Dataworks is partnering with a major international consumer technology business that is investing heavily in how AI is used across its commercial organisation. They are looking for an AI Transformation Manager to take ownership of the AI agenda across a complex, high-volume business spanning digital products, customer experience, marketing and commercial operations.

This is not a pure strategy, governance or project-management role. The focus is on identifying where AI can genuinely improve the business, turning those opportunities into practical use cases, and then helping take them from idea → proof of concept → implementation → adoption.

The Role

You’ll sit within a small transformation team with broad exposure across the organisation, working with teams including Product & Technology, Marketing, Commercial, Data, Finance...

• You’ll become a central point of contact for AI initiatives across the commercial organisation, helping senior stakeholders understand what is possible, where to prioritise investment and how to turn AI capabilities into measurable business outcomes.
• You'll manage a lean team of hands-on data experts (Data Scientist, ML Engineer, Data Engineer).

Key Responsibilities

• Own the AI opportunity pipeline
  • Identify business problems and processes where AI can drive commercial value, improve efficiency or enhance customer experiences.
  • Work with stakeholders to structure and prioritise opportunities based on impact, feasibility and strategic importance.
• Take ideas into production
  • Lead AI initiatives from early exploration and proof of concept through to implementation and scaled adoption.
  • You’ll work closely with technical teams rather than simply handing over requirements and moving on.
• Bridge business and technology
  • Translate complex commercial problems into clear technical use cases, while equally being able to explain AI capabilities and limitations to non-technical stakeholders.
• Drive adoption
  • A major part of the role is ensuring AI is actually used.
  • You’ll help embed new tools and capabilities into everyday workflows, educate teams and improve how colleagues use AI in their day-to-day roles.
• Influence senior stakeholders
  • You’ll work across a large organisation with multiple teams, priorities and stakeholders, so the ability to create alignment and influence senior decision-makers is important.
