Your opportunity
Janus Henderson is undertaking a firm-wide AI Transformation program to embed AI capabilities across every business function. The AI Business Partner is a new role at the heart of this effort — you will be embedded directly within a business unit, working side-by-side with teams to identify high-value AI opportunities, build practical solutions, and drive measurable adoption. Over time, you will rotate across departments, carrying proven patterns and solutions with you and adapting them to new contexts.
This role is not a training role that sits on the sidelines, and it is not a pure technology role that builds in isolation. You will operate at the intersection of business process expertise, AI solution development, and change enablement — translating real workflow pain points into working AI solutions that people actually use.
You will be part of the Innovation team and work within the AI Academy framework, partnering closely with department AI champions (Air Traffic Controllers) and advanced users (Fighter Pilots) to scale AI capability from within the business. Your primary toolkit today is the Microsoft Copilot ecosystem, but the firm’s AI strategy is platform-agnostic — you will be expected to evaluate, learn, and deploy new tools as they emerge.
Key Responsibilities
-
Embedding within Business Units:
- Discover, scope, and prioritize AI use cases by working directly with teams to understand their workflows, pain points, and opportunities.
- Rotate to new departments, bringing replicable solutions with you.
-
AI Solution Development:
- Work with teams to agree on practical measures of success so impact is clear and visible for AI initiatives.
- Design and build intelligent solutions using Microsoft Copilot Studio, Power Automate, and the broader M365 ecosystem.
-
Research and Evaluation:
- Conduct ongoing research into emerging AI technologies to identify and evaluate their suitability for the firm’s evolving toolkit.
- Actively investigate alternative tools and approaches, building robust use cases through experimentation and analysis.
-
Value Case Development:
- Shape simple value cases for priority initiatives, linking ideas to expected business benefits.
- Track and report these outcomes to ensure alignment with organizational objectives and to enable data-driven decision-making.
-
Training and Development:
- Analyze current business capabilities and use cases to tailor coaching and upskilling for business users in prompt engineering, effective AI tool usage, and solution design.
- Collaborate with departmental AI champions to strategically identify, mentor, and develop “Fighter Pilots”—the next generation of AI leaders.
