A new credentialed institution is being built to deliver independent AI governance verification — at the level a regulator-facing examination requires — for UK regulated firms, EU institutions navigating the AI Act, and GCC sovereign clients. The category is genuinely empty. No credentialed institutional player owns it today. Big Four advisory firms are structurally conflicted. Software platforms produce dashboards, not signed Verdicts. Law firms deliver opinions, not operational assessments. Notified Bodies for AI are not yet designated. The institutional seat is being built now — and we are recruiting the founding practitioner to help build it. The institution operates on the Lloyd's-of-London architecture. Senior figures of standing — former financial regulators, King's Counsel, Tier-1 academics, sovereign programme directors — sit as Founding Fellows and sign the assessments under named authority. The paired infrastructure produces the sealed, recomputable artefact the regulator-facing examination receives. We are building what does not yet exist and will be the institutional standard. We are recruiting one founding practitioner to design the methodology, the platform-integration architecture, and the Fellow-readiness operations the institution will run on — and to lead the assessments themselves once engagement letters begin landing. This is not a delivery role inside an established firm. This is a co-founding role inside an institution being built in real time. Engagement structure (full-time, part-time, or other) is discussed in conversation and tailored to the right candidate. WHY NOW UK SM&CR Section 36, FCA Consumer Duty, the EU AI Act (Articles 17 and 43 conformity assessment, Annex III high-risk obligations), the EU Machinery Regulation, UAE Federal PDPL, DIFC Regulation 10, and SDAIA frameworks are simultaneously mandating independent AI governance attestation. UK firms are running readiness programmes already. Provider-led conformity assessment in the EU strengthens demand for credentialed third-party validation — because legal accountability for the conformity claim sits squarely on the provider organisation. The window in which institutional verification becomes mandatory is 2026 to 2029. The first-mover advantage is real and time-limited. THE FIRST NINETY DAYS — THREE STREAMS OF WORK Methodology architecture. Translate a five-dimension governance framework into documented assessment rubrics, scoring criteria, evidence protocols, and the assessment template that Fellows will sign. Author the methodology playbook v1 — which becomes the institutional standard. Platform integration. Work alongside the engineering lead to define what the operator portal must capture, structure canonical JSON, design evidence-intake architecture, and ensure the seal pipeline matches methodology output. Fellow-readiness operations. Build per-Fellow conflict-check workflows, hardware-key onboarding process, signing protocol, scheduling system. Ensure the operational stack is ready before the first engagement letter signs. Once the first engagements begin landing, you lead delivery alongside the founder commercially and the named Fellow on substantive sign-off. The work you build in Phase 1 becomes the institutional standard. CAREER PATH — TWELVE TO THIRTY-SIX MONTHS The role is designed to evolve as the institution scales. Title and scope progress against business milestones, not against time: — Founding Practice Lead (Day 1) Methodology, platform integration, Fellow-readiness, first Verdicts. — Practice Lead (post first paid Verdict) Runs the Verdict pipeline, co-leads standards-body engagement, recruits and oversees Reserve Fellows. — Director (post Series A close OR third paying client) Owns the Practice end-to-end, leads regulator engagement, manages Practitioner team. — VP / Chief of Practice (post fifth client OR institutional accreditation milestone) Institutional voice, partner-track economics, co-founder participation in strategic decisions. The path is not theoretical. It is structurally aligned to the milestones the institution must clear to scale, and the equity vesting milestones reflect the same trajectory. The candidate who ships methodology v1, signs the first Verdicts, and represents the institution at standards-body level is on the Co-founder ladder. WHAT WE ARE LOOKING FOR You have personally built and delivered an AI governance, AI risk, or AI assurance framework or assessment — either to an external regulated client as the lead practitioner, or as the senior architect of an enterprise-internal Responsible AI programme that could withstand external scrutiny. You have working knowledge of at least two of: — EU AI Act (Article 14 human oversight, Annex III high-risk obligations, Articles 17 and 43 conformity regime) — UK FCA SM&CR Section 36 and Consumer Duty — ISO 42001 and NIST AI Risk Management Framework — Model risk management (SR 11-7, PRA SS1/23) — UK GDPR Article 22 and the ICO AI Auditing Framework You have authored a governance framework or methodology from scratch — not adapted, not extended. You can draft an assessment that a Chief Risk Officer will sign their name to defending in front of a regulator. That is the standard. You are ready to step out of an established firm's pyramid and into a founding role where the work you build becomes the institutional standard you will run for the next decade. WHAT THIS ROLE OFFERS — A founding role in a credentialed institution being built to last — your name on the institutional standard from Day 1. — Founding equity in the operating company, milestone-vested against foundation, delivery, and scale milestones. — Career progression from Founding Practice Lead to Director to VP / Chief of Practice — gated to business milestones, not annual reviews. — Co-founder participation in strategic decisions as the institution scales. — Direct line to the founder. No middle layer.

