Work I have anchored here
Direct engagements with enterprise teams at a global asset manager and at a national transport body, both anchored in Leeds operations.

Financial services, professional services and national infrastructure teams
AI Consultant
in Leeds.
Practical AI consulting for teams that want useful systems, not a folder full of prompts. For Leeds teams, the value is in making the work specific: where the data comes from, who reviews it and what the first useful version should do.
// Leeds context
Leeds has a serious finance, professional services and digital cluster. Teams here often go looking for a consultancy, but what most actually need is senior consultant time with governance built in: clear sources, clear approvals, clear handover that survives a procurement and a risk review.

What this looks like in Leeds.
Local market read
Leeds finance and infrastructure teams operate inside heavy compliance frameworks. The useful work here is the kind that survives a procurement and a risk review.
How I work here
Day on-site quarterly or for specific compliance and strategy sessions. Otherwise remote with documented handover.
Where I sit vs other options
Strong digital agency presence (Branded3, Epiphany alumni shops, others), but enterprise teams in Leeds often want senior independent input alongside their agency.
// 01 - the offer
What you are buying.
I help map the work, choose the first sensible use case, build the workflow and leave the team with clear rules.
What You Are Buying
Senior judgement, then a usable AI workflow.
The work is not a bundle of prompts. It is a decision about where AI belongs, what information it can use, who checks the output and how the team keeps the system tidy after the first version.

Why Leeds teams call.
The patterns I see most before the work starts. If two of these sound familiar, the first review call is usually worth the time.
AI ideas are too broad
The team can see potential, but nobody has narrowed it into one useful workflow with clear boundaries.
Prompts drift
Outputs change because the inputs, examples and review rules are not documented well enough.
Nobody owns the system
AI sits between marketing, operations and leadership, so decisions slow down or become tool-led.
Risk stops progress
The business needs source checks, human review and sensible limits before AI can become useful.
// 03 - how the work runs
Phases that end in something usable.
I help choose the AI project that is worth doing first, then define what the system should and should not do.
That means mapping the work, setting source rules, building the first workflow and keeping human review where it matters.
The result is a controlled AI process your team can use without guessing the method each time.
// 01 - locate
Find the right AI use case
Start with the repeated work, the risk level and the people who need to trust the output.
// 02 - limit
Set the rules
Define approved inputs, review points, source checks and what the workflow must avoid.
// 03 - build
Create the first workflow
Prompts, examples, handoffs and checks joined into one usable operating model.
// 04 - adopt
Make the team confident
Handover notes and review habits so the system can improve without becoming loose.
// 04 - proof
Past project profiles.
Two examples of the shape this work takes. Real engagements, anonymised. Not every project looks like these, but the discipline is the same.
Example project profile
AI research assistant for a multi-stakeholder marketing team
The team wanted AI support, but every idea was too broad. The first useful project became a research workflow with approved sources, summary rules and human review before anything reached a brief.

Example project profile
Internal AI policy turned into day-to-day working rules
Leadership needed AI use to move without creating risk. The work became a practical operating guide: what AI can draft, what it cannot touch and where people must check the output.

Leeds AI Consultant FAQ.
Do you work with Leeds teams remotely?
Yes. Most work can run remotely. If a workshop would help, the first step is still a short call to understand the problem and decide whether a session is worth the time.
What does a AI consulting project usually start with?
It usually starts with one narrow problem: a slow process, a technical blocker, a content system that has become messy or an AI idea that needs turning into a controlled workflow.
How quickly can you find the first useful project?
In most cases, the first useful route is visible after a review call and a small sample of the existing process, crawl, content, report or workflow.
