"Technology transformation for a €5billion programme is not about the technology but more about applied thought.  Applied thought without an end state or deliverable is as useful as a chocolate fireguard." Our client.

Transforming the application of a technology roadmap to a business deliverable for a €5billion programme is the challenge - one which requires knowledge of the past, present & future of IT, but more importantly an understanding of how to articulate vision at board level. The key to this is language: the IT industry have created a labyrinth of gobbledegook that business leaders don’t understand and don’t want to understand.

Our client wants a “player” to lead on the above programme, delivering strategy, roadmaps, blueprints etc using the language of business and not of IT.

• A senior technology management consultant by trade
• A brain that can matrixise complex IT solutions on a global scale
• SAAS mindset and delivery experience, without gadgetry
• Breadth of solutioning experience across the architecture lenses: ERP/IM/infrastructure/SI/security & bespoke solutions
• Current role may be in a €1billion plus budget environment as CTO/Chief Architect/Head of Enterprise Architecture or Technology Strategy Director
• Commercial director who can map third party vision with own vision to augment business functions

This is one of the most innovative companies in the world where “applied thought” is rewarded, solutions excellence is rewarded, commonsense is rewarded, passion with content is rewarded, humour is rewarded and your career aspirations can actually be achieved. Finally, if you need to be told what to do then this is not the company for you.
