AI Transformation Product Manager (bespoke AI Agent exp) \n \n\n • £600 – £650 per day\n, • Inside IR35\n, • 6 Month Initial Contract\n, • London – Hybrid\n\n \n Company and info for AI Transformation Product Manager (bespoke AI Agent exp): \n \n Our client is a globally established information and data services business with dedicated AI engineering teams already delivering in production. \n \n Their Commercial AI function spans AI product development, Agentic deployments and internal transformation programmes – and they're looking for an AI Transformation Product Manager, with strong Product & Workflow experience, to be the operational backbone of that team. \n \n This is not a traditional Transformation or Product Management role and it's important to be upfront about that. \n \n Our client has seen plenty of delivery professionals who bring strong process discipline, but lack the depth to operate credibly in a fast-moving AI engineering environment. \n \n What they need is someone who has genuinely delivered AI solutions – who understands how these systems are built, what makes them complex, and what good delivery looks like in that context. Programme rigour matters here, but it's table stakes, not the differentiator. \n \n The role for AI Transformation Product Manager (bespoke AI Agent exp): \n \n\n • Reporting directly to the Chief AI Officer, you'll own the delivery health of the AI team's entire portfolio – spanning AI product development, agentic deployments and workflow transformation programmes.\n, • You'll provide the planning cadence, dependency management, risk tracking and stakeholder reporting that keeps a high-performing AI engineering and product team executing with precision and visibility at all levels.\n, • Own the delivery planning process across the portfolio – sprint planning, roadmap tracking, milestone management and dependency mapping across engineering, product and transformation workstreams.\n, • Maintain a clear, real-time view of delivery health across all active workstreams – surfacing blockers, risks and schedule variances before they become critical.\n, • Drive delivery governance – establishing and maintaining the rituals, tooling and reporting cadences that give the team and its stakeholders shared visibility of progress.\n, • Translate technical delivery status into coherent progress narratives for the Chief AI Officer and executive stakeholders – enabling commercial and operational decisions.\n, • Work closely with the Director of AI Engineering and Principal AI Lead to align delivery.\n, • Identify and resolve delivery challenges – escalating where needed and facilitating resolutions that keep workstreams moving without imposing unnecessary process overhead.\n\n \n Experience required: \n \n\n • Proven experience delivering AI, ML or data-led product transformation/initiatives – with enough technical grounding to interrogate delivery status credibly and understand what engineers are actually building.\n, • Workflow processes and bespoke AI agent experience is a must.\n, • A background that goes beyond pure programme management – experience touching adjacent areas such as AI product development, software engineering delivery or agentic system deployment is a strong signal.\n, • Strong command of Agile, Scrum, Kanban or hybrid methodologies – applied pragmatically to context, not followed dogmatically.\n, • Senior and executive stakeholder management experience – comfortable translating complex technical progress into clear commercial narratives for C-suite audiences.\n, • Experience with delivery tooling such as Jira, Linear, Notion or equivalent, alongside programme-level planning and investment tracking.\n, • High clarity under ambiguity – you bring structure to evolving workstreams without waiting for perfect information, and you surface bad news early with proposed resolutions.\n\n

AI Transformation Lead (strong AI Product & Workflows exp): \n\n • £600 - £650 per day\n, • Inside IR35.\n, • 6 Month Initial Contract.\n, • London - Hybrid.\n\n Company and role for AI Delivery Lead: \n Our client is a globally established information and data services business with dedicated AI engineering teams already delivering in production. Their Commercial AI function spans AI product development, Agentic deployments and internal transformation programmes - and they're looking for an AI Delivery Lead, with strong Product & Workflow experience, to be the operational backbone of that team. \n This is not a traditional programme management role and it's important to be upfront about that. \n Our client has seen plenty of delivery professionals who bring strong process discipline, but lack the depth to operate credibly in a fast-moving AI engineering environment. \n What they need is someone who has genuinely delivered AI solutions - who understands how these systems are built, what makes them complex, and what good delivery looks like in that context. Programme rigour matters here, but it's table stakes, not the differentiator. \n The role: \n\n • Reporting directly to the Chief AI Officer, you'll own the delivery health of the AI team's entire portfolio - spanning AI product development, agentic deployments and workflow transformation programmes.\n, • You'll provide the planning cadence, dependency management, risk tracking and stakeholder reporting that keeps a high-performing AI engineering and product team executing with precision and visibility at all levels.\n, • Own the delivery planning process across the portfolio — sprint planning, roadmap tracking, milestone management and dependency mapping across engineering, product and transformation workstreams.\n, • Maintain a clear, real-time view of delivery health across all active workstreams — surfacing blockers, risks and schedule variances before they become critical.\n, • Drive delivery governance - establishing and maintaining the rituals, tooling and reporting cadences that give the team and its stakeholders shared visibility of progress.\n, • Translate technical delivery status into coherent progress narratives for the Chief AI Officer and executive stakeholders - enabling commercial and operational decisions.\n, • Work closely with the Director of AI Engineering and Principal AI Lead to align delivery sequencing with engineering capacity and commercial priorities.\n, • Identify and resolve delivery challenges - escalating where needed and facilitating resolutions that keep workstreams moving without imposing unnecessary process overhead.\n\n Experience required for AI Transformation Lead (strong AI Product & Workflows exp): \n\n • Proven experience delivering AI, ML or data led product programmes/initiatives - with enough technical grounding to interrogate delivery status credibly and understand what engineers are actually building.\n, • A background that goes beyond pure programme management - experience touching adjacent areas such as AI product development, software engineering delivery or agentic system deployment is a strong signal.\n, • Strong command of Agile, Scrum, Kanban or hybrid methodologies - applied pragmatically to context, not followed dogmatically.\n, • Senior and executive stakeholder management experience - comfortable translating complex technical progress into clear commercial narratives for C-suite audiences.\n, • Experience with delivery tooling such as Jira, Linear, Notion or equivalent, alongside programme-level planning and investment tracking.\n, • High clarity under ambiguity - you bring structure to evolving Workstreams without waiting for perfect information, and you surface bad news early with proposed resolutions attached.\n\n
