Role & Responsibilities

  • Define and prioritise the group AI portfolio in partnership with LVMH Digital Business and Maisons leadership, from opportunity framing through deployment and post‑scale optimisation.
  • Act as operational lead for the end‑to‑end lifecycle of prioritized AI projects across multiple Maisons—hands‑on for selected use cases and overseeing delivery for others.
  • Ensure production readiness of AI assets by coordinating requirements with business stakeholders, data teams, ML engineering, IT and security to enable robust deployment and integration.
  • Establish and enforce high delivery and quality standards (evaluation, monitoring, documentation, handover) and implement observability and continuous improvement loops including user feedback.
  • Embed ethical, regulatory and brand‑safe AI practices across projects in collaboration with compliance and legal stakeholders.
  • Design and evolve a scalable operating model (governance, playbooks, reusable assets) to ensure consistent delivery across Maisons and reduce duplication of effort.
  • Manage cross‑functional dependencies and align stakeholders across Data, Tech, IT and Business to drive frictionless AI asset rollouts.
  • Lead, develop and grow a team of 12+ data scientists and animate a broader Data Scientist community across the Group to accelerate best practice sharing and adoption.

Qualifications

  • Minimum 10 years of experience in AI, machine learning or data science, including at least 5 years in a leadership role.
  • Proven track record of delivering AI solutions at scale within complex, multi‑brand or global organisations.
  • Demonstrable experience managing high‑performing technical or data science teams and driving cross‑functional initiatives.
  • Strong applied expertise in modern machine learning (including LLMs) and experience deploying models to production.
  • Familiarity with LLM evaluation and human feedback methodologies; hands‑on experience with model monitoring and continuous improvement.
  • Practical knowledge of enterprise systems (ERP, BI, Supply Chain platforms) and cloud ML stacks is advantageous.
  • Fluent in English and French, both written and oral; excellent communication and storytelling skills to translate technical work into business impact.
  • Willingness to engage with LVMH LIFE360 Green IT practices and to incorporate environmental considerations in AI operations.
