AI support / enablement

AI support and enablement people help colleagues actually use AI well: choosing tools, writing plain guides, running training sessions, answering the daily questions. Most organisations have bought the technology and are still struggling to use it, so patient explainers are genuinely valuable. This is the most people facing role in the branch, and it suits teachers, trainers, support staff and anyone who enjoys helping others get unstuck. The honest challenge is meeting scepticism and worry with patience, week after week. The reward is watching confidence grow.

A day in this job

Your morning starts with the help queue: colleagues stuck on tools, unsure what is allowed, or worried they will break something. Mid morning you run a short hands on session for one team. In the afternoon you update the guides based on what confused people this week. You end by noting which questions keep coming up.

How AI is changing it

AI can draft the guides, the training slides and even the answers to common questions. What it cannot do is win over a worried colleague, read a room, or notice that someone is quietly struggling. Patience, trust and encouragement stay human.

What you need to start

People enter with a range of qualifications or relevant experience, often a degree or GCSEs and A levels with a vocational qualification. Training is usually given on the job.

Typical pay: £720 a week (about £37,400 a year).
Official UK pay for "IT user support technicians" (ONS ASHE 2022, via LMI for All). A guide, not a promise.

The steps, in order

  1. See the gap yourself Most teams own AI tools they barely use. Notice who around you is stuck; that gap is the job.
  2. Get confident with the tools You cannot help others until you are comfortable yourself, so use everyday AI assistants until nothing about them surprises you.
  3. Learn to teach and explain Free courses on training, coaching and writing clear guides give you the toolkit that purely technical people often lack.
  4. Run it where you are Volunteer to help your current team adopt one AI tool properly. Real adoption stories become your best evidence.
  5. Look at funded options Funded digital bootcamps and IT support apprenticeships can add formal weight to the practical experience you have built.
  6. Apply, then widen your reach Enablement roles are appearing fast. Once in, grow from helping one team to shaping how the whole organisation works.
