About the role We are seeking an experienced and commercially aware Cluster Technical Manager to build and lead a newly established Cluster Technical function within our Design & Innovation (D&I) team. This is a rare opportunity to shape a function from the ground up - defining how it operates, how it engages with customers, and how it delivers value across nine manufacturing sites. Reporting to the Retail D&I Manager, you will lead a team of four Cluster Technical Specialists providing customer-facing technical expertise, complaint prevention, technical intelligence, and continuous improvement support. Each Specialist is aligned to specific sites and works on a hybrid basis, so you will be leading a geographically dispersed team - connecting the cluster picture, driving consistency, and ensuring the function's preventative purpose is protected. This is a strategic leadership role combining technical excellence, customer engagement, data-driven decision-making, and people leadership. You will shape and deploy the cluster technical strategy while ensuring a proactive approach to technical risk, customer performance, and operational consistency. You will act as the key technical escalation point for significant, recurring, or cross-site issues, whilst maintaining clear ownership boundaries whereby site quality issues remain the responsibility of local Quality and Production teams. Responsibilities Technical Strategy & Governance Define and deploy the cluster technical strategy, aligned to D&I, Quality and Packaging Division priorities. Own customer technical governance, establishing structured technical reviews with key customers that complement rather than duplicate existing Innovation and Quality processes. Own the escalation matrix and decision-rights framework, acting as escalation point for significant, recurring or cross-site technical issues. Own the function's KPI framework, monthly performance reviews and cluster-level trend reporting to D&I, Operations and Sales leadership. Leadership & Team Development Lead, coach and develop four Cluster Technical Specialists across a geographically dispersed cluster; own resource planning, site and customer allocation, and workload balancing. Protect the team's proactive purpose - managing the balance of preventative versus reactive work so prevention is not crowded out by firefighting. Embed consistent structured problem-solving standards (8D, RCA) and build technical capability, succession and development plans. Customer & Stakeholder Management Build strong relationships with customers, Cluster Director and MDs, Site General Managers, Site Quality Managers, Innovation and Sales leadership. Ensure clean, documented handoffs between the Technical team and site Quality and Production, with ownership boundaries respected and issue status visible to all parties. Own cluster-level technical relationships with external suppliers including forme makers, print plate and tooling suppliers. Champion the function internally so Sales, Innovation and site teams understand how and when to engage it. Insight, Improvement & Consistency Aggregate cross-site and cross-customer trend analysis, converting recurring themes into structured prevention and improvement programmes. Ensure the team's involvement in the internal and customer trials programme is planned and prioritised, providing technical insight and data to support it; ownership of trial execution and product conformance remains with site Production and Quality teams. Ensure learnings are captured and deployed across sites. Drive the standardisation and product simplification agenda across the cluster, reducing unnecessary complexity. Ensure structured technical feedback loops into Design, Innovation and Quality strategy. Sustainability Champion circular design principles and sustainable packaging solutions. Promote a right-first-time culture that reduces waste, rework and manufacturing inefficiency. About you Essential Extensive experience (typically 8+ years) in corrugated or packaging manufacturing across production, quality, technical or design disciplines. Deep understanding of corrugated manufacturing processes, covering both corrugator and conversion. Proven leadership experience, ideally including geographically dispersed or field-based teams. Track record of delivering measurable performance improvement in customer-facing technical, quality or continuous improvement roles. Strong customer-facing and stakeholder management skills, with the ability to influence at senior level in a matrix organisation. Experience using structured problem-solving tools such as 8D and Root Cause Analysis (RCA). Strong analytical skills and the ability to turn technical data into insight that drives decisions. Ability to manage multiple priorities across sites, customers and functions. Desirable Degree in Packaging Technology, Engineering, Materials Science, Manufacturing, Chemistry or a related discipline - or equivalent vocational experience. Six Sigma Green or Black Belt, or equivalent continuous improvement qualification. Working knowledge of ISO 9001 and BRCGS Packaging Materials and their application in a packaging environment. Experience in Technical, Quality, Design or Innovation roles within packaging. Understanding of print, tooling and packaging production technologies. Experience supporting product development, trials and material implementation. Familiarity with ERP, QMS and CRM systems. Knowledge of sustainability and circular economy principles. Location and travel Location: Field-based, managing a team covering the cluster's nine UK sites - Devizes, Fordham, Louth, Belper, Featherstone, Burscough, Neath, Lockerbie and Livingston - and key customer locations. Travel is expected to be approximately 40-50% of your time, including overnight stays, with home-based working in between. You will hold a close working relationship with one cluster site, agreed on appointment. Hours: Monday to Friday, full time. Full UK driving licence require d. Given the geographic spread of the cluster, a central location would be advantageous, though we welcome applications from candidates across the UK who are comfortable with regular national travel. Our values We are looking for someone who can demonstrate how our corporate values are applied in the workplace: Caring, Challenging, Trusted, Responsive and Tenacious. Benefits Competitive salary Pension scheme, life assurance and income protection Employee Assistance Programme 25 days' holiday plus bank holidays Cycle to work scheme Employee discounts About us We are DS Smith.

