Opportunity:

Looking to break away from corporate red tape and actually ship real AI-powered tools that investment professionals use every day? We're hiring a Data & AI Product Owner to drive meaningful change at one of Europe’s most successful private markets investors. This role will be joining a leading charge in global brands. We’re looking for a couple of hires to focus on either Credit or Infrastructure investing.

This is not your standard product role. You'll be embedded directly into a high-performing investment team (e.g. Private Equity, Credit, Secondaries, Infrastructure), identifying real-world problems and shaping practical, data- and AI-driven solutions, fast.

You’ll have the autonomy to experiment with tools like Notion, Retool, Streamlit, n8n, and build lightweight MVPs yourself using Python, JavaScript, or low/no-code stacks. For complex builds, you’ll partner with engineers and data scientists, but the ideas, testing, prioritisation, and rollout? That’s you.

Who will this suit?

A senior-level IC. Not a hands-off product manager. Organisation are rewarding for technical ability coupled with business value, not leadership skills. Someone that has clearly demonstrated embedding actual, value driven AI solutions. Someone that understands FS, Fintech or Investment, Private Equity etc.

What you’ll be doing

  • Work hand-in-hand with investment officers to uncover friction points and AI opportunities
  • Prototype, source, or help build tools that improve deal execution, research, and decision-making
  • Manage your own product backlog, driven by business value, not vanity metrics
  • Drive adoption with sharp onboarding, training, and support
  • Influence cross-strategy builds and enterprise tools by representing your domain’s needs

What we’re looking for

  • Experience in product, innovation, or strategy roles - ideally at MBB, venture, or early-stage AI/product teams
  • Technical degree (CompSci, Engineering, Math, etc.) and confidence using AI tooling and APIs
  • Experience building or implementing tools using Notion, Vercel, Retool, Airtable, Streamlit, etc.
  • Strong grasp of the investment process (e.g., PE, Credit, Infra, or Secondaries)
  • Bias for action, a love of hacking together working prototypes, and a nose for commercial impact

Why this is different

  • Direct line of sight to business impact, you’ll see the results of your work in real time
  • Freedom to build, prototype and test ideas before involving engineering
  • Incredible access, you’ll work directly with some of the sharpest minds in private markets
  • Real AI, applied today, not future dreams; agents, copilots, and Q&A tools are already in play

How to Write an AI CV that Beats ATS (UK examples)

Writing an AI CV for the UK market is about clarity, credibility, and alignment. Recruiters spend seconds scanning the top third of your CV, while Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS) check for relevant skills & recent impact.

You’ll get a clean CV anatomy, a phrase bank for measurable bullets, GitHub & portfolio tips, and three copy-ready UK examples (junior, mid, research). Paste the structure, replace the details, and tailor to each job ad.

AI Recruitment Trends 2025 (UK): What Job Seekers Must Know About Today’s Hiring Process

Why AI Careers in the UK Are Becoming More Multidisciplinary

Artificial intelligence is no longer a single-discipline pursuit. In the UK, employers increasingly want talent that can code and communicate, model and manage risk, experiment and empathise. That shift is reshaping job descriptions, training pathways & career progression. AI is touching regulated sectors, sensitive user journeys & public services — so the work now sits at the crossroads of computer science, law, ethics, psychology, linguistics & design. This isn’t a buzzword-driven change. It’s happening because real systems are deployed in the wild where people have rights, needs, habits & constraints. As models move from lab demos to products that diagnose, advise, detect fraud, personalise education or generate media, teams must align performance with accountability, safety & usability. The UK’s maturing AI ecosystem — from startups to FTSE 100s, consultancies, the public sector & universities — is responding by hiring multidisciplinary teams who can anticipate social impact as confidently as they ship features. Below, we unpack the forces behind this change, spotlight five disciplines now fused with AI roles, show what it means for UK job-seekers & employers, and map practical steps to future-proof your CV.
