Our Data & AI Consulting team leverages technology to solve complex business problems for clients across financial services, government, healthcare, technology, media and telecoms. You will join a community of technology and digital leaders who scope and deliver large transformation programmes in complex, matrix environments.
Purpose‑led work you’ll be part of

You own solution direction from discovery and design through build, deployment and adoption, bridging business needs with technical implementation and translating emerging AI capabilities into practical, governed and scalable outcomes.
Role & Responsibilities
AI Solution Delivery
Lead multi‑workstream AI engagements end‑to‑end, from solution design through production deployment across use cases such as intelligent document extraction, automated variance analysis, compliance agents and generative AI workflows.
Architect and assure technical solutions across data platforms, integration patterns and deployment approaches, ensuring designs are secure, scalable, cost‑conscious and production‑grade.
Apply AI and advanced analytics to unstructured data challenges in remediation, compliance and large‑scale document review contexts where auditability, traceability and governance are non‑negotiable.
Define target‑state data and AI operating models—including governance, ownership, decision rights, Responsible AI controls, human‑in‑the‑loop design and data product management—to ensure solutions remain trusted and usable beyond go‑live.
Delivery Management
Engage with senior client leadership to define data strategy, assess control execution, identify reporting gaps and design future‑state data capabilities aligned to business strategy.
Translate complex technical capabilities into clear business outcomes, quantifying value in hours saved, manual effort eliminated, improved controls, enriched data quality and strengthened auditability.
Own programme governance and delivery excellence, including financial management, planning, RAID management, executive reporting/steer‑co packs, quality assurance and benefits tracking.
Practice & Commercial Growth
Expand existing client relationships by converting proven delivery into repeatable, scalable opportunities and building a pipeline from within active accounts.
Contribute to proposals, go‑to‑market and thought leadership by shaping points of view, accelerators, demos and case studies.
Codify reusable delivery assets, governance approaches and solution patterns drawn from live client work to accelerate future engagements and strengthen the practice.
Team Leadership & Culture
Build team capability and culture through coaching, performance management, on‑the‑job training and active contribution to hiring and onboarding.