Role: AI Architect Reports to: Chief AI Officer (line management) Location in structure: AI/Data architecture area — embedded within the delivery area it serves, line-managing centrally to the Chief AI Officer Experience: Senior — 6+ years in software, data, or platform engineering/architecture, with meaningful hands-on time on production AI systems, not just pilots Direct reports: None. Influence comes from judgement and presence in the right conversations, not headcount. AI decisions at Citation now cut across Product, Engineering, Security, Infrastructure, and the Business simultaneously — model selection, data architecture, cost, and risk are no longer separable concerns. Without a dedicated architectural owner, each initiative makes these calls independently: patterns diverge, risk goes unspotted until it's expensive, and nobody owns the AI-specific decisions that don't belong wholly to any one function. This isn't a hypothetical gap. Much of this work is already happening informally inside Citation's AI delivery — reviewing partner Statements of Work, governing what goes through Code Factory, acting as the practical architectural voice on live builds. This role formalises that into a mandate with the standing and scope it needs. The AI Architect is Citation's dedicated architect for the AI/Data area, sitting alongside the architects covering Human Resources, Business Systems, Health & Safety, eLearning, Verification, Certification, and Atlas Platform: embedded in the delivery area it serves day to day, but line-managing centrally to the Chief AI Officer so its calls hold across the business, not just the team it happens to sit nearest to. The architecture hub owns target-state and standards across the whole architecture function; this role owns the AI-specific application of it, escalating decisions with consequences beyond AI/Data to the Architecture Review Board rather than deciding them alone. The clearest sign this role is working: AI initiatives at Citation start well and stay on track architecturally. In practice that means: • Established patterns are the default starting point for new builds, not something teams discover after the fact, • Design questions are resolved before Engineering starts building, not during or after, • Third-party Statements of Work are assessed architecturally before they're signed, • Model and hosting choices are made against a documented decision framework, not habit or vendor pressure, • Token spend and cost-per-outcome are tracked and explainable, not a surprise on the invoice, • Security is involved in every significant initiative from the start, not introduced at the end, • Leadership has a current, accurate view of AI architectural risk and direction, with no significant surprises Architectural standards and patterns Own the design patterns Citation builds its AI systems to: retrieval and grounding approaches for systems that need Citation's own knowledge rather than a model's general training, agent orchestration patterns and tool-calling conventions for multi-step and multi-agent work, prompt construction and guardrail design, and the routing logic that decides which model handles which step. Keep these current as the landscape moves, and write decisions down in a form Engineering and Product can actually build against — architecture decision records, not a slide deck. Align standards to Citation's five-layer AI platform architecture. Hold a documented, evidence-based framework for choosing between closed frontier models accessed through a provider's API (Anthropic, OpenAI, Google) and open-weight models run on Citation's own infrastructure (Llama, Mistral, Qwen and similar) — and apply it per workload, not as a single blanket choice. The framework should weigh: • Task complexity — complex reasoning and long‑horizon agentic work generally favour frontier closed models; simpler classification, extraction, and templated generation are often better served by smaller open-weight models at a fraction of the cost, • Volume and cost at scale — at high token volumes, self‑hosting open-weight models can cross into materially cheaper territory; this role owns the analysis of where that break‑even sits for Citation's actual workloads, not a generic industry number, • Data sensitivity and residency — for HR, employment, and compliance data, self‑hosting open-weight models remove a class of third‑party data‑sharing risk that closed providers (even with strong contractual terms) don't fully eliminate, • Fine‑tuning and customisation — where an open-weight model fine‑tuned on Citation's own data would outperform a general‑purpose model at lower running cost, that's a build case this role should be able to make with evidence, not intuition, • Latency, licensing, and total cost of ownership — including the practical overhead of running and maintaining your own models, not just the sticker price of tokens Understand and actively manage the unit economics of every AI solution recommended, including: • Modelling likely token cost at design time, before a system is built, so the business knows what it's signing up for, • Specifying model routing (cheaper models for simpler steps, frontier models reserved for what actually needs them), prompt and context engineering for efficiency, and caching where appropriate, • Recognising that agentic and multi‑agent patterns can multiply token consumption several‑fold over a single well‑scoped call, and that orchestration‑pattern choice is itself a cost decision, • Setting up the observability to track cost‑per‑outcome and cache performance over time, not just the total spend line Assess whether the data behind any AI initiative is structured, accessible, and reliable enough to support the intended behaviour — across Citation's Salesforce, Atlas, Snowflake, and integration layers — and flag readiness issues before they become delivery blockers. Hold the approval path for new AI architectural patterns and material departures from existing standards. Attend initiative design conversations early enough to shape them, not just review them, and sign off on the AI design elements of partner Statements of Work. Define scope and success criteria for AI spikes and proofs of concept before they start, validate vendor and partner capability claims before they're embedded in a committed design, and make sure proof‑of‑concept outputs are evaluated against real delivery constraints — not vendor demo conditions. Act as the internal architectural counterpart to Citation's delivery partners, the way any enterprise architecture function holds its critical vendors to a defined standard: review proposals and Statements of Work before commitments are made, run design reviews during delivery, and give partners a well‑defined target with technical challenge where their decisions need scrutiny. Set the standard for how AI systems are monitored and evaluated once live — offline and online evaluation, drift detection, guardrails — and own the response framework for AI incidents in production, alongside the cost governance described above.
