About the Role

We are seeking an experienced AI Adoption Manager (Divisional) to play a critical role in shaping how AI drives efficiency and transformation across the business. This role will act as the bridge between business and technology, identifying and prioritizing high-impact opportunities and translating them into scalable AI solutions delivered in partnership with engineering teams and 3rd party vendors.

The ideal candidate will bring a blend of hands-on AI experience, digital transformation expertise, and strong business acumen, with the ability to move seamlessly from problem definition through to delivery and adoption. You will be comfortable moving rapidly from idea to pilot, and from pilot to scaled deployment, ensuring momentum is maintained and value is realized quickly.

A key focus of the role is ensuring every initiative delivers measurable value and ROI, embedding AI into core workflows in a way that is practical, scalable, and aligned with business objectives.

• Productivity gains
• Financial impact / ROI
• Track performance post-deployment and ensure benefits are realized and sustained.

• Identify change impacts and ensure solutions are embedded into daily workflows.

Experimentation & Continuous Improvement

• Maintain a pipeline of pilots and rapid experiments with new AI tools and approaches.
• Work with engineers and 3rd party vendors to test, validate, and scale solutions quickly.
• Stay up to date on emerging AI technologies and assess practical business applications.

• Identify when IS engagement and approvals are required and plan accordingly.
• Define data sensitivity, risk level, and compliance requirements at use-case stage.
• Own coordination of IS engagement from a business and delivery perspective.

AI Steering Group

• Success metrics and measurement approach
• Use-case definition and scope
• Risk, governance, and compliance considerations
• Consolidate inputs from engineering, IS, and business stakeholders into a clear, decision-ready pack.

• Risks and mitigations
• Readiness for pilot or scale
• Own tracking of decisions, actions, and follow-ups from the Steering Group.
• Ensure all initiatives meet approval after pilot and go-live.
