A taste of what you’ll do 

As AI Team Lead, you will drive the design, delivery, and adoption of AI-powered solutions across the business — from RPA and process automation to LLM-based tooling and integrations — while leading, coaching, and mentoring a team of AI and Software Engineers. You'll combine hands-on technical leadership with strong judgment on where AI genuinely adds value, working in a fast-moving environment to deliver solutions with real business impact.

• Owning the team's technical strategy and roadmap for AI adoption, automation, and tooling, in partnership with business stakeholders.
• Leading, hiring, coaching, and mentoring a team of AI and Software Engineers, owning their performance, development, and career growth
• Translating business priorities into a resourced, prioritised delivery plan, and reporting on progress, risk, and capacity to leadership
• Owning key architectural and design decisions for AI-driven systems the team builds or adopts, ensuring scalability, security, and maintainability
• Evaluating AI tools, models, and vendors (e.g. LLM providers, RPA platforms) and owning build-vs-buy and cost/risk trade-offs for AI usage across engineering
• Setting and driving adoption of engineering best practices across the team — code quality, testing, review standards, and responsible use of AI tooling
• Acting as an escalation point for technical blockers, cross-team dependencies, and delivery risk
• Partnering with other Team Leads to share standards, avoid duplicated effort, and align on approach
• Staying current on emerging AI/LLM developments and judging what's genuinely worth adopting versus what's hype
• Any other task or responsibility that may be related and/or connected to the role of AI Team Lead
  

Who and what we are after? 
 

• Proven experience leading or managing a team of engineers, including hiring, coaching, and performance management
• 5+ years of experience in AI, machine learning, or automation, including at least 2 years in a leadership or team lead capacity

• Comfortable working with senior stakeholders and leadership, translating technical and AI concepts into terms non-technical audiences can act on
• Experience evaluating vendors, tools, or build-vs-buy decisions against cost, capability, and risk
• Working knowledge of modern software engineering practices (version control, code review, testing, CI/CD) sufficient to set and enforce standards
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills in English
