hub to November 2026 and are market statistics, not a personal offer or guaranteed assignment rate.

Statutory Standards and Frequently Asked Questions
Newcastle does not create a special IR35 code for Data Scientist work. The client SDS should name the Newcastle workplace and delivery model. An inside finding on a Newcastle Data Scientist brief typically deducts tax at source, while outside IR35 Data Scientist work in Newcastle is billed by a PSC. Local pay sits on a regional rate discount versus London, so a higher Newcastle headline rate can still be inside. Commuting into Newcastle does not, by itself, prove substitution or lack of control. Read the Data Scientist Newcastle contract for workplace, hours, and equipment clauses.