The Council is looking for someone who has previously held Director‑level accountability within a local authority housing environment and can operate confidently at the Executive, Cabinet and political interface.\n\nThe Context\n\nThis interim appointment provides leadership continuity across the housing standards, assets and investment portfolio during a critical period.

Location: London (hybrid) Level: Director Reporting to: VP of Engineering The company This is a well-funded, fast-growing B2B SaaS company that's become one of the most talked-about in its space. They've hit unicorn status and are now in the middle of a significant scaling phase — the engineering org is ~50 people today and is expected to grow to 150+ over the next 12 months. The product is used by some of the world's fastest-growing companies. The team is distributed across the UK and Europe, with a strong technical bar and a no-nonsense engineering culture. People here came from Google, Meta, Vercel, and high-growth scaleups. The VP of Engineering spent 9+ years at Google managing infrastructure teams at significant scale before joining at an early stage. This is not a corporate environment. Founders are hands-on, technical, and have high standards. The people who thrive here have opinions, make decisions, and lead from the front. The role You'll be joining as one of two Engineering Directors, sitting between the VP of Engineering and a layer of engineering managers who each lead autonomous product squads. You'll own a significant portion of the engineering organisation and be accountable for how it performs, scales, and grows. This is a player-coach role in the truest sense of leadership — not hands-on coding, but close enough to the technical work that you can hold your own in a systems design conversation, challenge architectural decisions, and earn the respect of strong engineers. What you'll be doing: • Managing a set of engineering managers and senior ICs, acting as their line manager, coach, and technical sounding board, • Owning the health and output of multiple product squads — delivery, quality, morale, and hiring, • Partnering with the VP of Engineering on org design, technical strategy, and how engineering scales from here, • Driving hiring across your org — you'll be building something meaningful over the next 12 months, • Feeding into cross-functional decisions alongside product, design, and go-to-market leadership, • Being the person who makes the call when things are ambiguous, moves fast when speed matters, and is comfortable having hard conversations What we're looking for Must-haves: • Experience managing engineering managers (not just individual contributors) — you've operated a layer of abstraction above the squads, • A background that combines time at a well-engineered large company and time at a high-growth B2B SaaS scaleup — you understand both how great engineering is built and what it takes to ship fast with limited resources, • The technical depth to do a credible systems design conversation — you don't need to write production code but you need to understand the tradeoffs engineers are making, • Experience in the 50–200 engineer range — you've either been through a scaling journey like this or are close enough to it that you understand what breaks and why, • Comfortable with ambiguity, fast-changing priorities, and a culture where the people above you are also deeply capable Strong signals: • B2B SaaS domain experience — RevOps, developer tooling, or anything close to the product surface, • You've hired well at pace — you know what great looks like and you can move quickly to close, • You've let people go when it was the right thing to do, • You've worked in a distributed team and made it work, • You're the kind of person who's done their research before walking into a room Not a fit if: • You're looking for a quiet, process-heavy environment, • Your default mode is "let me set up a committee", • You describe your leadership style primarily as "servant leader" and leave it there, • You haven't been close to the technical work in several years The interview process • Track record conversation (45 min, remote), • Incident response / technical leadership (45 min, remote) Compensation Competitive base salary, meaningful equity, and benefits. Range discussed on first conversation.

