Senior Vice President, AI Strategy Lead

This role is located in London.

About the Role

In this role, you’ll make an impact in the following ways:

  • Lead complex AI strategy workstreams and translate enterprise priorities into strategic themes, investment choices, operating-model recommendations, roadmaps, and executable plans.
  • Shape AI Hub’s strategic agenda across AI-native platforms, digital employees, workflow automation, knowledge management, process reimagination, governed AI capabilities, and continuous intelligence.
  • Identify, assess, and prioritize AI opportunities based on business value, client impact, operational efficiency, strategic alignment, technical feasibility, control readiness, adoption potential, and implementation complexity.
  • Develop business cases, value hypotheses, cost-benefit analyses, KPI frameworks, adoption measures, and benefit-realization plans for priority initiatives.
  • Define how AI capabilities can help platforms become more intelligent, context-aware, governed, reusable, and scalable across enterprise workflows.
  • Advance continuous-intelligence priorities by connecting trusted data, governed AI, human judgment, operational context, and enterprise controls to practical business outcomes.
  • Develop recommendations for AI operating models, prioritization mechanisms, portfolio governance, investment sequencing, adoption strategies, and cross-functional accountability.
  • Produce executive-ready strategy narratives, decision papers, presentations, portfolio updates, and recommendations that simplify complex AI topics without overstating maturity or expected benefits.
  • Partner with Product, Engineering, Data, Operations, Finance, Risk, Governance, Legal, Compliance, Audit, and business teams to align strategy with execution feasibility and enterprise standards.
  • Ensure strategic recommendations address data readiness, responsible AI, model and technology risk, cybersecurity, privacy, resiliency, human oversight, regulatory considerations, and change management.
  • Track emerging developments across GenAI, agentic workflows, enterprise AI platforms, automation, data products, model providers, and market practices to inform strategic choices.
  • Establish portfolio transparency by defining consistent measures for initiative status, strategic alignment, adoption, value, dependencies, control readiness, and delivery progress.
  • Lead senior-stakeholder discussions, frame decision options, clarify tradeoffs, and drive alignment on priorities and recommended actions.
  • Build durable internal AI strategy capability by creating reusable strategic frameworks, analysis methods, decision templates, and value-measurement approaches.
  • Operate independently as a senior individual contributor, bringing structured judgment and executive-quality output to high-priority and often ambiguous enterprise initiatives.

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.
