Shape Technology. Influence Strategy. Make a Difference.
We are partnering with a unique and purpose-driven organisation that is using technology to make a meaningful impact across Europe. They are seeking a Director of Technology to work directly with the CEO and leadership team, taking ownership of the organisation's technology strategy, architecture and vendor ecosystem.
This is a rare opportunity to join a business where technology sits at the heart of the mission. The organisation operates with a highly collaborative and entrepreneurial culture, where every employee is accessible, ideas are encouraged, and decisions are made quickly. Importantly, they are looking for someone who is excited by their mission and wants to contribute to an organisation focused on making a positive difference, not just running technology for technology's sake.
This role would suit an established Technology Director, Head of Technology, CTO or a high-potential technology leader looking to take the next step into their first Director-level position.
Key Responsibilities
- Develop and deliver the organisation's technology strategy and roadmap.
- Act as the primary technology advisor to the CEO and leadership team.
- Review and assess the current technology landscape, platforms and operating model.
- Lead strategic vendor and supplier relationships, ensuring service quality, value and alignment with business goals.
- Provide oversight of technology architecture, cloud platforms, business systems and security.
- Evaluate future technology investments and support strategic decision-making.
- Drive continuous improvement across technology processes, governance and delivery.
- Support the ongoing evolution of the organisation's CRM, customer-facing platforms and digital services.
- Ensure technology remains scalable, secure and capable of supporting future growth.
About You
- We're open to a range of backgrounds, but successful candidates are likely to demonstrate:
- Experience developing and delivering technology strategies and roadmaps.
- Strong vendor, supplier or outsourced partner management experience.
- Excellent stakeholder management skills, with the ability to influence senior leadership.
- Broad understanding of technology architecture, cloud platforms and modern technology environments.
- Experience managing technology budgets, contracts and investment decisions.
- A commercially minded approach to technology leadership.
- Genuine passion for building long-term solutions rather than making short-term fixes.
- Broad technical knowledge spanning infrastructure, cloud, cybersecurity, software development, AI, data and enterprise applications.
- Experience within a SaaS, technology-enabled, digital platform or high-growth business would be particularly advantageous.
