About the role

AI Operations Lead at DELVE Deeper optimizing business operations and integrating AI tools. Responsible for workflow automation and process improvement in a hybrid work environment.

Responsibilities

You map how work actually flows across the agency — where time is spent, where handoffs break down, where decisions stall, and where the same effort repeats.
You bring process mining discipline to this analysis: decomposing workflows into their component steps, quantifying the cost of each, and identifying precisely where AI intervention creates the most leverage.
From the process analysis, you identify and prioritise the workflows best suited for automation.
You score opportunities by recoverable time and implementation effort, brief the implementation team to build in n8n, and sign off before anything reaches the people using it.
You are continuously scanning for AI opportunities that fall outside the automation backlog.
You prototype and test candidate solutions hands-on before recommending them, and you own the recommendation.
You track usage and outcomes across everything deployed — automations, knowledge tools, AI-assisted workflows.
You measure what is working and what is getting traction, identify friction early, and direct iteration before patterns calcify.

Workflow analysis and process mapping across complex, cross-functional operations

Technology selection judgement — matches tool to operational problem based on real testing
Brief writing — translates process analysis into tight, actionable implementation specs
Outcome accountability — tracks adoption and results, not just delivery
Change management — moves resistant teams from scepticism to habitual use
High-trust relationship building at every level of seniority
