This role is responsible for translating business priorities into a practical AI roadmap, building core AI/ML capabilities-including people, processes, and platforms-and demonstrating measurable value through prioritised use cases. You'll lead data scientists and ML/GenAI engineers, oversee solution delivery-whether in house or through partnerships with internal teams and external vendors-and ensure robust governance, safety, and compliance across the entire AI lifecycle. Key responsibilities Develop and maintain the AI/GenAI strategy and roadmap, aligned with business objectives and data strategy, including establishing foundational standards, playbooks, and best practices for model lifecycle, MLOps, evaluation, and reuse. Drive end to end AI/GenAI use case delivery, from problem framing and experimentation to deployment, scaling, and adoption, prioritising high value applications like fraud detection, customer service, and claims automation, with a focus on measurable business impact. Build, lead, and nurture a high performing AI team, fostering a culture of experimentation, responsible AI, and continuous learning; upskill stakeholders on AI literacy and responsible adoption. Partner with platform, engineering, and data teams to ensure secure, reliable, scalable AI infrastructure; implement CI/CD pipelines, automated testing, and monitoring, including GenAI specific capabilities and optimisation. Oversee vendor engagement, partnerships, and delivery models, leading vendor selection, technical due diligence, scope negotiation, knowledge transfer, and ensuring IP protection and flexibility to avoid vendor lock in. Embed responsible AI practices and governance, ensuring compliance with data privacy/security policies across jurisdictions, and implementing risk management, human in the loop controls, explainability, and auditability. Support AI tooling adoption (e.g., Secure GPT) and democratise AI usage across the organisation, enabling teams to leverage AI capabilities effectively and responsibly. Collaborate with business and analytics leaders to identify strategic use cases, define KPIs and ROI, track impact, and communicate results transparently, championing AI adoption across units and geographies. Align with data and analytics teams to ensure data readiness, product alignment, and integration of AI solutions into business processes, promoting a culture of responsible experimentation and continuous improvement.
