Careers at Insight Circle

The hardest AI questions. Answered independently.

We're a small, senior team working with boards, audit committees and regulators.

Why join us

A small team, deliberately.

Insight Circle is built around a core team, not a large bench. Every hire owns a real piece of how the firm runs — assurance delivery, the technology behind it, or the operations that hold it together.

We keep headcount tight and lean on our independent AI Community for surge capacity, specialist skills and geographic reach. That means every full-time hire has scope, autonomy and a direct line to clients from day one.

How we work

Small core team, wide independent network.

Full-time roles set the standard and hold client relationships. Our vetted AI Community extends that capacity — brought in project by project, wherever the work needs specialist skills.

  • Direct client exposure from your first week
  • Work shaped around a small number of serious engagements
  • Access to a global bench of vetted independent AI talent

The six roles that run the firm

Full-time positions, based around our core practice. Each one is essential to how we deliver independent AI and data assurance.

01 · AI Systems Audit

Senior AI Assurance Lead

Leads independent audits of AI systems end to end — scoping against control objectives, testing design and operating effectiveness, and signing off the evidence a board and audit committee rely on.

02 · Model Validation

Model Risk & Validation Specialist

Independent challenge of ML and LLM models — conceptual soundness, performance and stability testing, evaluation integrity and back-testing against the intended use, in line with model risk standards such as PRA SS1/23.

03 · AI Risk & Controls

AI Risk & Controls Auditor

Maps AI use cases to risk taxonomies and control frameworks — ISO/IEC 42001, NIST AI RMF — and tests whether controls over data, change management, access and human oversight actually operate.

04 · AI Regulation

AI Regulatory Specialist

Turns the EU AI Act, GDPR automated decision-making, DORA and sector rules into testable requirements — risk classification, technical documentation, conformity evidence and post-market monitoring.

05 · Data Assurance

Data Lineage & Provenance Analyst

Tests the data behind the model — lineage, provenance, licensing, representativeness, bias and drift — and reconstructs the evidence trail from source system to model output.

06 · AI Testing Engineering

AI Assurance Engineering Lead

Builds the testing harnesses behind our audits — LLM red-teaming and adversarial evaluation, robustness and fairness test suites, and reproducible capture of audit evidence.
