• Experience operationalising AI or data services in enterprise environments.
• Strong understanding of security, privacy, monitoring, resilience, auditability and scalability.
• Experience working across multiple technical and business stakeholder groups.
• Able to work independently and deliver tangible outcomes within a short consulting engagement.

Highly Desirable

• Previous experience within banking, financial services, lending, credit underwriting or vendor finance .
