  • A degree in Computer Science (or similar) or equivalent industry experience.

  • A strong background in Agile delivery and software development lifecycle (SDLC) best practices.

  • Experience leading complex projects within large organisations, managing both internal and external teams.

  • Knowledge of DevOps, CI/CD pipelines, and multi-tiered architecture.

  • The ability to influence, motivate, and lead others — with a resilient, adaptable mindset.

  • Excellent communication skills and confidence to represent delivery teams at senior levels
