In this key role, you will be responsible for driving solution engineering with the dual goal of enhancing the velocity and quality of technology-enabled business change, while also improving the stability, security, resilience, and scalability of solutions in production. You will establish an Engineering Centre of Excellence (COE) to standardise and uplift engineering best practices, enhance delivery speed and quality, and optimise the path to production to ensure safe, stable operations. Your role will also involve creating an engineering and digital “front door” for services, ensuring strong collaboration with organisational, project, and transformation stakeholders to achieve both operational and strategic outcomes.

As the General Manager Technology Engineering, you will lead the development of robust knowledge management capabilities, support a hybrid sourcing model for engineering delivery, and drive continuous improvement and maturity across DevOps practices.
