Strategic Projects Lead

Project A is a European early-stage investor with EUR 1.2bn under management, behind Trade Republic, sennder and Quantum Systems. The role pairs classic chief of staff work with driving how the firm itself adopts AI internally. It suits a strategist who wants to see how a venture firm works from the inside and has opinions about where AI actually helps.

PhysicsX came out of numerical physics and Formula One, and builds AI simulation software for aerospace, defence and manufacturing. The role runs strategy and cross-functional programmes in a company where most colleagues are deep engineering specialists. It suits a generalist comfortable being the least technical person in a very technical room and still being useful.

Backed by up to £500 million, this fund exists to turn UK AI startups into national champions and strengthen sovereign capability. An Operating Partner works hands-on with those companies rather than just writing cheques. It suits a strategist who finds the collision of technology, capital and geopolitics genuinely interesting.

King & Partners builds brands across hospitality, lifestyle and real estate, working on strategy, branding and campaigns. This role sits where strategy, marketing and new business meet, shaping how the agency presents itself to prospective clients. It suits a strategist who is as comfortable pitching the work as doing it.
