- Collaborate with business leaders, product teams, and other stakeholders to identify technology requirements and solutions.
- Develop and execute the technology strategy that aligns with business goals by identifying new technology trends, evaluating existing systems and infrastructure, and making recommendations for improvements or upgrades.

- Foster the professional growth of the technical team by providing mentorship and guidance and creating a collaborative work environment that encourages innovation and excellence.
- Support the team in adopting emerging technologies and facilitate their participation in relevant professional development opportunities to enhance their performance and engagement.

- You have the ability to lead and manage people. You can inspire and motivate your team to achieve their goals and ensure that they are aligned with the organisation’s objectives.
- You are a strategic thinker and can develop strategies that in line with Workforce Solutions goals. You are able to anticipate technology trends and developments that could impact the organisation and develop plans to address them.
