Principal Solutions Director GenAI

Principal Solutions Director GenAI - Cork or anywhere in Ireland Remote.

We're partnering with a technology-driven AI company that builds cutting-edge Generative AI B2B solutions for enterprise clients.

They are seeking a Principal Solutions Director GenAI - a senior delivery leader who can turn strategy into execution, lead multiple projects, and help large organisations realise the full potential of Gen AI.

This role is remote within Ireland with a preference for Cork due to some client site work. We will consider people from all over Ireland, with a preference for locations in or close to Waterford, Athlone or North West such as Sligo.

This is a hands-on, high-impact role where you will shape how enterprise Gen AI solutions are delivered, work directly with senior external enterprise client stakeholders (up to C-suite), and ensure delivery teams create measurable business outcomes.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead multiple enterprise Generative AI and advanced technology projects from planning through to successful delivery.
• Act as the day-to-day manager for multidisciplinary delivery teams, ensuring quality, budget, and timeline targets are met.
• Translate technical progress into clear, compelling business outcomes for senior executives.
• Draft and manage SOWs, roadmaps, and progress reporting while spotting risks early.
• Facilitate high-impact stakeholder workshops and align technical and business teams.
• Act as a product-minded delivery lead - prioritise work, manage trade-offs, and capture reusable delivery assets.

Essential Experience - The Non-Negotiable Skills

• Technical Foundation - you must have a background in software engineering, with hands-on coding experience earlier in your career. We need a Principal Solutions Director who still know software engineering.
• Enterprise Delivery Leadership - proven success managing multiple concurrent projects or programmes for external enterprise-level organisations.
• C-Level & Senior Stakeholder Engagement with external clients - excellent communication and facilitation skills with strong experience influencing executive decision-makers.
• A genuine provable interest in AI especially Generative AI.

Highly Desired

• Commercial AI Project Experience - exposure to real-world AI/ML or Generative AI delivery.
• Strong Interest in AI/GenAI - curiosity and enthusiasm for using AI to solve business problems.
• Product management or product owner experience, ideally in a technology delivery environment.
• Experience in regulated or compliance-heavy industries such as the insurance sector.

Why This Role Stands Out

Generative AI Focus - Lead projects at the forefront of enterprise AI adoption.

Strategic Influence - Shape how enterprise clients transform with AI and ensure high-impact delivery.

Remote Flexibility - Work from anywhere in the UK or Ireland  with occasional travel.

Senior Career Move - Step into a principal-level role with significant influence and growth potential.
