About this role
About the role
AI will only deliver value at TPI if someone owns the work of turning individual experiments into measured, repeatable, scaled capability. This role supports that. The AI Enablement & Value Lead helps functions rethink how work gets done and not simply automate today’s process. They build the skills and community to sustain it, and proves the business impact in numbers Finance will stand behind. This is deliberately a business role, not a technical one. IT builds and secures the tools; this role makes sure the right problems reach them, that the resulting solutions are adopted, scaled across TPI rather than rebuilt, and that the benefit is real.
What you will be doing
- 1. Adoption and community (primary accountability) Build and lead a network of AI champions across functions, sites and TPI subsidiaries. Run the rhythm that keeps adoption alive: office hours, showcases, shared prompt and use-case library, internal comms. Track license and tool utilization; act on under-use before renewal, not after. Act as the recognized first point of contact for AI questions from the business.
- 2. Value realization and benefit measurement (with Finance) Set the baseline before anything is deployed. Without a baseline, there is no claimed benefit. Own the standard business-case template and the benefit tracking record for all AI initiatives. Work with Finance to attest realized benefit; report the pipeline and realized value to the Steer Co and ELT. Monitor seat, subscription and consumption costs against benefit; flag initiatives to stop.
- 3. Scale and project management Turn proven pilots into supported, repeatable capability each with an owner, a support model and a documented process. Maintain a visible register of what exists across TPI so the same solution is not built three times. Run the delivery plan for scaling: scope, milestones, dependencies, resourcing, risks and stakeholder reporting. Enforce the agreed capacity limit on concurrent AI projects per function so growth commitments are protected.
- 4. Use-case intake and portfolio (with Steer Co and Platform ELTs) Run the single front door for AI ideas from anywhere in the business. Apply a first-pass screen: is this genuinely an AI problem, or is it reporting, integration, or process discipline? Size effort and value, prepare initiatives for Steer Co intake and Platform ELT prioritization. Apply stage gates and recommend kill decisions on initiatives that are not going to pay back.
- 5. Skills and training (with HR and L&D) Commission and maintain curriculum content with HR/L&D; keep it current as tools and models change.
Enable managers specifically and ensure they are not the constraint on adoption in their teams.
- Measure applied capability, not course completions.
- Deliver training classes on line or in person as appropriate.
