Hybrid – London (2-3 days per week)

Want to build an AI Practice rather than inherit one? We're partnering with a global technology consultancy that's making a major investment in AI across the UK. Backed by an established international AI capability and a strong portfolio of enterprise clients, they're looking for an experienced AI Practice Lead to establish and grow their UK offering.

This isn't a role where you'll disappear into a large corporate machine. You'll be given the autonomy to shape the practice, influence strategy, win exciting AI engagements and build a team around you, all while remaining technically credible and working alongside some incredibly experienced AI specialists.

What you'll be doing:

  • Building and leading the UK AI Practice.
  • Working directly with enterprise clients to understand business challenges and identify AI opportunities.
  • Designing AI and Data solutions that solve real business problems.
  • Leading solution architecture and providing technical oversight across client engagements.
  • Collaborating with UK stakeholders and global delivery teams.
  • Helping shape new AI offerings, accelerators and go-to-market propositions.
  • Recruiting, mentoring and developing an AI consulting team as the practice grows.
  • Remaining close enough to delivery to provide technical leadership when required.

What we're looking for:

  • You'll likely come from a consultancy or professional services background and have progressed through Software Engineering or Solution Architecture into AI leadership.
  • You'll have experience across areas such as:
    • Enterprise AI.
    • Generative AI.
    • Large Language Models (LLMs).
    • Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG).
    • AI Solution Architecture.
    • Data & AI Platforms.
    • Cloud Technologies (Azure, AWS or GCP).
    • Consulting and Solution Design.
    • Technical Leadership.
  • Most importantly, you'll enjoy building things. Whether you've already built an AI practice before or you're ready to take that next step, we're looking for someone who wants to create something with genuine ownership and long-term impact.

Why join?

  • Build a brand-new UK AI Practice with full executive backing.
  • Work alongside an established global AI capability with proven delivery experience.
  • Influence the future direction of AI within a growing consultancy.
  • Enjoy genuine autonomy with minimal bureaucracy.
  • Recruit and build your own team.
  • Work across enterprise clients in Financial Services, Energy & Utilities and other regulated industries.
  • Competitive salary, bonus and benefits package.
  • Hybrid working with excellent career progression.

If you're an AI consulting leader who enjoys combining strategy, technical leadership and practice building, I'd love to tell you more. Apply today or send me a message for a confidential conversation.
