<p><span style="font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;"><span style="color: rgb(52, 73, 94);">Prolific is not just another player in the AI space – we are the architects of the human data infrastructure </span><span style="color: rgb(52, 73, 94);">that's reshaping the landscape of AI development. In a world where foundational AI technologies are increasingly commoditized, it's the quality and diversity of human-generated data that truly differentiates products and models.</span></span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;"><em><span style="color: rgb(126, 140, 141);">The role</span></em></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">Prolific for AI takes on a wide and fast-moving range of customer projects across our biggest AI accounts. Every project has its own requirements, systems, and stakeholders – and right now, that complexity lives in people's heads rather than on paper. We're looking for a Business Analyst / Product Operations Manager to fix that.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">You’ll get into the weeds of each project's requirements and systems, and turn that complexity into visual maps that the whole team can work from. You’ll be the person who steps back across them, spots the patterns, and tells us what's repeating, what's diverging, and what should become a reusable playbook.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">You'll also own how requests reach the product team in the first place, building the internal intake process that determines how we become aware of, understand, and prioritise customer asks. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;"><strong>Impact:</strong> You'll bring order and visibility to a high-throughput, high-complexity part of the business. Every pilot you map makes the next one faster to run and easier to hand off. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;"><strong>Experience:</strong> You’ll come from a Product or Delivery or Operations background and have cross-functional skills. Building the plane while flying it should excite you, not scare you. You're comfortable being the person who asks the detailed questions until the system actually makes sense – and you know how to represent what you've learned so that other people can act on it immediately, without a meeting.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;"><strong>Domain:</strong> You'll sit within Prolific for AI, working across multiple customer projects at once – all of them among our biggest accounts. You'll partner closely with Product, Engineering, and Services teams who run these projects day to day. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;"><strong>Culture:</strong> Adding on to our <strong>Prolific Principles</strong>, we expect colleagues to demonstrate reliability, grit, diplomacy, a bias for action, and a dogged focus on value – you'll bring these behaviours to a role that only works if people trust your attention to detail and precision of communication.</span></p>
