About the Role

As a Technical Manager in our AI consultancy team, you will turn AI ideas into working solutions. You will work closely with clients, listening to their problems and agreeing what to build, but you will spend much of your time hands-on: building proofs of concept, writing code and guiding the next steps towards a live service. You will also coordinate technical delivery teams from partner companies and other Grant Thornton firms, either embedded in teams or in some cases, leading them. We expect you to use Claude Code, Claude and other AI tools every day to build faster and to a higher standard, and to check carefully everything they produce.

Responsibilities

  • Building and running proofs of concept
  • Build working proofs of concept quickly, writing code yourself and using AI coding tools such as Claude Code
  • Agree with clients what a proof of concept must show and how success will be judged
  • Test results honestly, and explain clearly what worked, what did not and what it means
  • Demonstrate your work and present findings to client teams in plain English
  • Have a clear view of the path to live: the steps from a working trial to a secure, supported service that people use every day
  • Build, or guide the building of, solutions to a standard that can grow beyond the trial
  • Apply DevSecOps in your own work and in the work you review
  • Keep cloud running costs visible and under control, following FinOps practice
  • Coordinate technical delivery teams from partner companies and other Grant Thornton firms, agreeing clear roles, standards and ways of working
  • Review their code, designs and results, and give clear, constructive feedback
  • Work as an equal partner or in some cases, lead colleagues in every location and organisation
  • Keep work on track for scope, timing, quality and budget, and raise risks early
  • Run interviews and workshops with client teams to understand their problems, their data and how ready they are for AI
  • Turn what you hear into clear technical options and sensible recommendations
  • Explain technical choices simply to non-technical audiences
  • Support senior colleagues with proposals, pitches and follow-up conversations
  • Use Claude Code, Claude, Claude Design, Claude Cowork and other tools to write code, tests, documents, diagrams and client materials
  • Check all AI-assisted work carefully for accuracy, security and quality before it reaches a client
  • Share good practice, prompts and reusable code with the wider team
  • Make sure solutions follow responsible AI principles, data protection law and sensible checks on how AI models are used and monitored
  • Use only firm-approved tools when working with client information, and follow firm and client rules on how data is handled
  • Keep code, client data and access details secure at all times

Requirements

  • Degree in a technical subject, or equivalent professional experience
  • Experience in building technology or AI solutions
  • Proven experience in building technology or AI solutions, in a consulting, technology or similar client-facing setting
  • Hands-on coding skills, for example in Python, and experience building working prototypes quickly
  • Regular, practical use of AI coding tools such as Claude Code to write, test and review code
  • A good understanding of how large language models work, what they can and cannot do, and how to build useful solutions with them
  • Working knowledge of at least one major cloud provider (Microsoft Azure, Amazon Web Services or Google Cloud)
  • A practical view of what it takes to move from proof of concept to live: testing, security, monitoring, support and cost
  • An understanding of DevSecOps and FinOps principles
  • Experience working with, or coordinating, technical teams in other organisations or locations
  • Strong problem-solving skills, and the ability to explain technical ideas simply to non-technical people
  • Good client skills, including listening, asking the right questions and building trust
  • Hands-on experience with AI-assisted building tools such as Cursor and Lovable
  • Experience with AI agents and with connecting them to company systems
  • Experience setting up automated testing and release processes
  • Familiarity with data platforms and data governance
