This is an excellent opportunity for a technology leader who can bring structure to complex programmes while maintaining a clear view of long-term business and architectural goals.

Key Responsibilities

• Coordinate Architecture, Engineering, Infrastructure, Security, and Business teams;
• Align technology investments with corporate objectives and architecture roadmaps;
• Support application-modernisation and cloud-transformation initiatives;
• Establish and maintain programme governance and strategic planning processes;
• Manage budgets, resources, schedules, dependencies, risks, and delivery milestones;
• Monitor programme progress and communicate outcomes to executive stakeholders;
• Facilitate strategic decisions and resolve cross-functional delivery challenges;
• Identify programme risks and coordinate mitigation plans;
• Ensure transparency across priorities, dependencies, and resource allocation;
• Promote collaboration between technology and business stakeholders;
• Contribute to continuous improvement in governance and programme delivery.

Essential Requirements

• Solid experience managing technology projects or programmes;
• Experience leading initiatives related to enterprise architecture, technology strategy, or digital transformation;
• Track record of coordinating complex, large-scale technology programmes;
• Practical knowledge of governance, strategic planning, risk management, budgeting, and resource allocation;
• Experience coordinating multidisciplinary technology and business teams;
• Familiarity with application-modernisation or cloud-transformation initiatives;
• Ability to connect business objectives with technology and architecture roadmaps;
• Strong executive communication and stakeholder-management skills;
• Advanced English for professional communication with global teams;
• Strong organisation, leadership, negotiation, and problem-solving abilities.

Nice-to-Have Qualifications

These qualifications are valuable but not mandatory:

• Experience in Financial Services;
• Professional background in banking, fintech, insurance, Asset Management, or Wealth Management;
• Previous experience with a global consulting organisation;
• Experience working with international or geographically distributed teams;
• Exposure to enterprise-architecture governance;
• Participation in large-scale business or technology transformation programmes.

• Understand enterprise architecture well enough to facilitate informed decisions;
• Translate strategic objectives into practical roadmaps and delivery plans;
• Communicate effectively with architects, engineers, business leaders, and executives;
• Identify risks, dependencies, and resource constraints early;
• Balance delivery priorities with long-term architectural goals;
• Build alignment across teams with different perspectives and responsibilities;
• Make decisions using clear evidence and transparent trade-offs;
• Maintain momentum while protecting quality and governance standards;
• Take ownership of outcomes rather than focusing only on schedules.
