The Deputy Director, Head of AI Assurance will lead HMRCs approach to assuring the responsible, safe and effective deployment
of AI across the organisation.
The role will provide strategic leadership for the AI assurance function within the Chief AI Office (CAIO), ensuring that AI activity across HMRC is aligned to organisational priorities, meets clear governance and assurance expectations, and can progress at pace within appropriate guardrails.
The post holder will not replace existing specialist functions such as data protection, cyber security, legal, commercial, architecture, risk or ethics. Instead, they will act as the senior alignment point for AI assurance, bringing together the right expertise at the right point in the lifecycle and ensuring that teams receive clear, proportionate and practical assurance advice.
