Why this role, why now
AI is already part of how we work across Payfit. We’re now scaling its use across high-value workflows to help our teams work faster, with greater accuracy and consistency, and deliver measurable improvements in productivity, service quality and execution speed.
As one of our first AI Workflow Builders, you’ll take workflows from business problem to everyday adoption. You’ll work closely with business teams to understand how work gets done, redesign processes around AI agents, build and configure solutions in short cycles, and improve them through weekly demos and user feedback. You’ll partner with our Application Framework team to ensure every solution is secure, reliable, and scalable.
The team
You'll join a dedicated AI Enablement team of 4, plus a team lead reporting directly to the CEO. The team's mandate is focused delivery - identifying the highest-value workflow opportunities across Payfit, building AI agents that connect to our business systems, and iterating until solutions become part of everyday work.
You'll work in close, structured collaboration with the Application Framework team in Engineering - co-building shared permissions, approved integrations, evaluation frameworks, monitoring, and human interaction patterns. The focus team owns workflow delivery and adoption; Application Framework owns shared infrastructure and technical standards.
Success is measured in net time saved, cycle time reduction, quality improvements, sustained usage, and operating cost.
Map current workflows with users — simplify before automating, identify pain points, decisions, and exceptions that AI can absorb.
Co-design the target process and clear success criteria with business teams, aligning on value before building.
Build and iterate agents and low-code workflows (prompts, knowledge sources, structured data) to deliver working solutions quickly.
Connect systems and steps via approved integrations, APIs, or lightweight scripts — partnering with engineers when the problem requires it.
Pilot, document, and roll out workflows; train users, support change, and use feedback to drive sustained adoption.
Co-own shared patterns with the Application Framework team: permissions, evaluation, monitoring, human review steps, and security.
Experience in business operations, process improvement, product building, consulting, or transformation.
Hands-on practice with agent platforms, automation tools, or low-code environments.
Comfort working with prompts, structured data, APIs, and lightweight scripting — you don't need to be an engineer, but you're not afraid of the technical layer.
A track record of simplifying processes, building working solutions, and improving them based on user feedback.
Strong listening and communication skills — you can turn a messy workflow conversation into a clear redesign proposal.
Practical approach to user adoption: you think about change management, not just configuration.

Adapt your resume
- List these exact terms on your resume: AI agents, Process Optimization, Workflow Automation, and Cross Functional Collaboration. An applicant tracking system matches the wording, not the idea.
