This role sits within our External Affairs team, reflecting the RCR’s commitment to engaging with and representing members and fellows on AI. You will build strong relationships with our data, policy, public affairs and media specialists, working together to strengthen the RCR’s member engagement and influencing work in this area.

• Manage AI workstreams in line with the College’s financial, contractual and HR delegation framework, from developing workstream plans to establishing and chairing advisory committees. 
• Identify and develop new AI projects as opportunities arise, building stakeholder buy-in and converting them into funded projects with tangible outcomes for the College. 
• Lead, motivate and support the AI team, fostering a productive and engaged working environment. 

What you’ll need 

• A keen interest in AI. 
• Strong programme management experience, particularly managing, evolving projects.
• Ability to work collaboratively and build and sustain effective working relationships with a diverse range of colleagues, partners and stakeholders at all levels. 
• Clear and analytical thinker.
• Ability to manage own time effectively and prioritise own work and work of others (officers) across a range of activities
• Experience leading a new area of work where flexibility, adaptability and opportunity spotting is key. 
• Self-starter, confident to initiate and progress work 

Our ambition is that the RCR leads the AI work in our specialities and your skills and ability to develop your AI knowledge, build relationships and lead projects of work could be what helps us achieve it. If this influential and exciting opportunity sounds like the role for you, we encourage you to find out more about it, the RCR and instructions on how to apply in the AI Manager candidate pack.
