About the Project
Neurons Lab is an FSI-focused AI consultancy delivering agentic AI for banks, insurers, and asset/wealth managers across EU, UK, and APAC.
The EU AI Act is now partially in force: Article 50 transparency obligations (AI disclosure, machine-readable content marking) apply since August 2026, while high-risk obligations were deferred by the Digital Omnibus to December 2027 — creating a readiness-programme window for our clients rather than a panic-compliance one.
First assignment — international bank, EMEA division (London, from September 2026). A 6-session (1–1.5h each) in-person training programme for the bank's AI Governance Committee: cross-functional, non-technical reviewers (data privacy, legal, HR, cybersecurity, AI product, infosec) who assess AI use-case risk.
Curriculum: AI fundamentals → regulatory risks (EU AI Act, GDPR, Art 50 transparency) → cybersecurity risks → bias/fairness and performance → risk identification and controls, with hands-on exercises using the client's own risk assessment forms.
The programme also includes redesigning their risk assessment workflow into simplified, team-specific forms. Delivery follows a specialist-coaches model: you anchor the regulatory/governance and controls modules, paired with a technical trainer for fundamentals and security sessions.
Beyond the first assignment, the role operates across both Neurons Lab revenue motions: governance trainer inside AI Adoption Programs (executive workshops for boards and C-level at FSI firms), and compliance advisor to engineering delivery on high-risk use cases in our pipeline — credit scoring, underwriting, claims (Annex III categories). You will also help standardize our AI Act handover pack (self-assessment + system card, first produced for a German credit bureau client) into a default billable deliverable.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
This is a Talent Network engagement, not a full-time position. You work as a freelance contractor at ~0.2–0.4 FTE per project, with possible gaps between projects, and you're free to hold other commitments alongside Neurons Lab.
Objective
Deliver the first client governance training programme to a 90%+ satisfaction standard, then make AI governance a productized capability: standard workshop module in every AI Adoption Program, standard documentation pack on every AI build, and credible regulatory positioning that helps close high-risk FSI engineering deals.
KPI
- CSI ≥ 90% on client sessions and subsequent governance workshops
- Client risk-assessment workflow redesign accepted (simplified team-specific forms in use)
- AI Act documentation pack delivered as standard on 100% of in-scope AI builds
- Retrospective Art 50 review completed across active/recent client systems, with ≥ 2 resulting expansion conversations opened
Areas of Responsibility
- Deliver executive AI governance sessions (in-person London for the first assignment; 2–4h formats elsewhere) — AI Act obligations and timeline, UK divergence, sector-specific FSI requirements, Article 4 AI literacy duty
- Design and facilitate hands-on risk-identification exercises using the client's own risk assessment artifacts; redesign review workflows and forms where in scope
- Determine per-project role classification (provider vs. deployer vs. contractor/integrator) and risk categorization; define the resulting engineering requirements (disclosure, marking, logging, human oversight) with delivery teams
- Standardize and own the reusable governance asset library (self-assessment, system card, information annex); support Legal on contract template updates
- Track regulatory developments (implementing acts, harmonized standards, EBA/EIOPA/FCA guidance) and support pre-sales on governance-led opportunities

Skills
- Expert command of the EU AI Act including Digital Omnibus changes; working knowledge of GDPR, DORA, ISO/IEC 42001, NIST AI RMF, and UK regulator positions
- Ability to translate legal obligations into concrete review criteria, documentation, and engineering requirements for LLM/agentic systems
- Executive-grade facilitation — credible in front of a bank's governance committee and board; able to bridge terminology between model risk management and modern AI teams
- Fluent client-facing English; additional EU languages a plus
Knowledge
- FSI domain depth: model risk management in banking/insurance, and how credit scoring, underwriting, and claims map to Annex III high-risk categories
- How modern AI systems are built (LLMs, RAG, agents, guardrails, cloud deployment) — enough to hold credible working sessions; deep technical security demos are covered by a paired technical trainer
- Awareness of non-EU regimes (UK principles-based approach, APAC frameworks) for our international delivery footprint
Experience
- 5+ years in AI/tech governance, model risk, or regulatory compliance — within or for financial institutions
- Track record of designing and delivering executive training or advisory (not just conference talks)
- Experience working alongside legal teams on AI/tech regulation; legal qualification not required
- Independent contractor / consulting experience; comfortable with senior positioning in front of clients
