Wesfarmers OneDigital is building Australia's leading data and digital retail ecosystem, underpinned by AI across everything we do. We operate across four pillars - loyalty, data, retail media and AI, turning millions of customer interactions into insights that shape how Australians shop, live and connect.
We're expanding one of our most innovative teams and are looking for exceptional talent to join the AI Build Squad to help our divisions make the most of emerging technologies.
This is your chance to help build cutting-edge AI solutions that reach millions of customers across Australia's leading retailers. You'll work at the forefront of emerging technologies, solve complex business challenges, and help accelerate our AI transformation journey.
The Senior Agentic Business Lead operates across the full lifecycle of business AI adoption: understanding current processes and pain points, identifying where AI tooling can add value, sourcing or building solutions, and supporting teams through adoption.

The role works closely with the Change Manager on adoption and behaviour change, and with the AI Enablement Lead on opportunities related to personal productivity tools.

- Proactively identify business process transformation opportunities where AI tooling can drive meaningful value
- Evaluate, recommend, and procure AI solutions for business functions — conducting vendor assessments, building business cases, and managing procurement processes
- Partner with the Senior AI Engineer when opportunities require custom-built solutions rather than commercial products
- Support business teams through adoption of new AI tooling, working closely with the Change Manager on behaviour change and embedding
