This is a rare opportunity to shape how one of the UK’s most significant cultural organisations works behind the scenes at a time when AI and automation are reshaping how our teams work. You’ll deliver practical, cross-organisational projects that utilise AI to make the NT more efficient, sustainable and resilient — helping teams spend more time on the work that supports great theatre. You will be responsible for delivering strategic projects that enhance operational efficiencies across business operations functions (including Finance, IT and People) as well as theatre operations (including Front of House, New Work and box office).

A key part of the role will be helping the NT explore AI responsibly, ensuring that new tools are used in ways that are practical, inclusive, secure and aligned with organisational policies.
