JOB DESCRIPTION
This is an exciting and fast paced role shaping how HMG harnesses the opportunities of AI. The Prime Minister has put seizing the benefits of AI at the heart of national renewal, be it driving economic growth, or transforming working people’s lives by improving healthcare, education and how citizens interact with the state.
AI is transforming how knowledge and culture are created, accessed and rewarded. The UK’s copyright framework must evolve to keep pace – protecting creators and rights holders, giving businesses clarity and fair routes to access data, and enabling responsible innovation. Without clear, future‑ready rules, the UK risks both constraining our world‑class creative industries and falling behind in AI adoption.
This role puts you at the centre of that change. You will lead a high‑performing team to set strategy, develop policy and legislation, and forge partnerships across government, industry, academia and international counterparts. You will work closely with ministers and senior leaders, engaging stakeholders from AI and the creative sectors to deliver practical solutions that both incentivise human creativity and support the deployment of advanced AI.
NATIONALITY REQUIREMENTS
This job is broadly open to the following groups:
