AI Adoption Consultant

AI Adoption Consultant

AI Delivery Consultant / AI Enablement Consultant / AI Automation Consultant

Reading, Berkshire

Hybrid / remote-first

£45 - 60k Basic

Can you explain ChatGPT to your granny

and then help a leadership team work out where AI will actually save time, improve work, and create ROI?

Because that's roughly the balance here.

This is not a role for someone who has "used ChatGPT a bit".

And it's not a role for a pure trainer who wants a script, a slide deck, and a repeatable delivery schedule every week.

It's for someone who sits somewhere between AI Adoption Consultant, Technical Business Analyst, Solutions Consultant, AI Trainer, AI Automation Consultant, and maybe even a light Forward Deployed AI Engineer type.

Someone who can hold a room.

Someone who can work with vague client problems.

Someone who can spot where LLMs, agents, workflows, prompts, automations or better adoption could genuinely improve how a business works.

Your new role

You'll join a small, fast-growing AI Adoption Consultancy as their first full-time hire.

The founder has built the business through content, referrals, partnerships and inbound demand. There is already enough project and retained client work coming in that they now need someone who can take real delivery ownership.

That means you'll be working directly with them across:

• AI training, workshops and clinics
• Adoption programmes and client roadmaps
• AI agent and workflow ideas
• Prompt libraries, internal enablement and practical AI use cases
• Client conversations, scoping, proposals and retained account work

Some weeks you might be running training.

Some weeks you might be helping a client identify where AI can remove admin, improve process, or speed up decision-making.

Other weeks you might be building or shaping an Agent that helps with things like email triage, SLT board packs, content workflows, CRM updates or internal knowledge access.

That variety is the job.

If that sounds like the kind of work you've been trying to create in your current role, this could be for you.

The organisation

This is a founder-led AI consultancy helping SMEs adopt AI in a practical, business-first way.

Not "AI will replace everyone" approach.

The business is early-stage, but not speculative. It already has retained engagements, project work, associate support, and a very clear growth plan.

You'll be joining at the point where your contribution actually matters.

You'll be close to the founder, close to the clients, and close to the decisions.

What you'll bring

You'll probably have a background in one of these areas:

• AI Consultant / AI Adoption Consultant / AI Enablement Consultant
• Technical Business Analyst / Technical Project Manager
• Solutions Consultant / Presales Consultant
• Change & Adoption Consultant
• Power Platform, Copilot, M365 or automation-focused role
• Trainer who can consult, or a Consultant who can train

You don't need to be a software engineer.

But you do need to be a serious daily user of AI.

You'll be comfortable with tools like ChatGPT, Claude, Copilot, agents, automations, workflows, APIs, n8n or similar.

You won't necessarily be coding from scratch, but you'll understand enough to work with AI-generated code, connect tools together, ask the right questions, and work out what's possible.

More importantly, you'll be credible with people.

You can run a workshop.

You can explain AI without making people feel stupid.

You can talk to non-technical users, senior stakeholders, and over time, board-level clients.

What's in it for you

You'll get:

• £45 - 60k basic salary
• Hybrid / remote-first working
• Reading base, with client travel as needed
• Fully expensed client travel
• 30 days holiday plus bank holidays
• Training, certifications and proper development
• Direct access to the founder from day one
• A realistic path into practice leadership as the business grows

This probably won't suit you if

You want a rigid job description.

You need a manager checking in every hour.

You only want to train and never get involved in client problem-solving.

You only want to build agents and never stand in front of a room.

You like the idea of AI, but don't really use it every day.

This is a small, but rapidly growing business. You'll need initiative, curiosity, honesty and a bit of entrepreneurial energy.

What next?

Send your CV, LinkedIn profile, or just a short message explaining why this sounds like you.

If you're the person in your current team who everyone comes to for AI ideas, automations, prompts, workflows or "how could we do this better?" chats, that's a great place to start.
