Bts Consulting Jobs (NOW HIRING)

Applied AI Consultant: Build, Teach, Transform.

Location: London, New York, San Francisco

Travel: 25–50%, depending on client engagements

BTS is building a new kind of consulting capability: one where the consultant doesn’t just advise on AI - they build it, teach it, and help organizations get results. We’re looking for Applied AI Consultants who can sit with a client team, understand their real work, prototype an AI-powered solution in the room, and then help that team adopt it at scale.

This role bridges the gap between AI strategy (which too many firms offer) and AI engineering (which too many firms keep siloed). You’ll work across both BTS’s internal operations, where we are our own “Customer Zero” for AI adoption, and with some of the world’s largest enterprises to transform how their people work with AI every day.

This is not a “build a slide deck about AI” role. You’ll write code, run workshops, facilitate executive sessions, and ship production tools, sometimes all in the same week.

• Work directly with client teams and BTS colleagues to identify high-value AI use cases grounded in real workflows, not theoretical opportunity maps
• Rapidly prototype AI-powered solutions using LLM APIs (Claude, GPT, Gemini), agentic frameworks, and integration platforms (MCP, tool-use architectures, workflow automation)
• Take prototypes through to production-grade tools deployed inside enterprise environments, working alongside client IT and data teams
• Build and maintain internal BTS AI tools and workflows as part of our Customer Zero program, dogfooding everything we take to market
• Design and implement agentic systems, MCP server integrations, RAG pipelines, and custom tooling that connects AI models to enterprise data and systems

• Design and deliver hands-on AI training sessions for technical audiences (engineers, data scientists, IT leaders) and commercial audiences (C-suite, sales leaders, functional heads)
• Facilitate workshops that move from “understanding AI” to “building with AI” in a single session. Participants leave with working prototypes, not just frameworks
• Develop hands-on workshops and simulations for AI adoption programs, including prompt engineering, agentic workflows, responsible AI use, and AI-augmented decision-making
• Deliver sessions to senior partners and consultants at major professional services firms (SI partners, Big Four) on behalf of BTS and our AI lab partners
• Create compelling demonstrations and interactive experiences that make abstract AI concepts tangible for non-technical leaders

• Partner with client leadership to design AI adoption strategies that connect to business outcomes: revenue growth, cost transformation, workforce productivity, and capability building
• Conduct AI readiness diagnostics and workflow assessments to identify where AI can create the highest leverage
• Develop measurement frameworks to quantify the impact of AI adoption on P&L, productivity, and capability development
• Support business development by contributing to proposals, client pitches, and go-to-market strategy for BTS’s AI adoption services
• Stay at the frontier: evaluate emerging models, tools, and architectural patterns; contribute to BTS’s point of view on applied AI

This role lives at the intersection of building, teaching, and consulting. We know that's a rare combination, so we're not looking for someone who's already world-class at all three. We're looking for someone who's strong in at least one and has a genuine aptitude for the others.

In practice, that means we're interested in two profiles:

You've spent most of your career building things; AI-powered applications, agentic systems, workflow automations, production tools. You're fluent in Python, comfortable with LLM APIs, and you've shipped software that real people use. What makes you different from a pure engineer is that you actually enjoy being in the room with clients. You can translate what you've built into language a CFO understands. You're curious about business problems, not just technical ones. You might not have run a consulting engagement before, but you've led workshops, presented to stakeholders, or trained colleagues, and you enjoyed it!

You've spent most of your career in consulting, professional services, or client-facing technology roles. You understand how large enterprises buy, adopt, and resist change. You can design a workshop, facilitate a room of senior leaders, and write a compelling proposal. What makes you different from a pure consultant is that you're not afraid of a terminal. You've built prototypes, written code (even if imperfect), and you genuinely understand how AI systems work. Not just what they do, but how they're constructed. You don't need an engineering team to translate your ideas into something tangible.

Either way, you share these qualities:

• You move fast and learn faster. The AI landscape shifts weekly and you keep up because you're genuinely interested, not because someone told you to.
• You think in workflows, not features. You understand that AI adoption is a behavior change challenge, not just a technology deployment. You design for how people actually work.
• You're comfortable with ambiguity. This role is being built and you'll help define it. That excites you rather than unsettles you.
• You have strong opinions, loosely held. You'll advocate for an approach, but you'll change your mind when the evidence says you should.

BTS is not a technology consultancy that bolted on an AI practice. We are a 1,200-person global performance transformation firm that has spent 40 years helping the world’s leading companies turn strategy into results through their people. Our AI adoption work is built on this foundation: we know that technology only creates value when people change how they work.

• Work at the frontier. BTS partners directly with frontier AI labs. You’ll co-develop training materials and deliver sessions alongside AI lab teams.
• Work with extraordinary clients. Our clients include over 40 of the world’s 100 largest corporations across every major industry. You’ll work on problems that matter at genuine scale.
• Build what you sell. Our Customer Zero program means you’ll use AI to transform BTS’ own operations first, giving you battle-tested credibility with every client conversation.
• Freedom and responsibility. BTS is a flat organization where people lead projects and shape their own work from an early stage.

No two weeks look the same, but here’s a realistic snapshot:

• Monday: Facilitate a half-day AI adoption workshop for 30 senior leaders at a Fortune 500 energy company. Participants leave with three working prototypes for their highest-priority workflows.
• Tuesday–Wednesday: Build and deploy an MCP-integrated agentic tool for a client’s HR team that automates a three-hour weekly reporting process down to ten minutes.
• Thursday: Co-deliver a training session for 50 Big 4 Partners on how to position and sell AI adoption to their clients, featuring live demos for enterprise use cases.
• Friday: Internal Customer Zero sprint: improve BTS’s own Salesforce-to-Slack AI workflows, write a LinkedIn post on a pattern you’ve noticed across client engagements, and contribute to a proposal for a new client pursuit.

Competitive salary commensurate with experience and level, plus performance-based bonus. BTS offers a comprehensive benefits package including private healthcare, pension contributions, flexible working arrangements, and generous professional development investment. Specific details will be discussed during the recruitment process.

If this sounds like you, or like the person you’re becoming, we want to hear from you. Send your CV and a short note telling us about something you’ve built with AI that you’re proud of. We value what you’ve done more than where you went to school.

BTS is committed to equal opportunity employment and building a diverse, inclusive team. We encourage applications from all backgrounds and identities.

Annual Salary Range: $100,000 - $160,000

• This range is for Consultant, Senior Consultant, and Associate Director level roles. Starting salary is determined by experience and education/degree level.
