About Communications & Media at Faculty

The communications and media industry is being rewired by AI at every layer — from the networks that carry data, to the platforms that recommend content, to the advertising models that fund it all. Telcos are under pressure to modernise ageing infrastructure while unlocking new B2B and enterprise revenue streams; broadcasters and streamers are fighting for attention in an over saturated market where subscriber loyalty can no longer be assumed;

and publishers and platforms alike are rethinking how content is created, personalised, and monetised in a world of shrinking attention spans and rising consumer expectations.

At Faculty, our Communications & Media team helps operators, broadcasters, publishers, and platforms turn this disruption into advantage. We apply AI to the problems that matter most to the sector: optimising network performance and cost, personalising customer experience at scale, reducing churn, building smarter recommendation and advertising engines, and giving leadership teams the confidence to make high‑stakes decisions with imperfect information.

We work shoulder‑to‑shoulder with our clients’ teams — combining deep technical expertise with a practical understanding of commercial pressures — to deliver AI that is safe, robust, and genuinely changes how these businesses operate and grow.

If you’re motivated by solving real, high‑impact problems in a fast‑moving industry, and want to help shape how AI transforms Communications and Media, this is the team for you.
