Description

As a Strategic Delivery Lead for International Public Sector, you will lead complex and high-impact deployments with public sector customers outside the United States. You will work with senior government, multilateral, and partner stakeholders to turn hard institutional and mission problems into practical deployments on the OpenAI Platform API and ChatGPT Enterprise.

You will own and drive delivery workstreams led by specialist internal technical and engineering teams, ensuring clear problem-framing, milestones, risk management, issue resolution, and translation between public-sector objectives and technical solutions.

This is a high-trust, high-autonomy role. Accountability for contractual milestones and acceptance criteria sits with you. Success requires excellent judgement, adaptable programme leadership and management, executive presence, and the ability to turn broad leadership guidance into practical action while escalating when needed.

Key responsibilities include forging partnerships with public sector leaders and AI users globally, serving as the accountable lead for international public sector engagements, translating between technical teams and business stakeholders, and operating as a generalist across opportunity development, pilot shaping, delivery governance, adoption, and risk management.

You will exercise judgement and initiative under ambiguity, staying aligned with leadership priorities without day-to-day direction. You will establish best practices around milestone tracking, internal coordination, customer governance, and delivery operations at scale.

This role requires a strong track record of execution in delivering ambitious goals on complex cross-functional projects, as well as prior experience managing large-scale AI/ML, data, platform, or enterprise API-based deployments.

You will be passionate about how AI and AGI can enhance public sector institutions and improve public-service outcomes responsibly, and get energy from building partnerships across a varied group of people and organisations, from researchers and engineers to policy leaders, procurement teams, delivery partners, and senior government officials.
