What the job involves

A six-week contract with Reed Professional Services, leading a Microsoft AI proof of concept for a public sector client. You test whether Copilot and other Microsoft AI tools can spot financial risks in the client's data, build and check the solution, then present findings and next steps to senior stakeholders.

The ad's duties fit the usual pattern for transformation roles. That usually means:

  • Map how work gets done today and where AI could change it.
  • Build business cases and a prioritised roadmap of AI initiatives.
  • Run programmes across teams, from pilot to rollout.
  • Manage the people side: communication, training and resistance to change.
  • Report benefits back to leadership.

Who it suits

Programme, change and transformation managers who can lead a business through new ways of working.
