Senior Manager – AI & Data
Solution Shaping & Delivery Leadership | London (hybrid, UK client travel)
Turn client challenges into practical AI and data solutions, then lead their delivery from mobilisation through to measurable value.
The opportunity
Our UK AI & Data practice helps organisations across Government, Life Sciences, Consumer Products, Retail, Utilities and Telecommunications realise value from AI and data. As a Senior Manager, you will lead complex programmes end to end, shape credible solutions and proposals, and use delivery excellence to build trusted relationships and create follow-on opportunities.
Your key responsibilities
- Lead large, multi-workstream AI and data programmes from mobilisation through production and value realisation.
- Own delivery plans, governance, RAID, quality assurance, budgets, margin, forecasting and change control.
- Challenge designs and make informed trade-offs across quality, security, scalability, cost and responsible AI.
- Define and track business KPIs so delivery produces tangible outcomes, not only technology outputs.
- Shape solutions on Microsoft, Databricks or Snowflake, with credible estimates, plans and resourcing models.
- Lead proposals, orals and demonstrations, articulating value to business and technical audiences.
- Build and coach onshore and offshore teams, while identifying and converting extensions and adjacent opportunities.
Reasons to use Rodeo
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.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.

You will combine client focus, commercial judgement and inclusive leadership with the ability to connect business outcomes to robust AI and data delivery.
To qualify for the role you must have

- Experience shaping solutions and proposals with credible estimation, planning and commercial management.
