Omnis has been exclusively engaged by a globally recognised consumer brand to appoint an AI Innovation Lab Lead. This is a newly defined leadership role with responsibility for building an Artificial Intelligence Innovation Lab and shaping how AI transforms the organisation’s understanding of its customers.
Several high-potential POC's have already demonstrated early value. The opportunity now is to bring these initiatives together, determine where the business should invest and create a credible pathway from experimentation to enterprise-scale adoption.
The successful individual will lead a multidisciplinary team spanning agentic AI, data strategy, knowledge graphs and data infrastructure. They will work closely with senior executives, customer teams and technical leaders, translating complex technology into clear commercial choices and compelling cases for investment.

- Communicates complex ideas with simplicity and credibility, particularly with senior commercial and executive stakeholders
- Combines strategic thinking with a builder’s mentality and is comfortable working across product, technology, data and customer teams
- Understands how AI could reshape customer intelligence, targeting, personalisation and commerce over the coming years
