This is an opportunity to shape the future of technology delivery, moving beyond traditional project-based approaches and embedding a more agile, product-centric and outcome-driven operating model.
You'll have the opportunity to influence how technology investments are prioritised, how products are developed and delivered, and how teams work together to achieve strategic business objectives.

Shape strategic priorities: Take ownership of demand management, portfolio governance and investment prioritisation, balancing business objectives with delivery capacity and available resources.
Build product management capabilities: Establish and develop product management practices, translating strategies and roadmaps into prioritised backlogs, delivery plans and measurable outcomes.
Drive enterprise-wide delivery: Provide leadership across Digital Workplace, Cloud & Infrastructure, Networks & Connectivity and Digital Platform Enablement.
Transform ways of working: Lead the shift from traditional waterfall and project-based delivery towards agile, product-centric and continuous delivery practices.
Modernise governance: Implement frameworks that improve transparency, accountability, investment decisions and benefits realisation.
Connect the dots: Drive integrated planning, cross-functional collaboration, dependency management and delivery orchestration across multiple technology domains.
Lead transformation programmes: Oversee strategic initiatives, organisational change, programme assurance and benefits realisation.
Develop high-performing teams: Lead and inspire Agile Delivery Managers, Scrum Masters, Agile Coaches and programme delivery professionals.
Drive continuous improvement: Establish clear performance measures and value management frameworks to ensure delivery remains focused on business outcomes.
What we're looking for
You'll bring significant experience leading technology delivery at scale, ideally within a complex, multinational enterprise environment.
In particular, you'll have:
Extensive experience leading large-scale technology delivery organisations supporting tens of thousands of users across multiple geographies.
A strong track record across both traditional programme delivery and modern agile product delivery.
Experience establishing and scaling Product Management capabilities within technology organisations.
Deep expertise in portfolio management, demand management, prioritisation and investment governance.
Experience developing outcome-driven prioritisation, value management and benefits realisation frameworks.
Experience managing complex technology portfolios spanning multiple domains and business functions.
A proven track record leading post-acquisition integration programmes, coordinating planning, governance and delivery across multiple workstreams.

The ability to influence and engage senior stakeholders across large, federated organisations.
Experience leading internal teams and managing external delivery partners.
The ability to balance strong governance with the flexibility and pace required to deliver meaningful change.
The kind of leader you'll be
Technical knowledge and delivery experience are important, but we're equally interested in how you lead.
You'll be someone who:
Thinks beyond technology functions and understands the bigger business picture.
Is genuinely customer-focused and commercially aware.
Builds credibility with engineers, architects, delivery teams and senior business leaders alike.
Leads through influence, collaboration and clear direction.
Isn't afraid to challenge established ways of working and question the status quo.
