Analyst, Artificial Intelligence Policy (Fixed Term Contract)

Site Name: London The Stanley Building

This is a 14 Month Fixed Term position.

At GSK, we are using Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) to develop new therapies and personalised drugs that drive better outcomes for patients. Because the datasets we use and algorithms we build at each step of the drug development journey have ethical and safety implications for our patients, GSK has a dedicated team working on the responsible use of AI in healthcare, establishing a robust responsible AI framework to guide our use of AIML. To help inform these efforts, GSK actively pursues applied ethics and safety research projects within the company, as well as sponsoring AI ethics and safety fellows at partner universities. GSK also proactively engages with governments, regulators, and other interested stakeholders, with the aim of informing and improving the overall public policy debate around the use of AI and data within healthcare.

The focus of the role will be to contribute dynamically across the workstreams of research, governance, and advocacy. Given that responsible AI is a complex and nascent field, we hire across disciplines, looking for dynamic and motivated team-mates rather than specific experience profiles. If this excites you and you want to be part of our team, we would love to chat. The team is built on the principles of ownership, accountability, continuous development, and collaboration. We hire for the long term, and we are motivated to make this a great place to work. Our leaders will be committed to your career and development from day one. We strongly encourage applications from people with diverse and underrepresented backgrounds and perspectives.

The role will be part of GSK’s AIML team located at the Stanley Building, which is in London’s thriving life sciences and technology cluster at King’s Cross. The position will report directly to the Senior Analyst, AI Policy. The role will also work alongside other members of this AIML team, which includes engineers, data scientists, physicists, biologists, and medical doctors, who are all working at the cutting edge of drug discovery. The successful candidate will join a fast-growing team on an initial 14-month contract.
