With more than a decade of experience, we provide over 350 global customers with software, bespoke AI consultancy, and Fellows from our award‑winning Fellowship programme. Our expert team brings together leaders from across government, academia and global tech giants to solve the biggest challenges in applied AI.
Should you join us, you’ll have the chance to work with, and learn from, some of the brilliant minds who are bringing Frontier AI to the frontlines of the world.
About the Team
Our Government and Public Services business unit is committed to leveraging AI for the benefit of individual citizens and the public good. From our work informing strategic government decisions, to optimising our NHS, through to protecting children from harmful online content – we know that AI offers opportunities to drive improvements at every level of Government and we are proud to lead on some of the most impactful work happening in the sector.
Because of the nature of the work we do with our Government clients, you may need to be eligible for UK Security Clearance (SC) and willing to work on site with these customers from time to time.
About the Role
As a Senior Manager within our National Security team, you’ll lead mission‑critical work for discerning and highly AI‑literate customers in the UK Government and for international partners. This is a fast‑paced and demanding role which, in addition to mission‑area context, requires programme delivery mastery and an ability to think thoughtfully and creatively about the role for AI in keeping the UK and its citizens safe.
What You’ll Be Doing
* Overseeing, and providing thought leadership on, the delivery of multiple programmes of work for the National Security community, including strategy, R&D, and product builds.
* Forming strong, trusting relationships with Government customers, data scientists and wider networks of National Security practitioners.
* Developing and owning compelling proposals to grow our National Security portfolio.
* Advising clients on AI strategy and technical implementation, acting as a trusted partner and consultant.
* Mentoring and developing team members, aligning their responsibilities with the critically important National Security work for which we’re responsible.
* Supporting wider delivery work as a Senior Manager when needed to ensure maximum strategic flexibility and commercial impact.
Who We’re Looking For
* You bring proven experience in National Security safety, possibly from Government, academia, or roles in industry.
* You have a demonstrable interest and understanding of AI and ML concepts and can think creatively about their application for a range of National Security challenges.
* You understand the commercial consulting delivery model, allowing you to focus immediately on account growth and project oversight.
* You possess the flexibility to support broader Senior Manager work and embrace an entrepreneurial approach to a highly visible portfolio.
* You thrive in ambiguous settings and demonstrate a structured approach to problem‑solving and delivering high‑quality, high‑stakes projects.
