About the Role

Intent HQ is transforming its service offering and operations to be AI Native — one where intelligence, automation, and human creativity power every interaction, decision, and experience. Part of this transformation is a new customer-facing product that leverages agentic AI technology to transform how our clients engage with data, insights, and decision-making.

We’re looking for an exceptional AI Transformation Lead to champion, coordinate and drive this evolution. The role will be responsible for delivering the organisational and client-facing change required to migrate our business and customer base onto this next-generation product.

Key Responsibilities

Manage and Scale AI-Driven Product Transformation

• Partner with Product, Engineering, Data, and Design to develop and mature intelligent products and platforms that enhance collaboration, automation, and insight.

• Engage all business functions and workstream leads in the transformation.
  
  

• Manage the programme structure, delivery, change lifecycle and outcomes — ensuring initiatives are coordinated, aligned, and measurable.
  
  

• Ensuring the programme and use cases deliver intendedvalue.
  
  

• Define, track, and communicate success metrics — adoption, productivity, engagement, and efficiency gains.
  
  

Enable AI-Native Ways of Working

• Manage the integration of AI capabilities into daily operations and decision-making.
  
  

• Translate the transformation strategy into actionable workstreams with clear milestones and accountability.
  
  

• Embed governance, ethics, and responsible AI practices into every layer of execution.
  
  

Drive Commercial and Operational Excellence

• Operate with a product mindset — ensuring every initiative connects innovation to tangible business outcomes.
  
  

• Balance vision with operational rigour, ensuring progress is structured, transparent, and measurable.
  
  

• Create alignment across teams, stakeholders, and leadership through clarity, communication, and delivery discipline.
  
  

Champion Change and Adoption

• Support capability-building efforts that help teams work confidently in an AI-enhanced environment.
  
  

• Foster a culture of experimentation, empowerment, and continuous improvement.
  
  

• Act as a connector — bringing people, tools, and ideas together to create momentum and shared ownership.
  

What We’re Looking For

A strategic operator who can think like a product manager and deliver like a programme manager.

You’ll have:

• Proven experience managing AI, data, or digital transformation.
  
  

• A track record of maturing or scaling complex products or platforms with measurable business impact.
  
  

• Hands-on understanding of AI technologies and automation, and how to turn them into practical solutions.
  
  

• Strong delivery and prioritisation skills — you bring structure to ambiguity and focus to complexity.
  
  

• Exceptional communication and stakeholder management abilities.
  
  

• Commercial awareness — you connect innovation to adoption, efficiency, and growth.
  
  

• Experience in complex environments (e.g. FMCG, Telco, Media) where customer experience and intelligence are critical.
  

Ideal Profile

You’re not a traditional programme manager — you’re a product-minded transformer.
You may describe yourself as:

• A systems thinker who can simplify complexity and connect strategy to delivery.
  
  

• A builder who shapes frameworks, not just follows them.
  
  

• A change enabler who moves people and processes with empathy, evidence, and energy.
  
  

• A commercial problem solver who measures success by outcomes, not activity.
  
  

You operate with curiosity, structure, and drive — and you’re excited by the opportunity to help design what an AI-native enterprise truly looks like.
