Evident is an intelligence platform that benchmarks and tracks AI adoption across the financial services sector. Since the launch of our flagship product in January 2023, the Evident AI Index has rapidly become the global standard benchmark for AI maturity in banking.

The Evident AI Index forms the basis of our benchmarking products, which help companies to understand their ranking in relation to peers and to accelerate their AI strategy. The Client Delivery team, sitting at the core of Evident's value proposition to clients, is responsible for delivering bespoke benchmarking analysis to clients and shaping the strategy of our benchmarking products.

We are seeking sharp, analytical and strategically minded individuals who are interested in working with C-Suite decision makers at the world's largest financial institutions to shape AI strategies.
