The Opportunity

Gravitas are working with a large, forward-thinking organisation investing heavily in enterprise AI enablement across the Microsoft ecosystem.

With foundational licensing already in place (including Copilot Studio and Azure AI Foundry) and early-stage prototypes underway, they are now looking for a hands-on AI Developer to take ownership of building out capability, standards and scalable solutions.

This is a unique opportunity for someone who wants to set up and shape the AI function, defining how AI is designed, governed and deployed across a complex, multi-stakeholder environment.
