Chief Digital Officer
We are partnering with a major organisation undergoing a bold digital transformation. This is a rare opportunity for a visionary CDO to shape technology strategy, drive innovation, and deliver digital products that impact millions of people.
As CDO, you'll combine strategic foresight with hands-on leadership; working closely with senior stakeholders to align digital initiatives with broader organisational goals. You'll lead the development of cloud-first platforms, foster a product-centric culture, and ensure technology outcomes deliver measurable value.
Key Responsibilities
- Define and execute multi-year digital and ICT strategies aligned with organisational priorities
- Drive the shift from legacy/on-premise systems to modern, cloud-based platforms
- Champion a product-led approach, ensuring digital solutions enhance customer and citizen experience
- Partner with senior leadership to influence strategic direction and resolve complex challenges
- Build and mentor high-performing teams, empowering talent to innovate and deliver at scale
- Oversee large-scale ICT operations while ensuring cost efficiency, resilience, and security
- Act as a bridge between technology, business, and policy stakeholders to deliver end-to-end outcomes
What We're Looking For
- Graduate degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or related discipline
- 20+ years of ICT experience, including 10+ years in senior leadership roles
- Proven success in leading digital transformation and product development at scale
- Strong track record in cloud adoption, platform modernisation, and enterprise architecture
- Experience managing large teams (10+), with the ability to inspire and develop talent
- Commercial acumen: able to balance cost optimisation, revenue impact, and P&L considerations
- Hands-on curiosity; comfortable rolling up sleeves to understand products, code, or emerging tech
- Exceptional communication and influencing skills to navigate multi-stakeholder environments
Why This Role Stands Out
- Lead digital transformation at scale, impacting systems and services used nationwide
- Shape the future of digital products in a mission-driven environment
- Work with diverse stakeholders across industries and sectors
- Enjoy a flexible, trust-based work culture with hybrid arrangements
- Access robust learning and development opportunities to stay ahead in a fast-evolving tech landscape
