About the Team

AI Enablement and Governance is a highly visible, cross-functional team responsible for establishing and enforcing AI governance frameworks, partnering closely with business and technology leaders to enable responsible, value-driven use of AI across Fitch. The team is refining processes using automation to efficiently guide stakeholders through risk-based AI governance workflows.

How You’ll Make an Impact:

  • Lead the end-to-end AI governance process for both internally developed and third-party AI solutions from experimentation through to production deployment. Implement automation and risk-based frameworks to enable adoption of AI rapidly and responsibly.
  • Develop and maintain standardized, transparent governance frameworks and best practices, ensuring AI adoption is ethical, well-controlled, and aligned with evolving regulatory requirements.
  • Partner closely with Legal, Compliance, Information Security, Technology, and business stakeholders to guide the responsible democratization and risk management of AI, particularly on agent-centric platforms.
  • Educate and advise stakeholders on governance best practices, ethical use, and risk mitigation, promoting process transparency and incorporating industry best practices and stakeholder feedback for ongoing improvement.
  • Support the successful delivery and change management of key Emerging Technology initiatives, ensuring alignment with business objectives and organizational priorities.

You May be a Good Fit if:

  • Bachelor’s degree in computer science, data science, information systems, business administration, economics, law, or a related field.
  • 5+ years in technology enablement, risk management, AI/ML solution development, or program management.
  • Proven track record of managing governance or risk processes.
  • Understanding of AI governance, risk management, ethical considerations, and regulatory compliance.

What Would Make You Stand Out:

  • Experience managing compliance with global AI regulations (e.g., EU AI Act), standards, and ethical considerations.
  • Self-starter with excellent interpersonal, communication, and facilitation skills; able to inspire and engage both technical and non-technical audiences.
  • Ability to manage change and influence in complex, cross-functional environments.

Why Choose Fitch:

  • Hybrid Work Environment: 2 to 3 days a week in office required based on your line of business and location
  • A Culture of Learning & Mobility: Dedicated trainings, leadership development and mentorship programs designed to ensure that your time at Fitch will be a continuous learning opportunity
  • Investing in Your Future: Retirement planning and tuition reimbursement programs that empower you to achieve your short and long-term goals
  • Promoting Health & Wellbeing: Comprehensive healthcare offerings that enable physical, mental, financial, social, and occupational wellbeing
  • Supportive Parenting Policies: Family-friendly policies, including a generous global parental leave plan, designed to help you balance career and family life effectively
  • Inclusive Work Environment : A collaborative workplace where all voices are valued, with Employee Resource Groups that unite and empower our colleagues around the globe
  • Dedication to Giving Back: Paid volunteer days, matched funding for donations and ample opportunities to volunteer in your community
