SVP, AI Transformation
Position Overview
BGBx is putting AI at the center of how the firm works - how we advise, how we create, how we deliver. This is the role that makes that real. We're looking for a leader who takes the AI agenda from ambition to landed outcome - owning the hardest initiatives end to end and getting them across the line.
Reporting to the EVP, AI Transformation, you will own BGBx's agenda for how the firm works with AI, end to end. You will decide what gets built, what gets adopted, and what gets cut. There will always be more ideas than capacity, and the person in this seat keeps the firm focused on the work that matters most.
This seat is for someone who thinks critically, sets the strategy, and does the work. You will map the workflow, build the business case, run the pilot, and report the result to the executive team and the board. When something isn't working, you call it early, learn from it, and go again.
