In this role you will support the Digital Workplace team in the roll out and day to day coordination of Macmillan’s productivity AI tool – Copilot. You will play an instrumental role in coordinating the operational delivery and administration of Copilot, working closely with our external specialist implementation partner and our internal L&D team to help colleagues adopt new ways of working by promoting effective, safe and responsible use of AI tools.
