Lichenai, Operations

Business Analyst at Lichenai

Location
London, United Kingdom
Compensation
"£100k"

Lichenai is looking for a Business Analyst to bridge the gap between elite consulting and AI deployment. Founded by experts from Cambridge HCI research and Amazon Alexa AI, this London-based team offers £100k total compensation and the chance to own product-shaping analysis end-to-end.

You will trade the rigidity of traditional consultancy for the speed and autonomy of an early-stage startup, mapping complex organizations to drive real-world AI adoption. If you are a hands-on analyst from a top-tier firm like McKinsey or Goldman Sachs ready to build rather than just advise, join us in London to shape the future of company intelligence.

What you will do

  • Pull, clean, and reconcile complex company data across diverse sources to build structured pictures of organizations and market landscapes.
  • Identify and prioritize high-value AI use cases by mapping competitor landscapes, internal business processes, and organizational structures.
  • Guide non-technical senior stakeholders through the end-to-end journey of actual AI deployment, providing crisp analysis and hands-on implementation support.

Who this is a fit for

  • Has a few years of experience in structured company analysis at a premier firm like McKinsey, Bain, Deloitte, or Goldman Sachs.
  • Demonstrates a genuine orientation toward AI adoption, with a desire to see organizations actually deploy technology rather than just discussing it.
  • Is comfortable being hands-on with data analysis and research rather than managing a team, thriving in an autonomous, fast-paced environment.

Why this role is remarkable

  • Work directly alongside a high-pedigree founding team with backgrounds in Cambridge HCI research, Amazon Alexa AI, and national AI policy.
  • Trade the rigid hierarchy and slide-deck culture of traditional consulting for total autonomy and the speed of an early-stage startup.
  • Directly shape a core product by applying top-tier analytical craft to real-world AI deployment rather than just theoretical strategy.
