What you’ll be doing

  • You’ll apply scientific rigour to the design, evaluation and improvement of AI solutions that support our operational simplification strategy.
  • Working across data, engineering and business teams, you’ll help shape and deliver proof of concepts using a blend of classical data science and modern generative and agentic AI methods, ensuring that solutions are grounded in evidence and aligned to real business needs.
  • You’ll translate complex AI outputs into clear, accessible insights for stakeholders, helping turn technical findings into practical value across the business.
  • You’ll play a key role in defining what good looks like for AI use cases, building evaluation frameworks, setting quality standards and improving confidence in how AI performs in real world scenarios.
  • You’ll also contribute to the evolution of our AI capability by analysing model behaviour, identifying performance boundaries and supporting the development of best practices that can be scaled across the organisation.
  • Alongside this, you’ll collaborate closely with colleagues to continuously improve how we work, contributing to an agile, innovative environment where experimentation and learning are encouraged.

We welcome everyone wholeheartedly.

We’ve got a truly diverse, genuinely inclusive work environment. We comfortably and confidently bring our whole selves to work, because we know we’ll be respected, valued and accepted whoever we are.
