READY TO DO WORK YOU'RE PROUD OF? At Charlie Oscar, we're not your typical digital marketing agency. We're a team of big thinkers, bold doers, and collaborative problem-solvers working with some of the world's most ambitious brands to help them outsmart, outpace, and outgrow the competition. We blend data science and creativity to make smarter decisions and create work that genuinely moves the needle. The numbers give us clarity, but it's our creativity that wins hearts, builds brands, and drives real growth. Over the past few years, we've been building a modern, high-performance marketing consultancy that's as serious about how we operate as it is about the work we produce. We move fast, we experiment, we improve, and we raise the bar - continuously. Life at Charlie Oscar is fast-paced, ambitious, and full of momentum. You'll work alongside some of the sharpest minds in the industry, solving meaningful problems, delivering work you're proud of, and seeing the impact you make for global brands. And we know it's not all about work. We make time for fun too - whether it's weekly run club, book and chess clubs, charity fundraisers, Thursday drinks, or epic team socials, there's always something going on and plenty of great people to do it with. Most importantly, we hire for attitude and culture add, not just experience. We look for curious, ambitious people who challenge the status quo, raise standards, and want to help shape what the next generation of marketing looks like. THE ROLE Charlie Oscar is building Agency 2.0 - a new kind of marketing services business that blends strategic consultancy, custom AI agents, and agency delivery into a future-proof operating model. We're well into our journey towards an AI-first operating system for the business. We focus on two core streams - intelligence and automation - and we call this Charlie Oscar OS. This is a CEO-backed, business-critical initiative that's already in motion, and this role is about taking it to the next level. We're not experimenting with AI at the edges. We're actively embedding it into how the company runs - and now we're looking for a senior operator to bring structure, scale, and consistency to that evolution. We're hiring a Head of AI Operations to own, formalise, and accelerate our AI-first operating model. You'll build on the foundations already in place and take them further - rewiring how work gets done across strategy, delivery, analytics, and operations using AI (LLMs, agents, and automation). You'll define and refine how knowledge is captured, how data flows, how workflows run, and how AI becomes the default way of working at Charlie Oscar. You will be the internal authority on "how Charlie Oscar works."

You'll be building, shipping, embedding, and improving - not just creating roadmaps. WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR 10+ years' experience in digital, marketing, media, consulting, or agency environments Proven experience leading operational change across multi-disciplinary teams (strategy, media, creative, data, ops, etc.) A track record of taking new ways of working from "promising" to "how we do things here" Hands-on experience standardising and scaling workflows, processes, and delivery models Experience owning or significantly shaping internal operating models, playbooks, or delivery frameworks Strong understanding of how modern agencies actually run: resourcing, delivery, margin, velocity, quality, and client outcomes Experience working with data flows across platforms like Meta, Google, TikTok, CRM, analytics, and attribution tools Comfort bringing structure, consistency, and automation to evolving or imperfect systems Experience partnering with senior leadership and founders/CEOs on business-critical change Proven ability to drive adoption of new tools, systems, and behaviours across teams (including training and enforcement) Confidence operating as the clear owner of "how work gets done" internally Experience working with external vendors, engineers, or platforms to ship operational tooling and systems Strong judgment on what to automate, what to standardise, and what should stay flexible Commercial awareness: understands how operational efficiency, quality, and speed translate into better margins and client outcomes AI Experience (Non-Negotiable) You must: Be an advanced, daily user of multiple LLMs Have built or designed AI workflows, prompts, or agents Understand LLM strengths, limitations, and failure modes Be comfortable owning an enterprise LLM setup (even if you're not technical) You might also have experience in: Scaling an agency, consultancy, or hybrid services business Rolling out company-wide tools or platforms (e.g. knowledge systems, workflow tools, data platforms, AI tools) Leading ops, transformation, delivery excellence, or internal systems functions Cleaning up messy processes, fragmented tools, and inconsistent ways of working WHAT MAKES US US - OUR VALUES At Charlie Oscar, our values aren't just posters on the wall - they show up in how we work, how we treat each other, and how we build something brilliant together.
