• Attend relevant COO-chaired governance committees, leading key Technology discussions and driving decisions to closure.

Strategy execution & roadmap ownership

Regulatory engagement, audit management & control assurance

  API platforms/integration (design standards, lifecycle management, reliability)
  DevSecOps (CI/CD, automated testing, security scanning, policy-as-code, release governance)
  AI/ML enablement (responsible adoption, model risk considerations, data controls, secure deployment patterns)
• Ensure engineering practices meet enterprise standards for security-by-design, reliability, observability, and operational resilience.
• Oversee application development, remediation, and service management for non GB/GF CIO-owned solutions/services (where applicable).

Portfolio, programme & project management (large change portfolio)

• Provide management and oversight of the country change portfolio, including prioritisation, sequencing, dependency management, and benefits tracking.
• Lead governance for a large portfolio of programmes and projects, ensuring delivery discipline across scope, schedule, budget, risk, and quality.
• Drive consistent delivery reporting (RAID, milestones, financials, resource plans) and intervene early to unblock delivery issues.
• Ensure change governance supports safe delivery (release controls, change approvals, incident learnings, post-implementation reviews).

Service management, incident leadership & operational resilience

• Provide full oversight and advice on Technology issues in-country, including resolution of critical incidents and coordination of key deployments.
• Own end-to-end development and running of non GB/GF CIO-owned country Technology services, including problem management and change governance to ensure service quality.
• Strengthen operational resilience through improved monitoring, capacity planning, DR readiness, and continuous service improvement.

Financial, resource & people leadership

• Own direct cost and headcount management for country teams, including annual planning and forecasting.
• Lead people change activities (including restructuring where required) in partnership with HR and in line with local requirements.
• Build a high-performing culture with clear objectives, talent development, and strong accountability.
