Project & Operations Lead - The Role

This hands-on, hybrid role blends project management, operational delivery, and strategic support. You'll work closely with the CEO to ensure the smooth execution of key priorities, enabling high-level focus while keeping day-to-day operations moving.

· Project Management Lead critical initiatives, track deliverables, and keep momentum strong. You’ll use tools like Gantt charts and PM methodologies to align the big picture with timely, accurate delivery. IT Platform integration will play a big part in the initial role.

· Data-Driven Execution Results-focused and analytical, you’ll turn ideas into action, ensuring execution is as sharp as the strategy behind it.

· Operational Support Confidently manage complex schedules, meetings, travel arrangements, and high-level communications with efficiency and professionalism.

· Strategic Support Provide well-researched insights, high-quality board reports, presentations, and data-led recommendations. You’ll support decision-making and contribute to strategic planning.

· Operations & Efficiency Streamline workflows, coordinate across stakeholders, and continuously look for ways to improve systems, processes, and delivery

Project & Operations Lead - Key Requirements

· Strong background in Financial Services

· Experience working with or alongside a Fund

· Proficient in financial and data tools, including Excel; exposure to financial modelling preferred

· Proven project management experience: formal PM qualifications are advantageous

· Must have the right to work in the UK

· Comfortable with hybrid working, including regular weekly travel

How to Find Hidden AI Jobs in the UK Using Professional Bodies like BCS, IET & the Turing Society

When it comes to job hunting in artificial intelligence (AI), most candidates head straight to traditional job boards, LinkedIn, or recruitment agencies. But what if there was a better way to find roles that aren’t advertised publicly? What if you could access hidden job leads, gain inside knowledge, or get referred by people already in the field? That’s where professional bodies and specialist AI communities come in. In this article, we’ll explore how UK-based organisations like BCS (The Chartered Institute for IT), IET (The Institution of Engineering and Technology), and the Turing Society can help you uncover AI job opportunities you won’t find elsewhere. We'll show you how to strategically use their directories, special-interest groups (SIGs), and CPD (Continuing Professional Development) events to elevate your career and expand your AI job search in ways most job seekers overlook.

How to Get a Better AI Job After a Lay-Off or Redundancy

But while redundancy brings immediate financial and emotional stress, it can also be a powerful catalyst for career growth. In the fast-evolving field of artificial intelligence, where new roles and specialisms emerge constantly, bouncing back stronger is not only possible—it’s likely. In this guide, we’ll walk you through a step-by-step action plan for turning redundancy into your next big opportunity. From managing the shock to targeting better AI jobs, updating your CV, and approaching recruiters the smart way, we’ll help you move from setback to comeback.

AI Jobs Salary Calculator 2025: Work Out Your Market Value in Seconds

Why your 2024 salary data is already outdated “Am I being paid what I’m worth?” It is the question that creeps in whenever you update your CV, see a former colleague announce a punchy pay rise on LinkedIn, or notice a recruiter slide into your inbox with a role that looks eerily similar to your current one—only advertised at £20k more. Artificial intelligence moves faster than any other hiring market. New frameworks are open‑sourced overnight, venture capital floods specific niches without warning, & entire job titles—Prompt Engineer, LLM Ops Specialist—appear in the time it takes most industries to schedule a meeting. In that environment, salary guides published only a year ago already look like historical curiosities. To give AI professionals an up‑to‑the‑minute benchmark, ArtificialIntelligenceJobs.co.uk has built a simple yet powerful salary‑calculation formula. By combining three variables—role, UK region, & seniority—you can estimate a realistic 2025 salary band in less than a minute. This article explains that formula, unpacks the latest trends driving pay, & offers concrete steps to boost your personal market value over the next 90 days.
