We are looking for curious, proactive individuals who are passionate about practical, real-world AI adoption.

- Demo-Led Engagement: Use hands-on demonstrations, workshops and practical examples to help stakeholders understand AI capabilities and limitations, building confidence through tangible proof points rather than theory.
- Research & Insight Development: Maintain awareness of developments across GenAI tools, AI-enabled services and public sector adoption trends, translating emerging capabilities into practical insights for clients and engagement teams.
- Client Delivery: Take ownership of high-quality deliverables including assessments, adoption roadmaps, operating model recommendations, governance frameworks, workshop outputs and transformation plans.
- Stakeholder Engagement: Build trusted relationships with clients, colleagues and third parties, supporting workshops, interviews and working sessions that help shape AI-enabled change.
- Best Practice Development: Contribute to the development and continuous improvement of Baringa's AI methodologies, playbooks, frameworks and reusable assets, helping strengthen our Government AI capability.
- Business Development Support: Contribute to proposals, thought leadership, credential development and client opportunities, helping identify where AI capabilities can create additional value for clients.
- Team Contribution: Actively participate in Baringa's internal AI initiatives, sharing knowledge and supporting capability development across the wider Government practice.
