AI Ethicist

Human-First Artificial Intelligence

Why Access & AI

From how captions appear on videos, to the loans we’re offered, the CVs that make it to interview or how autonomous cars know where to find a drop curb. AI is shaping decisions across every industry. Including who gets access and who gets left behind.

As an AI ethicist, my role is to question how these systems are designed and used, helping organisations make sure they are fair, transparent, accessible and work for people.

Meet Rachael

Rachael Mole CF (she/her) is an accessibility and artificial intelligence specialist, advisor and speaker, working with CEOs, senior leadership teams, boards, and policy officials across industries on AI, risk, strategy, and system design.

Her work focuses on how technology is shaping the way we access everyday life, from transport and education to employment, financial services, cultural spaces, and care. She specialises in the intersection of policy, systems change, and lived experience, supporting organisations to move beyond surface-level inclusion into systems, services, and workplaces that are designed to work for everyone.

Rachael is the founder of Moleworks Solutions, a research and consultancy practice supporting organisations to adopt AI responsibly, design inclusive systems, and embed accessibility into how they operate and grow. She leads More Than Reasonable, one of the UK’s most comprehensive and timely research and resource projects exploring the future of workplace adjustments, with a strong focus on AI and evolving ways of working.

She was awarded a Churchill Fellowship for her international research on inclusive work cultures and innovation, and has published extensive social research on how organisations can better support disabled people in the workplace. Rachael also serves on the Disabled Persons Transport Advisory Committee, a Secretary of State appointment, where she advises the UK Government on accessibility and emerging challenges across the transport system.

Her work has been recognised through inclusion in the UK’s Top 100 Female Entrepreneurs (Small Business Britain), and she has been invited to contribute to national and international conversations on disability, AI, and equity, including speaking at the United Nations and contributing to cross-sector policy discussions.

Alongside her consultancy and research work, she speaks, writes, and collaborates on research, pilots, and system change projects, contributing to a growing national conversation on accessibility and the role of AI in shaping more inclusive futures.

Her mission is to make accessible, inclusive societies the default, not the exception, by shaping how organisations adopt AI, design systems, and deliver work so that more people can participate, contribute, and thrive.
