Desirable * An understanding of professional services, publishing, legal markets, research or other knowledge-intensive environments would be advantageous. ## Description Our new AI Product Owner will provide central product ownership for AI capabilities developed and used across Legal 500, spanning multiple business units, functions and AI products. We see the primary premise of this role is to ensure that investment in AI is prioritised against Legal 500's business objectives, that products solve clearly defined business problems, and that appropriate quality, governance, human oversight and accountability are built into their lifecycle. What you'll do: You will have the opportunity to operate as centrally within Legal 500, sitting within the 'Project' unit within our People & Business Operations function. You'll work across business-unit leaders, users, Technology, Data, Governance and relevant technology partners or suppliers. You'll be accountable for maintaining an enterprise AI product portfolio and roadmap and have responsibility for translating business needs into prioritised product requirements. This role is also about overseeing adoption and value realisation and ensuring AI products continue to improve as Legal 500's operating models evolve. There is a possibility we may grow this team out to support on AI-specific engineering tasks. ## Related Videos - [Building Products in the era of GenAI](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/827-building-products-in-the-era-of-genai) - [Edit Your Future: Queerverse Radical AI](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/909-edit-your-future-queerverse-radical-ai) - [Building the Next Generation of Software](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100186-building-the-next-generation-of-software) - [AI is dead, long live AK](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1093-ai-is-dead-long-live-ak) - [GenAI after the Hype: Transforming Organizations with GenAI-based Agents](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1099-genai-after-the-hype-transforming-organizations-with-genai-based-agents) - [Every CEO needs a digital twin to understand the scope of generative AI](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1006-every-ceo-needs-a-digital-twin-to-understand-the-scope-of-generative-ai) ## Related Articles - [Navigating the AI Shift](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/629-navigating-the-ai-shift) - [How to Become an AI Engineer](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/331-how-to-become-an-ai-engineer) - [What Industries Outside of AI Are Hiring The Most AI Experts?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/98-what-industries-outside-of-ai-are-hiring-the-most-ai-experts) - [Coffee with Developers - Maria Apazoglou - Making AI understandable for all in production](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/475-coffee-with-developers-maria-apazoglou-making-ai-understandable-for-all-in-production) - [Got AI ideas but no money?
