A new leadership role with the opportunity to influence and shape the function.

Our client is a highly respected, well-known customer-facing organisation with a large and loyal customer base across the UK. They're building a modern technology function and have created this new Head of Applications & Data role to lead a key part of it.

You'll own the systems that matter most: customer-facing platforms, core business applications and the data that connects them. You'll also build a small, brand-new team around you.

What's in it for you

• A new function to shape your way, with the autonomy to make it work.

• A strong pipeline of major platform and data projects over the next two years.

• A seat on the technology leadership team, influencing strategy and architecture.

• The chance to treat systems as products, with clear roadmaps, strong vendor partnerships and real value.

You'll enjoy this if…

• you've led applications, digital products or data and like getting the most from SaaS platforms

• you enjoy building teams and bringing people with you

• you get a buzz from turning technology into something the whole business values
