Job summary

Capgemini Invent in London is seeking a programme leader with deep data and AI expertise to drive enterprise-wide transformation for Financial Services clients. You will manage multi-workstream initiatives, shape strategy, and ensure value delivery without building the architecture yourself.

You will own the business case end to end, translate regulatory challenges into AI-enabled products, and lead human-centered design and enterprise-scale AI adoption.

Responsibilities

• Acting as a trusted advisor to executive and C-suite stakeholders, shaping AI strategy, investment cases and roadmaps, and being the person the client escalates to when the programme is under pressure
• Owning the business case end to end: defining the value, agreeing the measurement approach with the client’s finance and risk functions, and being accountable for the benefits actually landing
• Making the difficult trade-off calls - build versus buy, platform choice, delivery sequencing, and where technical debt is acceptable and where it is not
• You will lead the human-centred design of AI solutions around the needs of users and the way organisations operate.
• Translating business and regulatory problems into AI-enabled products, agentic workflows and intelligent decision platforms, with defined user needs, business outcomes and success metrics
• Designing operating models that integrate people, AI agents and business processes - including role redesign, human-in-the-loop controls, and the change strategy that makes adoption stick
• Partnering with business, product and engineering leaders to embed AI into customer journeys, colleague experience and operational decision-making at enterprise scale
• You will set the technical direction and hold the delivery to account, without designing it yourself.
• Directing the design of AI-ready data foundations, platforms and semantic layers that provide trusted business context and reliable access to enterprise information, and holding your architects to account on those decisions
• Assuring agentic architectures - interrogating how agents interact with enterprise systems and people, where they fail, how failure is detected, and what the cost curve looks like at scale
• Establishing the governance, security, responsible AI and operational practices required to run AI in production under regulatory scrutiny
• Business Development - Leading proposals, RFPs, bids, proposition development, client pitches and Thought leadership that positions the organization at the forefront of modern Data & AI consulting
• Internal contribution - Supporting practice development through offering development, recruitment, campaign development, internal think-tanks, whitepapers, operational excellence and capability building across Data, AI and Agentic AI
• Learning & Development - Continuously developing your own expertise in emerging data and AI technologies and consulting leadership through training, certifications and applied innovation, while fostering a culture of continuous learning across the practice
