The King’s Trust has a bold ambition to equip a million young people with the AI skills they need for the future world of work. As our Proposition Development Manager – AI Skills, you’ll work with young people, delivery teams and specialist partners to design practical learning experiences, test ideas through pilots and turn what we learn into an offer that works at scale. This is your chance to get hands-on with a major national ambition, making sure young people facing the greatest barriers help shape an offer that works for them.

You’ll work out how young people find, access and experience the AI Skills offer across our programmes, partners and self-service routes. Working with young people and colleagues across digital, data, content and delivery, you’ll design and run pilots, use feedback to improve the offer and create clear plans to make it work at scale.

We’re looking for someone who enjoys taking an idea and working out how to make it happen. You could come from service or proposition design, product development, innovation, digital services, education, skills or employability. You’ll be comfortable getting into the detail, bringing different people together and testing and improving ideas rather than expecting everything to be perfectly defined from day one.
