Key responsibilities include:

What do I need?

This role calls for a leader with strong stakeholder engagement capabilities and a proven ability to influence senior executives and drive alignment across complex organisations. You will be comfortable operating at scale, bringing clarity and direction in environments that are fast‑moving, highly regulated and often ambiguous. You will bring extensive experience working in strategy, innovation, engineering or emerging technology environments, ideally within a large enterprise. A deep understanding of AI and emerging technologies is essential, alongside the ability to translate these capabilities into tangible business and customer value.

Key capabilities and experience include:

  • Proven leadership and enterprise‑level stakeholder management, including influencing senior executives
  • Strong experience building, leading and uplifting high‑performing teams and capabilities
  • Deep understanding of AI and emerging technologies, and how to apply them at scale
  • Comfort working in high‑ambiguity environments, using structured and strategic thinking to guide decisions
