We support clients across a range of industries and offer deep expertise in AI/ML, Cloud, Platform Engineering and Managed Solutions.  We are looking for an experienced Senior Manager to serve as an AI Architect — someone who can design the end-to-end architecture for enterprise AI platforms, lead consultancy engagements, and grow our AI & Solutions Engineering capability.  The AI Architect role owns the technical blueprint for AI-enabled solutions delivered in and around our clients’ environments, combining deep architectural specialism with the commercial and leadership skills to shape and grow our practice. This is a role for someone who thrives at the intersection of client advisory, AI platform architecture and hands-on delivery leadership — and who has a genuine passion for bringing AI systems to production at scale.  <h3>What you will be doing</h3> As a Senior Manager and AI Architect, you will own and lead the architecture of complex AI programmes end-to-end — from shaping the opportunity and winning the work, through solution design, delivery governance and team leadership. You will bring SME-level depth in enterprise AI architecture and apply it to create real, lasting value for our clients.  Although we do not expect you to be an expert in every technology listed below simultaneously, our team consists of people who can advise clients as well as bring deep technical knowledge when needed.
