Job Specifications
Data & AI Senior Consultants
Location - We are flexible: onsite, hybrid or fully remote, depending on what works for you and the client, UK or Netherlands based.
What you will actually be doing
This is not a role where you build clever models that never get used. Your focus is on creating measurable value for clients using data science, machine learning and GenAI, in a consulting and advisory context.
You will own work from the very beginning, asking questions like "What value are we trying to create here?" and "Is this the right problem to solve?" through to "It is live, stakeholders are using it and we can see the impact in the numbers."
You will work fairly independently and you will also be someone that more junior team members look to for help and direction. A big part of the job is taking messy, ambiguous business and technical problems and turning them into clear, valuable solutions that make sense to the client.
You will do this in a client facing role. That means you will be in the room for key conversations, providing honest advice, managing expectations and helping clients make good decisions about where and how to use AI.
What your day to day might look like
Getting to the heart of the problem
Meeting with stakeholders who may not be clear on what they really need
Using discovery sessions, workshops and structured questioning to uncover the real business problem
Framing success in terms of value. For example higher revenue, lower cost, reduced risk, increased efficiency or better customer experience
Translating business goals into a clear roadmap of data and AI work that everyone can understand
Advising clients when AI is not the right solution and suggesting simpler or more cost effective alternatives
Consulting and advisory work
Acting as a trusted advisor to product owners, heads of department and executives
Helping clients prioritise use cases based on value, feasibility and risk
Communicating trade offs in a simple way. For example accuracy versus speed, innovation versus compliance, cost versus impact
Preparing and delivering client presentations, proposals and updates that tell a clear story
Supporting pre sales activities where needed, such as scoping work, estimating effort and defining outcomes
Managing client expectations, risks and dependencies so there are no surprises
Building things that actually work
Once the problem and value are clear, you will design and deliver production ready ML and GenAI solutions. That includes:
Designing and building data pipelines, batch or streaming, that support the desired outcomes
Working with engineers and architects so your work fits cleanly into existing systems
Making sure what you build is reliable in production and moves the needle on agreed metrics, not just offline benchmarks
Explaining design decisions to both technical and non technical stakeholders
GenAI work
You will work with GenAI in ways that are grounded in real use cases and business value:
Building RAG systems that improve search, content discovery or productivity rather than existing for their own sake
Implementing guardrails so models do not leak PII or generate harmful or off brand content
Defining and tracking the right metrics so you and the client can see whether a GenAI solution is useful and cost effective
Fine tuning and optimising models so they perform well for the use case and budget
Designing agentic workflows where they genuinely improve outcomes rather than add complexity
Helping clients understand what GenAI can and cannot do in practice
Keeping it running
You will set up the foundations that protect value over time:
Experiment tracking and model versioning so you know what works and can roll back safely
CI/CD pipelines for ML so improvements reach users quickly and reliably
Monitoring and alerting for models and data so you can catch issues before they damage trust or results
Communicating operational risks and mitigations to non technical stakeholders in plain language
Security, quality and compliance
You will help make sure:
Data is accurate, traceable and well managed so decisions are sound
Sensitive data is handled correctly, protecting users and the business
Regulatory and compliance requirements are met, avoiding costly mistakes
Clients understand the risk profile of AI solutions and the controls in place
Working with people
You will be a bridge between technical and non technical teams, inside our organisation and on the client side. That means:
Explaining complex ML and GenAI ideas in plain language, always tied to business outcomes
Working closely with product managers, engineers and business stakeholders to prioritise work that matters
Facilitating workshops, playback sessions and show and tells that build buy in and understanding
Coaching and supporting junior colleagues so the whole team can deliver more value
Representing the company professionally in client meetings and at industry events
