At Capgemini, we are expanding our Data & AI team in Madrid and looking for someone with AI Architecture & Delivery experience and a passion for working closely with the business: understanding real problems, proposing solutions, and seeing them implemented.

The role demands a high level of autonomy; a strong appetite to drive change and overcome organizational complexity; and a high level of drive to build a business from its current strong foundations to a potential billion-scale business.

• Define standards and best practices for AI solution development.
• Collaborate with multidisciplinary teams to integrate AI into business processes.

• Lead, mentor and grow consultants and actively participate in the performance management process. Motivate high quality performance by personnel supervised through example and constructive feedback.
• Encourage and facilitate an atmosphere of continuous learning.
• Participate actively in the recruiting process for additional practice managers and consultants.
• Entrepreneurial desire and selflessness to give your time, energy, and passion to growing the firms culture and our people both inside and outside of office hours.
• Expected to hire and add to the existing team before the end of year one.

• Lead engagements by communicating and reporting project status to C-level executives and IT management, including budget, risks, issues, etc. Deliver results that clearly meet quality objectives and provide value to the client.
• Report project budget and finances both internally and for clients.
• Inspire and energize project teams under your direction. Mentor and manage teams of younger consultants to ensure quality of delivery and to keep projects on time and budget.
• Quickly respond to client requests for immediate issues while also being able to drive projects to completion. Ensure strong commitment to client service among all personnel on the team.
• Analyze each client's specific request and determine the underlying problem and recommend proper solutions, demonstrate by clients and market to have the technical, industry and functional knowledge necessary to provide the highest quality client service.
• Demonstrate strong history of follow-on work at clients and referrals of business from existing clients.
