SOC 2431 (80% match) is an eligible occupation, with a going rate of £50,200, and Evident is a licensed sponsor. That is our reading of the rules. Whether they issue a Certificate of Sponsorship is still their call.
This could also be SOC 2422 (Finance and investment analysts and advisers, Advising asset managers on AI investment and strategy resembles investment advisory work) or SOC 1258 (Directors in consultancy services, Senior title and growth strategy role could suggest consultancy director). We read the code off the advert, so it is our best guess, not the employer's.
About the role
Evident is an intelligence platform that benchmarks and tracks AI adoption across the financial services sector. Since the launch of our flagship product in January 2023, the Evident AI Index has rapidly become the global standard benchmark for AI maturity in banking.
The Evident AI Index forms the basis of our benchmarking products, which help companies to understand their ranking in relation to peers and to accelerate their AI strategy.
Why join us:
- We are index experts. Our Co-Founders Alexandra Mousavizadeh and Annabel Ayles have more than 30 years of experience building complex indices that drive positive change in the world.
- We are building a cutting edge research team that uses the latest techniques in machine learning to build faster and better data collection and analysis tools.
- We are backed by some of the world’s leading tech investors, including the backers of Revolut and the tech commentator Scott Galloway, and have built a network of advisors that includes the Global AI Lead at AWS, Mastercard’s President of Cyber and Intelligence, Ocado’s former CTO, the former CCO of the Alan Turing Institute, the Chair of the UK Government AI Council and the former Head of the UK Government Office for AI.
We are seeking high-calibre senior consultants with experience advising asset managers, ideally around AI adoption, AI maturity, transformation or enterprise-wide technology strategy.
Working with C-suite decision-makers at some of the world’s largest asset management and investment management organisations, you will work to elevate our private benchmarking products that help assess how effectively AI is being adopted, identify the capabilities required to advance, and shape group-wide strategies.
You will also provide evidence-based insight into where AI investment can deliver the greatest commercial and operational impact, while helping clients benchmark their progress and accelerate their journey towards greater AI maturity. This role will play an integral part in developing Evident’s asset management methodology, proposition and broader growth strategy.
Key Responsibilities
- Design and refine our AI maturity framework for asset management.
- Further develop our indicators, scoring methodologies, and maturity models across asset management lines of business and functions, and maintain/update to reflect emerging AI trends, new business models, and sector-specific developments and be able to communicate these to clients.
- Continuously evolve frameworks in line with emerging AI trends and industry practices.
- Act as the internal authority on AI maturity and impact across Asset Management, whilst also providing support in client meetings and external engagements.
- Execute methodological frameworks to produce reliable, high-quality benchmark outputs, including the review and evaluation of AI use cases submitted directly to Evident.
- Leverage asset management sector and AI subject matter expertise to deliver client sessions, including to C-suite stakeholders.
- Support wider buildout of Evident’s asset management offerings, including development of additional products and thought leadership.
- 10+ years in analytics, research, strategy, or quantitative roles.
- Demonstrable experience in either banking, insurance, or asset management.
- Experience building frameworks, indices, benchmarking systems, or measurement methodologies.
- Experience leading - and scaling - analytical or research teams.
- Strong understanding of enterprise AI use cases, deployment, and maturity assessment.
- Familiarity with data infrastructure and operating models supporting AI.
- Ability to assess real-world AI maturity versus theoretical capability.
- Familiarity with key business functions (risk, operations, distribution).
- Strong written and verbal communication, capable of explaining complex methodology to non-technical audiences.
- Experience engaging senior stakeholders.
