This is a unique opportunity to gain hands-on experience in AI development, automation, business analysis, process improvement and change management while working on real projects that deliver meaningful business impact.
You'll work alongside experienced developers, technical specialists and business stakeholders to identify opportunities where AI and automation can improve the way we work. You’ll then help design, build, test and implement solutions, as well as supporting colleagues to adopt and get the most from new technology.
Rawlinson & Hunter is a leading international firm of Chartered Accountants, providing specialist accounting, taxation and advisory services to high-net-worth individuals, families and businesses. Technology has been an important part of the firm's development for more than 20 years, and we have an established in-house IT team comprising developers, cloud specialists, support professionals and trainers.

Your responsibilities will include:
Supporting requirements gathering, process mapping and identifying opportunities for AI and automation.
Assisting with the design and development of AI applications, agents, workflows and automation solutions.
Building and refining solutions using AI development tools, coding assistants and automation platforms.
Testing AI solutions to ensure they are accurate, reliable, secure and fit for purpose.
Supporting the deployment, documentation and rollout of new AI-powered solutions.
Creating user guides and training materials and supporting colleagues with the adoption of new technology.
Gathering user feedback and helping identify opportunities for improvement.
What we’re looking for:
We're looking for someone curious about technology, who enjoys solving problems and is excited by the potential of AI.
You may have developed your experience through education, personal projects, online learning, previous employment or simply experimenting with technology in your own time.
