AI Engagement Lead - United Kingdom

About forgd

forgd partners with Anthropic to help enterprise customers adopt Claude Code, Claude for Enterprise, and the Claude Developer Platform. We work hands-on with enterprise organisations to demonstrate what's possible with Claude, run focused proof-of-value workshops, and guide multi-week engagements that fundamentally change how teams build software and run their businesses.

About the Role

As an AI Engagement Lead at forgd, you will own the full lifecycle of AI transformation engagements that reshape how enterprises build software and run their businesses. You are the single accountable lead, from scoping through closure and expansion. This is not a traditional project management or post-sales handoff role—you will be a strategic partner who drives measurable AI transformation outcomes alongside our Applied AI Architects, serving as the single point of contact for customer sponsors and executives.

You will manage concurrent engagements across our offering portfolio, ensuring every engagement delivers demonstrable value, drives lasting adoption of Claude within the customer's organisation, and builds the delivery practices that scale forgd's impact. You will lead scoping and SOW authoring with GTM, coordinate teams of 1–5 Applied AI Architects during delivery, and build the templates, methodologies, and operational infrastructure that define how forgd delivers.
