Head of AI Engineering

Location: London | Hybrid

Salary: £180,000 - £200,000

I'm working with an AI engineering consultancy delivering some of the most exciting enterprise AI programmes in the UK. They're looking for a Head of AI Engineering to build and lead their AI Engineering capability, partnering with enterprise customers to design, deploy and scale production AI systems.

This is a unique opportunity to join at a pivotal stage of growth. Rather than inheriting an established function, you'll build an AI Engineering organisation from the ground up, shape the company's technical direction and work on cutting-edge AI deployments for some of the world's largest organisations.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

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.
