Job summary

The AI Security Institute is the world's largest and best-funded team dedicated to understanding advanced AI risks and translating that knowledge into action. We’re in the heart of the UK government with direct lines to No. 10, and we work with frontier developers and governments globally.

We’re here because governments are critical for advanced AI going well, and UK AISI is uniquely positioned to mobilise them. With our resources, unique agility and international influence, this is the best place to shape both AI development and government action.

Job description

The Talent team is responsible for scaling AISI from the ground up. This is not your normal civil service team – we have built a reputation for getting things done, challenging the status quo and navigating ambiguity.

Our talent pool is highly technical, world leading and in-demand - AI Researchers sit in the most competitive talent field in the world, and we aspire to work with the best. The AISI Recruitment Operations team ensures our processes are designed to effectively assess talent whilst ensuring a positive candidate experience and onboarding experience for new joiners. The Head of Recruitment Operations manages the team that implements, oversees and delivers these critical processes. This role is a 12-month fixed term contract.

As AISI’s Talent model continues to become a model for wider HMG AI recruitment, the Head of Recruitment Operations will scale the team to cover select other DSIT AI recruitment efforts and collaborate closely with other HMG efforts to build the wider AI Talent pipeline into government.

Key Responsibilities

Strategic Recruitment Leadership

  • Lead the recruitment strategy for frontier AI teams, ensuring alignment with organizational goals and government/public sector priorities.
  • Develop and refine recruitment models to attract and retain high-calibre AI professionals with expertise in machine learning, natural language processing, computer vision, and related fields.
  • Collaborate with senior leaders, government agencies, and key stakeholders to understand the specific AI talent needs within the public sector and design tailored recruitment strategies.
  • Collaborate closely with AISI’s People team and senior leaders to co-lead AISI’s wider strategic workforce planning from a recruitment perspective

Operations & Process Optimization

  • Oversee the recruitment process end-to-end, from talent pipeline development to offer negotiation, ensuring efficiency, compliance, and alignment with government regulations.
  • Implement data-driven strategies to continuously improve recruitment processes, enhance candidate experience, and optimize time-to-hire metrics.
  • Develop and manage recruitment workflows, tools, and technology platforms, ensuring best practices are followed across all stages.

Team Management & Development

  • Lead a high-performing recruitment team, fostering a culture of excellence, inclusivity, and innovation, incl. scaling the team across potential sub-teams to cover select other AI recruitment efforts across the department.
  • Provide coaching, mentoring, and development opportunities for recruitment team members and for junior managers on the team, helping them grow in their careers while achieving departmental goals.
  • Collaborate with internal teams to provide training on AI talent trends and recruitment best practices.

Stakeholder Engagement & Collaboration

  • Act as the primary point of contact for all recruitment-related queries, collaborating with HR, hiring managers, and senior leadership to ensure alignment on talent needs and recruitment strategies.
  • Establish strong relationships with government bodies, public sector contractors, and academic institutions to build long-term talent pipelines for AISI.
  • Act as a thought leader and trusted advisor to other HMG partners building the AI recruitment pipeline across government.

Person specification

Required Qualifications & Experience

Proven Experience

  • Extensive experience in talent acquisition and recruitment operations, ideally with time focused on hiring for AI or other technical teams.

  • Demonstrated ability to navigate complexity or ambiguity whilst surfacing clarity and direction.
  • Experience managing end-to-end recruitment for complex, mission-driven initiatives.

Industry Knowledge

  • An understanding of, or interest in AI-related disciplines such as machine learning, data science, natural language processing, robotics, and computer vision.
  • Strong understanding of technical workforce trends, talent supply and demand, and competitive recruitment landscapes.

Leadership & Communication

  • Proven track record of leading and developing recruitment teams, fostering a collaborative and results-oriented environment.
  • Exceptional communication skills, with the ability to influence and engage stakeholders at all levels, including senior leadership and government officials.
  • Ability to navigate complex, multi-stakeholder environments and manage competing priorities effectively.

Data-Driven & Analytical

  • Strong analytical mindset with the ability to use data and insights to drive continuous improvement in recruitment processes.
  • Experience with recruitment technologies, applicant tracking systems (ATS), and talent management platforms.
