We are looking for an experienced AI Business Designer who can bridge the gap between business needs and the opportunities of data and AI.
Who are we?
Solita Design & Strategy forms a Northern European community of about 200 strategic designers, digital designers, enterprise designers and business transformation makers. Our work is rooted in the understanding of humans and their behavior and how to create real world value from data and emerging technologies. Together with our data and technology experts, we guide our clients – from global corporations to the public sector – toward building the services and businesses of the future.
What do we expect from you?
You have experience in delivering impactful data and AI projects in one or more organizations – and possibly also leading data and AI teams. You are hands-on in identifying business opportunities with experts and know how to build credible business cases to drive sustainable solutions.
You’re comfortable in engaging and inspiring senior leadership to invest in data and AI. You are skilled in planning and leading projects. You understand the potential and pitfalls of both traditional and generative AI – and know how to turn them into success. You speak technology fluently: you act as a bridge between business and technical experts, with a solid grasp of architecture and analytics, while keeping your focus on the strategic big picture.
You thrive in multidisciplinary teams, take ownership of delivering real business outcomes, and lead work in a way that aligns with the organization’s nature, strategy, and goals. You approach data, analytics and AI through the lens of human, organizational, and business value – design thinking comes naturally to you.
Our clients range from global corporations to public sector organizations, so fluency in both Finnish and English is required.
In a nutshell, we’re looking for:
- Proven experience in leading or driving data and AI projects and/or teams
- Strong understanding of AI (including GenAI) opportunities and challenges
- Credibility and confidence to advise senior executives and decision-makers
- Experience or solid understanding of design thinking as a tool for business development
- Ability to bridge the gap between business needs and technical capabilities
- A proactive and responsible way of working – you lead yourself and project teams
- Ability to identify new opportunities and take ownership of customer value
- A continuous learning mindset, and willingness to share knowledge and grow with the community
- Fluency in Finnish and English
What we offer
- Challenging, meaningful and impactful projects with a wide variety of clients, from global companies to public organizations
- A diverse community of exceptional professionals who love to learn, challenge and support each other.
- We work as a team. You won’t be left alone.
- A relaxed, caring and trust-based culture where you can be yourself.
- A workplace with both freedom and responsibility.
- Support for your work and you.
- A good balance between work and free time. That’s what our employees see as one of the biggest benefits at Solita.
