This position is based remotely in the United States. The Manager, AI Adoption, Global leads Vantage’s enterprise behavioral‑change engine, the team most directly responsible for turning AI capability into capability‑in‑use across the organization. Reporting to the Head of Artificial Intelligence, this role owns the Adoption pillar of the AI organization and leads a team of three accountable for building enterprise‑wide AI fluency and demand through education, a Champions network, and programmatic rollout.

• Lead, coach, and develop the AI Adoption team, setting strategy, priorities, and success metrics for the enterprise adoption engine.
• Own the enterprise AI education program, including AI Foundations, Responsible AI Governance training, and role‑based curricula delivered through the LMS, building the baseline fluency that makes everything else possible.
• Run certification rails that make governance understood and chosen across the enterprise rather than merely imposed, ensuring thousands of people understand responsible‑use policy well enough for it to stick.
• Execute structured enterprise rollouts using a cohort‑based, 30‑day activation‑sprint model, from the Champions Collective through successive departmental waves, with certification managed via Service Now.

• Track activation, certification, and sustained‑usage metrics, and route the signals surfaced to the Navigators team for embedded engagement.
• Partner with the Accelerators team to drive rollout, training, and sustained usage of every enterprise‑grade solution they ship, ensuring engineered capability translates into realized value rather than a shelved deployment.

• Set and manage the operating rhythm of the Adoption team, including planning, prioritization, and reporting of adoption outcomes to senior leadership.
• Design and continuously improve cohort‑based activation sprints, refining the playbook as the enterprise rollout scales across functions and regions.
• Recruit, enable, and recognize Champions, sustaining an engaged peer network that advocates for AI adoption within their own teams.
• Define and maintain the adoption metrics framework, and use activation, certification, and…
