Task-by-Task Breakdown

Every task scored individually — sorted highest to lowest AI exposure

78

checks customers’ credit rating with banks and credit reference agencies, and decides whether to offer credit

AI Automates

AI credit scoring models (e.g., Experian's AI tools, Zest AI) can rapidly aggregate bureau data, assess risk, and generate credit recommendations, with humans mainly reviewing edge cases and final approvals.

67

establishes terms of credit and ensures timely payment by customer, renegotiates payment terms and initiates legal action to recover debts if necessary

AI Assists

AI can automate payment reminders, flag overdue accounts, and draft renegotiation correspondence, but legal escalation decisions and sensitive debtor negotiations require human judgment and legal expertise.

56

develops and manages business accounts to increase sales of financial products

AI Assists

AI tools like Salesforce Einstein or HubSpot AI can analyse client data to identify upsell opportunities and flag at-risk accounts, but relationship-building and strategic negotiation remain human-led.

56

takes responsibility for the efficient and effective operation of several business accounts

AI Assists

AI-powered dashboards (e.g., Power BI Copilot) can monitor account performance, flag anomalies, and generate status reports, but accountability, client communication, and exception handling require human judgment.

56

manages teams handling insurance claims

AI Assists

AI claims management platforms (e.g., Guidewire, Shift Technology) can triage, detect fraud, and automate routine claims processing, but complex or disputed claims still require human oversight and team management.

The portion of your current salary tied to tasks AI can automate or augment. Not a prediction of job loss — a signal of where your role is changing fastest.

How is this calculated?▾

Task weights — each task is weighted by its O*NET frequency rating. Where frequency data is absent, equal weighting is applied.

AI time reduction — tasks scored as "AI Automates" assume 80% time saving; "AI Assists" assumes 40%; "Human-Led" assumes 5%.

Salary equivalent — annual hours saved × (salary ÷ 1,800 working hours/year).

Value at risk — salary × share of role time in AI-automate or AI-assist tasks.

Figures are indicative estimates for planning purposes, not guarantees of productivity gain or job loss risk.
