Creative jobs in United Arab Emirates

We are implementing a comprehensive AI Strategy & Code of Responsibility that balances operational efficiency with our regenerative values, creative craft, and B Corp commitments. We need an experienced consultant to execute this strategy; not write more theory, but ship practical outcomes that our team can own and operate independently.

You'll work across leadership, creative, operations, and sustainability teams to implement governance frameworks, operational quick wins, environmental accountability mechanisms, and training programmes. This role requires someone who can facilitate workshops with creative teams, translate AI risks into clear language, and navigate the tension between efficiency and craft.

This is a delivery role. We have the strategy. We need someone who can operationalize it on time and within our SME reality.

• Operationalize our AI Code of Responsibility and internal governance framework
• Issue and embed interim AI usage guidelines (Week 1) to eliminate "Shadow AI" risks
• Define clear decision rights, escalation paths, and accountability owners for AI decisions
• Ensure alignment with GDPR and EU AI Act requirements, appropriately scaled for a 35-person team
• Establish incident reporting pathways and simple governance structures (AI Steering Group, departmental champions)
• Facilitate workshops with Creative, Comms, and Leadership to define and document explicit no-AI boundaries
• Ensure AI adoption enhances efficiency without diluting craft, brand voice, artisan relationships, or human creativity
• Balance aspiration with practical application across 3 stakeholder review cycles

Develop implementation-ready roadmaps for 3–4 priority use cases:

• Shipping cost automation (Shopify integration)
• Upholstery fabric calculators
• Evaluate vendor solutions vs DIY implementation options with cost-benefit analysis
• Provide vendor shortlists, cost estimates, technical prerequisites, and sequencing recommendations

Note: This role delivers strategic roadmaps, not technical implementation (though technical fluency is essential)

• Conduct an environmental impact assessment of all AI tools in use (energy, water, carbon footprint)
• Implement a traffic-light classification system (Green/Amber/Red) aligned with our regenerative mission
• Assess fairness, non-discrimination, and data privacy risks across AI-enabled workflows
• Map personal/confidential data flows and GDPR compliance requirements
• Identify compensating controls where high-value tools carry elevated risk

• Design and deliver 90-minute foundation AI training workshop
• Develop reusable training materials: role-based guides (Creative, Commercial, Ops, Leadership), onboarding checklists, FAQ documentation
• Create AI Decision Framework: simple, one-page tool for evaluating future AI investments
• Equip teams to manage AI responsibly without ongoing consultant dependency

• Act as a trusted partner to the CEO, Nature Director (sustainability lead), and department heads
• Translate complex AI, ethical, and regulatory concepts into accessible language for non-technical, creative teams
• Facilitate co‑creation sessions that respect creative expertise and lived experience
• Navigate the cultural nuances of working with craft‑led, values‑driven organizations

• 8+ years in AI implementation, digital transformation, or technology governance roles
• Proven track record operationalising AI policies, ethical frameworks, or governance structures (not just writing them)
• Deep understanding of generative AI risks: IP exposure, brand dilution, bias/fairness, environmental impact, data privacy
• Experience working with non-technical stakeholders , particularly creative, mission-driven, or values‑led teams
• Practical knowledge of GDPR and emerging AI regulation (EU/UK AI Act preferred)
• Excellent facilitation skills : ability to run workshops that surface nuanced boundaries and build consensus
• Strong documentation and communication : ability to translate complexity into clear, actionable guidance
• Delivery orientation : you ship outcomes, not decks

• Experience with SMEs, B Corps, or regenerative/sustainable businesses
• Exposure to environmental impact assessment or sustainability frameworks applied to technology
• Familiarity with e-commerce, creative industries, luxury/premium brands , or craft‑led organisations
• Experience designing training programmes or capability‑building initiatives that enable independence
• Understanding of AI Act risk classification (high-risk, limited-risk, minimal-risk systems)

• Practical and grounded : You focus on what works in an SME context, not enterprise‑grade complexity
• Values‑driven without being dogmatic : You respect our regenerative mission and creative integrity, but balance it with operational pragmatism
• Comfortable with ambiguity and co‑creation : You bring frameworks and facilitation, not prescriptive answers
• Collaborative and respectful : You understand that creative teams know where the lines are; your job is to help them document and enforce those boundaries

• By April 4, 2026, you will have delivered:
• AI Code of Responsibility ready for publication (April 18 launch)
• Sacred Creative Zones documented and adopted by Creative/Comms teams
• Interim AI Guidelines issued (Week 1) and full governance framework operational
• Operational Quick Wins Roadmaps for 3–4 priority use cases with vendor options, costs, and DIY guidance

• Functioning governance model with clear roles, responsibilities, escalation paths, and incident reporting
• Data flow map highlighting GDPR/AI Act compliance requirements
• Eliminated Shadow AI risk across the organization
• Most importantly, our team will be equipped to manage AI responsibly without ongoing consultant dependency.
