Description de la mission

Location:
Flexible within Asia (preferably in a major hub like Singapore, Shanghai, Bangalore, or Seoul) or willing to travel frequently across the region.

Reporting Line:
Matrix reporting to both the Chief AI Officer (CAIO), and the Regional Director for Asia.

Mission Statement:
The AI Global Asia Manager will act as the strategic and operational bridge between ALTEN’s central AI team and its Asian operations, ensuring scalable adoption, localization, and business impact of AI initiatives across India, Vietnam, Korea, Japan, and China. This role is critical to translating global AI strategies into tangible business outcomes, while overcoming regional challenges—such as language barriers, cultural nuances, time zones, and local regulations.
The manager will empower local AI Ambassadors, foster cross-regional collaboration, drive operational excellence in AI projects, and align AI solutions with client needs to maximize impact and innovation.

Responsibility:
Stakeholder Alignment
Serve as the primary liaison between the central AI team (France) and Asian Ambassadors, ensuring clear communication and alignment despite time zone differences.
Partner with sales and delivery teams to identify and prioritize high-value AI opportunities for clients.
Ambassador Support
Provide operational and strategic support to AI Ambassadors and help prioritize high-impact AI use cases.
Train and coach Ambassadors on AI-driven process optimization, data modeling, and client-facing use cases.
Feedback Loop
Gather insights from the region to inform central team priorities and decisions, ensuring global policies are practical and relevant for Asia.
Translate regional business needs into actionable AI roadmaps for ALTEN’s clients.
Pilot Programs
Lead pilot projects to test and refine AI deployment strategies, then scale successes across the region.
Focus on quick wins and ROI demonstration to accelerate client adoption.
Compliance
Work with legal and IT teams to ensure AI tools comply with local regulations (e.g., China’s Cybersecurity Law, Japan’s data privacy rules).
Performance Tracking
Monitor regional KPIs (e.g., tool adoption, training completion, business impact) and report progress to the central team.
Cultural Bridge
Facilitate cross-cultural understanding between the central team and Asian stakeholders.
Adapt AI solutions to local business practices and client expectations
Localization
Drive the adaptation of global AI policies, tools, and training materials to fit local languages, cultures, and regulatory environments (e.g., data residency in China, language support in Vietnam).
Business Development
Support delivery teams in integrating AI components into existing projects to improve cost, quality, and efficiency. Collaborate with pre-sales teams to co-design client proposals and demonstrate ALTEN’s AI capabilities
