Job Description Summary

Are you ready to help shape the future of intelligent automation in one of the UK’s largest organisations? We’re looking for a senior-level Technical Application Specialist to join our Intelligent Process Automation team, where we’re scaling agentic AI capabilities across the Group.

This is a fast-moving, innovative space - and we’re building the processes as we go. You’ll work at the intersection of AI agents and tooling, helping us connect and orchestrate automation in a way that’s resilient, scalable and impactful. If you thrive in ambiguity, enjoy solving complex problems, and want to be part of something transformative, this could be the role for you.

What you’ll be doing

  • Lead the technical delivery of automation solutions using Python and GCP
  • Design and implement scalable systems that connect AI agents with internal tooling
  • Collaborate across teams to identify opportunities for process and technology modernisation
  • Conduct root cause analysis and contribute to incident resolution
  • Define and adapt specialised services to meet evolving customer and business needs
  • Contribute to the development of technical strategies and automation frameworks
  • Represent the team in cross-functional meetings and help shape best practices
  • Mentor junior engineers and contribute to thought leadership across the organisation

Essential skills and experience

  • Strong software engineering background, with expertise in Python and cloud platforms (GCP preferred)
  • Experience designing and implementing automation solutions in complex environments
  • Ability to work independently and lead technical delivery in ambiguous settings
  • Strong problem-solving skills and a collaborative mindset
  • Familiarity with agentic AI concepts and orchestration of tooling

And any experience of these would be really useful

  • Experience contributing to strategic planning or proof-of-concept initiatives
  • Knowledge of IT security policies and implementation
  • Exposure to knowledge management and performance management systems
  • Experience mentoring or coaching others in technical domains

About working for us

We’re committed to building an inclusive organisation that reflects modern society. We welcome applications from all backgrounds and offer support through reasonable adjustments if needed.

We also offer a wide-ranging benefits package, which includes

  • A generous pension contribution of up to 15%
  • An annual performance-related bonus
  • Share schemes including free shares
  • Benefits you can adapt to your lifestyle
  • 30 days’ holiday, plus bank holidays
  • Wellbeing initiatives and generous parental leave policies

At Lloyds Banking Group, we're driven by a clear purpose; to help Britain prosper. Across the Group, our colleagues are focused on making a difference to customers, businesses and communities. With us you'll have a key role to play in shaping the financial services of the future, whilst the scale and reach of our Group means you'll have many opportunities to learn, grow and develop.

We keep your data safe. So, we'll only ever ask you to provide confidential or sensitive information once you have formally been invited along to an interview or accepted a verbal offer to join us which is when we run our background checks. We'll always explain what we need and why, with any request coming from a trusted Lloyds Banking Group person.

We're focused on creating a values-led culture and are committed to building a workforce which reflects the diversity of the customers and communities we serve. Together we’re building a truly inclusive workplace where all of our colleagues have the opportunity to make a real difference.
