- Assess feasibility, value and impact of AI initiatives, contributing to business cases and supporting prioritisation across the IT and transformation portfolio.
- Analyse “as is” processes and design “to be” AI‑enabled processes that embed models, decision support and automation in a controlled, measurable way.
- Define business data requirements, support data discovery and profiling, and contribute to documentation that improves data transparency and reuse.
- Support solution design, proofs of concept, pilots and business‑facing testing (including UAT and validation of model outputs), capturing feedback to refine solutions.
- Act as liaison between business units and technical teams, managing stakeholder expectations and communicating progress, risks and outcomes to all levels, including senior management.
- Support project and change management activities, including planning, RAID management, adoption strategies, training materials and user training for AI‑enabled changes.
