We operate in a fully Agile, fast paced environment, with a strong focus on individual leadership talent and development through an integrated Excellency Framework to ensure every member of the team develops the very best leadership development for themselves whilst delivering business objectives in line with growing our Global Digital Brands.
This role is responsible for the successful delivery and operation of the organisation’s technology platforms and engineering capability. It ensures that technology programmes are executed effectively, engineering teams are high performing, and operational systems continue to meet business needs throughout a period of significant transformation.
The role provides leadership across software engineering, enterprise applications and major business systems, overseeing the transition from the current technology landscape to the organisation’s future operating model. It works closely with the SVP of Architecture, Data & AI to ensure all delivery aligns with approved technology strategy, architecture principles and transformation roadmaps.
Initially, the role will oversee IT Operations, ERP, Wholesale & Warehouse Systems, and Software Engineering. As organisational responsibilities transition to the parent company, the role will increasingly focus on two strategic delivery domains:
•
ERP Transformation (Retail Express → Infor M3)
•
Digital Engineering Transformation (Adobe Commerce → Shopify)
The role is deliberately focused on execution, delivery, operational excellence and engineering leadership rather than defining long-term technology strategy or enterprise architecture.