Job Description for Design Engineer (Mechanical/Chemical/Process) Environmental Control Systems Location: Remote (UK-based) with travel to client sites Grade: S4 – Intermediate Project/Design Consulting Engineer Salary: £42,000 – £48,000 per annum (dependent on experience) Contract: Permanent, full-time (40 hours/week, flexible) Reports to: Managing Director / Senior Engineer OUR COMPANY MECHON is an independent environmental control systems consultancy. We design ventilation, LEV, specialist HVAC, and air pollution control systems for manufacturing, defence, pharmaceutical, and R&D environments across the UK and internationally. Our clients include major defence contractors, automotive manufacturers, chemical companies, and research facilities. We are not a contractor or installer. We are the consulting engineers who assess the problem, design the solution, write the specifications, and oversee delivery. Our work combines chemical and mechanical engineering — from workplace exposure assessment and DSEAR risk analysis through to full system design, dispersion modelling, and commissioning support. We are looking for a Design Engineer to join our team at Intermediate level (Grade S4), with a structured 2–4 year development pathway toward becoming a fully independent consulting engineer. WHAT YOU'LL DO You will work under the guidance of senior engineers to deliver environmental control system designs from concept through to completion. This is a consulting engineering role — the primary outputs are engineering calculations, risk assessments, technical reports, and design specifications. We have a dedicated CAD team; drawing production is not your core function. Your responsibilities will include: • Engineering calculations for LEV and process HVAC systems (airflow, pressure drop, thermal loads, exposure benchmarking), • ite surveys and audits to assess existing systems and gather design information, • Risk assessment work including COSHH exposure assessment and DSEAR under senior supervision, • Technical report writing and design specifications for clients, • Client liaison - attending design meetings, presenting findings, managing technical relationships, • Supporting project delivery from concept through to commissioning and handover WHAT WE NEED FROM YOU We don't expect you to arrive as a ventilation specialist. We do expect a solid grounding in engineering fundamentals that we can build on. Essential: • Degree in Mechanical Engineering, Chemical Engineering, Process Engineering, or closely related discipline, • Minimum 3 years' post-graduation engineering experience (does not need to be in ventilation, • process engineering, chemical plant, risk assessment, building services, or similar are equally relevant), • Working knowledge of fluid dynamics, thermodynamics, and heat transfer applied in a professional setting, • Strong written English and the ability to produce clear, structured technical reports, • Full UK driving licence, • UK right to work Desirable: • Experience with risk assessment methodologies (HAZOP, DSEAR, COSHH, or similar), • Exposure to consultancy or client-facing technical roles, • Professional registration or working toward CEng/IEng, • Competence with CAD software (AutoCAD, Revit, or similar) THE KIND OF ENGINEER WHO DOES WELL HERE Our environment is different from a large consultancy. There's no layer of project managers between you and the client. You won't have a team of 20 around you. What you will have is direct responsibility, genuine autonomy, and senior engineers who will invest time in your development. Our most successful engineers share certain qualities: they take ownership of problems without waiting to be told, they communicate clearly under pressure, they're motivated by the quality of their work rather than their job title, and they have the patience to develop genuine expertise in a specialist discipline. Our most successful hires have come from a range of backgrounds including chemical engineering, process engineering, and mechanical engineering. What matters more than your specific discipline is how you think, how you communicate, and whether you take pride in producing work that stands up to scrutiny. WHAT WE OFFER • £42,000 – £48,000 depending on experience, • Fully remote working with UK-wide site visits, • Structured development programme with senior engineer mentoring, • Funded CPD and professional development (training courses, BOHS qualifications, chartership support) 22 days annual leave plus bank holidays, increasing to 25 at the next grade, • Pension with employer contribution, • Travel expenses for site visits fully reimbursed, • A specialist consultancy where your engineering skills are the product, not a support function HOW TO APPLY Please submit your CV and a brief covering statement (no more than 300 words) explaining why this role interests you and what you would bring to MECHON. We are particularly interested in the breadth of your professional experience and how you approach unfamiliar technical problems. We don't use automated screening. Every application is reviewed by the team.
