Identify internal champions, navigate corporate politics, manage structural blockers, and drive measurable user adoption and organizational change. * Strategy & AI Use Case Scoping: Work closely with C-level stakeholders to answer high-stakes questions: How can AI reshape their business models? How should they govern data? You don't just advise; you help evaluate model choices, discuss data privacy trade-offs, and conceptualize technical feasibility. * Drive Business Growth: Actively drive the growth of our German practice. Take ownership in lead generation and pipeline conversion by engaging prospective clients, shaping proposals, and leading pre-sales and key-account expansion initiatives. * Thought Leadership & Advocacy: Represent Artefact's AI Transformation perspective externally. Advance our voice in enterprise AI through expert discussions, content creation (e.g. LinkedIn, whitepapers), and opinionated, hands-on perspectives on applied AI trends and real-world adoption pathways. * Advance the Practice: Evolve our methodologies, tools, and frameworks to keep our offering state-of-the-art.
