The Economist Group
The Economist Group is seeking an Editorial AI Transformation Lead to drive the adoption of AI within its newsroom, focusing on improving workflows and operational efficiency rather than automating journalistic content. This hands-on role involves collaborating with editorial, business, and technical teams to identify high-impact AI opportunities, build prototypes, and embed new ways of working at scale. The position requires strong stakeholder management skills and practical experience in applying AI tools to transform business processes.
The Economist Group is a global media and information-services company dedicated to the pursuit of progress for individuals, organisations and the world. Founded in 1843, it operates through three brands — The Economist, Economist Enterprise, and Economist Education — delivering independent journalism, expert analysis, and intelligence on international business and world affairs. Based in London and serving a global audience, the Group provides content, events, subscriptions, and services in both digital and print formats.
