Global Capability Centre UK Lead

About Radiant

Radiant builds and operates AI-native cloud platforms for high-performance GPU workloads. Our infrastructure brings together data centres, compute, networking, storage and software to serve customers with demanding AI requirements.

As we grow internationally, we are establishing Global Capability Centres (GCCs) in several regions. These centres will provide specialist capability and operational support to teams across Radiant. We need a clear model for how each centre is launched, managed and connected to the wider business.

About the role

The Global Capability Centre UK Lead will help design, launch and scale Radiant’s GCCs. You will work closely with local GCC leaders and UK teams across People, Legal, Finance, IT, Security and Operations.

Your job is to make sure each centre has a defined purpose, an effective team structure, practical ways of working and the support it needs to deliver. You will also act as a point of contact and advocate for GCC leaders in the UK, helping resolve issues that span multiple teams or locations.

This is a hands-on, cross-functional role. You will help shape the overall model while also dealing with the details that determine whether a new centre works well from day one.

What you’ll do:

Plan and launch GCCs

• Help assess potential locations based on talent availability, cost, time zones, regulation and operational needs.

• Define the remit of each centre with local and UK leaders. Clarify which work belongs in the GCC, which stays with existing teams and how responsibilities may change as the centre grows.

• Support launch plans, including the order in which centres and functions are established, key decisions, dependencies and transition milestones.

• Coordinate with Legal, Finance, People and Security on entity setup, employment arrangements, data residency and other local requirements.

Build teams and operating models

• Work with GCC leaders to design team structures, reporting lines and management layers that suit each stage of growth.

• Partner with Talent Acquisition on headcount plans, hiring priorities and the skills needed to deliver each centre’s remit.

• Align roles and career paths with Radiant’s global framework. Help local leaders plan for retention, succession and leadership development.
