AI Analyst - Banking - Python/SQL

We’re working with a global investment bank to hire an AI Analyst into their London team, focused on delivering practical AI solutions that directly impact front-office and business performance.

This is a hands-on role sitting between AI engineering and business delivery, working closely with London-based stakeholders and a global AI function to build, iterate and deploy high-value AI applications.

The Role

You will be responsible for taking AI use cases from idea through to delivery, working directly with end users to understand requirements, build solutions, and continuously improve them.

Key responsibilities include:

• Developing and deploying AI/ML solutions using Python and SQL
• Working with LLMs, including prompt engineering, evaluation and optimisation
• Engaging directly with business users to scope requirements and translate into technical solutions
• Building, testing and iterating AI products in a fast-paced, delivery-focused environment
• Supporting deployment, QA and ongoing improvement of AI tools
• Training users and embedding solutions into day-to-day workflows
• Operating within a regulated financial services environment, ensuring compliance and governance standards are met

What We’re Looking For

• 3–6 years’ experience in AI, Data Science or ML Engineering roles
• Strong Python and SQL skills, including data manipulation (Pandas)
• Experience working with LLMs, prompt engineering and model optimisation
• Understanding of end-to-end AI delivery from requirements through to deployment
• Exposure to financial services or regulated environments is highly desirable
• Strong communication skills with the ability to work directly with non-technical stakeholders
• Comfortable working in a hands-on, business-facing role

Why Join?

• Opportunity to work on real-world AI applications with measurable business impact
• Close collaboration with both local stakeholders and global AI leadership
• High visibility role with direct exposure to decision-makers
• Ideal for someone looking to move beyond modelling into end-to-end AI product delivery
