THE PRINCIPAL AI CONSULTANT ROLE
You will act as both a technical leader and trusted advisor, helping clients navigate complex AI initiatives with confidence. This role requires someone who can simplify highly technical concepts, guide conversations with clarity, and create confidence amongst both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
You will lead workshops, shape AI strategies, influence delivery decisions, and ensure solutions are scalable, secure, and commercially valuable. Alongside hands-on engineering leadership, you will mentor teams, define best practices, and help grow the wider AI capability.
The successful candidate will be someone who naturally puts stakeholders at ease, commands credibility in the room, and thrives in environments where communication and relationship-building are just as important as technical expertise.
