Responsibilities

  • 01Own End to End Delivery: Lead complex, large scale AI implementations at Fortune 500 and enterprise clients across the UK, managing parallel workstreams, owning the delivery timeline, and holding the team accountable to measurable outcomes on time and on budget
  • 02Enforce Operational Rigor: Ensure goals are clear and commitments are kept. A program doesn't ship until success is defined, ownership is clear, and risk is understood
  • 03Build Deep Client Trust: Establish and sustain trust with enterprise clients. Manage expectations with precision, align delivery to contracted outcomes, and lay the groundwork for lasting partnerships through demonstrated, measurable value
  • 04Drive Stakeholder Alignment: Navigate client executives, technical teams, and Distyl leadership with confidence. Provide clear, honest reporting on program status and surface risks before they become problems
  • 05Operate at Maximum Velocity: Keep programs moving in fast changing environments. Adapt quickly when priorities shift without losing momentum or dropping balls
  • 06Grow and Motivate Teams: Onboard and organize forward deployed engineers and AI strategists to design and build cutting edge AI solutions at the client site
  • 07Operate as an AI Native: Stay on top of the latest models and tools, reinvent your own workflows continuously, and push your team to do the same
  • 08Help Build the Playbook: As one of the first people on the ground, help translate Distyl's US delivery practices for the UK market and author the best practices that the next wave of UK hires will build on

Requirements

  • 01A Chaos Wrangler: You bring order to ambiguity without slowing things down. You identify what's unclear, make it clear, and keep the program moving
  • 02You Thrive Under Pressure: There is no single path to this role. The strongest candidates have come from places where the job was to own hard outcomes under pressure: Founders, Chiefs of Staff, COOs, Delivery Managers, and operators from high intensity deployment environments. What matters is the pattern: you have shipped, wrangled, and delivered at scale
  • 03An Enterprise Scale Executor: You have proven experience delivering large scale programs for enterprise clients, including programs with significant budgets ($10M+ equivalent)
  • 04Accountable: You hold yourself and your team to a high bar. Missed deadlines have explanations and plans
  • 05A Strong Communicator Across All Levels: You switch seamlessly between technical deep dives with engineers and high level strategic conversations with C-suite executives
  • 06A Raiser of the Bar: You've seen what excellence looks like at scale and use that benchmark to raise the operating cadence of every team you join. You don't just know what good looks like in theory, you've lived it, and you won't accept less
  • 07Comfortable Building From Scratch: You're energized by joining a market before the playbook, processes, or team are fully in place. You'd rather build the system than inherit one
  • 08AI Native: You actively use frontier AI tools in your daily work and have a track record of reinventing your own workflows as the technology evolves
  • 09Travel Ready and Customer Obsessed: You love being on site with customers and inside the problem. Expect significant travel across the UK and, at times, Europe
