Job Summary
You help client executives decide where AI is worth pursuing, set the governance to use it safely, and leave the client able to run it without us. ABOUT CENTRAX DIGITAL Centrax Digital is an AI-first consulting and digital engineering firm operating from Bryanston, Sandton and Grand Prairie, Texas. We are a Level 1 B-BBEE, black woman-owned Advanced Zoho Partner. Our work spans AI and advisory, platforms, cloud and security, and digital engineering, delivered on our own published methodology. Because Innovation Matters. THE ROLE To lead the strategy and governance side of Centrax Digital AI engagements on CAIF-5, the Centrax AI delivery framework. You build the business case and roadmap, design client AI governance, and carry accountability for measured capability transfer, working through the Prioritise, Govern and Adopt pillars of CAIF-5. WHAT YOU WILL DO - Lead AI strategy and readiness engagements with client executives, using the CAIF-5 assessment toolkit to baseline data, capability, process and governance maturity. - Identify, size and prioritise AI use cases against value, feasibility, risk and data readiness, and recommend against AI where a simpler option serves the client better. - Build business cases and investment roadmaps with explicit assumptions, benefit measures and a baseline. - Design AI governance for client organisations: policies, decision rights, risk registers, model inventories and oversight structures, aligned to POPIA, sector regulation and King IV. - Lead or advise on Centrax Transition engagements, including tranche planning and the capability-transfer measures the fee-at-risk depends on. - Define the operating model and change plan for AI adoption, working with the Change Lead. - Work with AI Solutions Architects and AI Engineers so that the strategy hands over cleanly to delivery. - Lead pre-sales on strategy engagements using the published Centrax methodology and pricing, and coach consultants on the engagement. WHAT YOU NEED - Bachelor's degree in Business, Economics, Engineering, Computer Science, Information Systems or a related field. An MBA, MSc or equivalent postgraduate qualification is an advantage. - Minimum 10 years' experience in management consulting, technology strategy or digital transformation, including at least 3 years in data or AI. - At least two AI or advanced analytics strategy engagements led end to end, resulting in a funded roadmap or measurable outcome. - Experience advising executive committees or boards on investment decisions. - Experience designing technology or AI governance in a regulated South African sector such as financial services, public sector, healthcare or telecommunications. - Formal study in AI strategy or AI governance, or a governance, risk or privacy certification (for example ISO/IEC 42001 Lead Implementer, CGEIT, CRISC or CIPP/E), is an advantage. WHERE THE BOUNDARIES SIT Solution design sits with the AI Solutions Architect and build with the AI Engineers. Delivery governance sits with the Project Manager and delivery leadership.
