Interim AI Champion - Our client

Our client is an established and respected financial services organisation operating within a regulated environment. With a strong reputation for delivering high-quality services to customers, they are now looking to future‑proof the business by leveraging general AI tools to improve efficiency, insight and productivity.

Rather than building bespoke AI platforms or investing in expensive, department‑specific plug‑ins, the business is seeking a practical and commercially astute AI leader who can demonstrate how tools such as Microsoft Copilot and other general AI platforms can deliver immediate and sustainable value across the organisation.

Interim AI Champion - The role

You will take a holistic view of the entire organisation, identifying where AI can drive measurable efficiency gains and improved outcomes across Marketing, Finance, HR, Actuarial and Customer Service functions.

This is not a theoretical strategy role. The organisation requires someone with a demonstrable track record of implementing practical, quick‑win AI solutions within financial services or other regulated environments.

  • Develop a prioritised AI opportunity roadmap with clear ROI
  • Deliver measurable 'quick wins' within the first 90 days
  • Introduce AI‑enabled efficiencies across Marketing, Finance, HR, Actuarial and Customer Service
  • Develop responsible AI governance guidelines aligned to regulatory requirements
  • Upskill leadership and departmental teams in effective AI usage
  • Run workshops to demonstrate practical AI applications
  • Ensure all recommendations are scalable and future‑proof
Interim AI Champion - You
  • Proven track record of implementing AI‑driven efficiencies within financial services or regulated sectors
  • Strong understanding of general AI tools (e.g., Microsoft Copilot, ChatGPT Enterprise or equivalent)
  • Commercially astute with ability to link AI initiatives to measurable business outcomes
  • Experience operating at Executive or Board level
  • Strong stakeholder management and influencing skills
  • Ability to translate complex AI concepts into practical business applications
  • Understanding of governance, compliance and regulatory considerations
  • Strategic thinker with hands‑on delivery capability
Interim AI Champion - Benefits
  • Opportunity to shape AI strategy within a forward‑thinking financial services organisation
  • Direct exposure to Executive leadership
  • High‑impact role with measurable business transformation outcomes
  • Competitive day rate
  • Opportunity to influence long‑term digital and operational strategy
