About Scale Scale builds AI systems for decisions that matter. We started out providing the data and evaluation behind many of the world's leading models, and we still work with the major frontier labs on research and post-training. Today we also build full applications: we take an organisation's own data and expertise, forward deploy alongside their teams, and build the systems they come to rely on, powered by the Scale GenAI Platform. The Role The UK is making a wholesale shift to AI. The government's AI Opportunities Action Plan set out to "mainline AI into the veins" of the country, and the focus has now moved to delivery: the Incubator for AI ( i.AI ) is shipping tools like the Humphrey suite into departments, a Sovereign AI Unit and AI Growth Zones are being stood up, and civilian departments are under real pressure to move from pilots to production. Scale can play a foundational role in building the reliable AI applications that shift depends on. We're looking for someone to lead that work in central government. This isn’t about staying in the office and managing a team of sales people, its about building the business from the front. You'd own our commercial relationships across civilian departments, starting where the near-term pipeline is strongest: HMRC, DWP, and NHS. This is a critical role reporting directly to our Head of Public Sector, UK. You'd carry a number, win deals yourself, and build a small team behind you as the work grows. It suits someone who has sold into these departments before and knows how they actually make decisions, not just how the org charts look. What you'll do Own our commercial plan and pipeline for UK civilian central government Find, shape, and close deals yourself, from the first conversation through to contract and into delivery Use the relationships you already have across departments like HMRC, DWP, and NHS Work the frameworks, tenders and teaming, and know which route to market is worth the effort and which isn't.
