## Description

You’ll lead and support an engineering organisation of ~30 people, shaping a platform that operates as a product – reliable, well‑governed, and delightful to use.

**Lead with impact**

- Partner with us to set a clear vision and roadmap for cloud data and analytics products (e.g., Snowflake, Microsoft Fabric, AWS), aligned to business value.

- Champion the creation of digital, developer-centric platform-as-a-product which provide opinionated self‑service capabilities.

- Prioritise customer outcomes and a product mindset: clear ownership, measurable outcomes, and continuous feedback loops.

- Grow an inclusive, high‑performing engineering team; coach leaders, hire thoughtfully, create a culture of learning and psychological safety.

- Create a coherent, coordinated engineering organisation across BI, data management, analytics and data governance - driving one way of working and shared standards.

**Design for trust, reliability, and scale**

- Embed governance, security, privacy, and compliance from the start using tools such as Microsoft Purview and Collibra.

- Simplify data ingestion from diverse sources with resilient real‑time and batch pipelines.

- Define and uphold standards for reliability, disaster recovery, and data quality,minimising data loss and downtime.

**Enable great engineering**

- Uplift engineering craft and consistency: modern software engineering practices, well‑defined interfaces/APIs, automated testing, CI/CD, and operational excellence.

- Drive platform reuse over one‑off delivery: shared building blocks, reference implementations, and inner‑sourcing where it reduces cost and improves quality.

- Promote practical, modern data engineering practices (e.g., Python, Spark, dbt) through architecture reviews, coaching, and automation.

- Measure what matters: use OKRs, KPIs, and service metrics (SLOs/SLIs) to guide decisions and improve outcomes.

- Build strong relationships with partner teams in Sales, Operations, Finance, Risk, and HR,and with suppliers,so delivery is predictable and trusted.

- Build a high‑performance delivery culture: predictable planning, clear ownership, fast feedback, and transparency on delivery, reliability, and customer impact.

**About you**

- You’ve led senior engineering teams to deliver large‑scale cloud data platforms with clear business impact.

- You’re comfortable making and explaining architectural decisions, and you create space for others to contribute.

- You bring depth in at least some of: Snowflake, Microsoft Fabric, AWS, Spark, Python, dbt,and you learn new tools when they’re the right fit.

- You care deeply about data security, privacy, and governance, and you’ve used tools like Purview or Collibra (or similar) to make this real.

- You communicate clearly with technical and non‑technical audiences, turning complex topics into practical, inclusive narratives.

- You’ve led geographically distributed teams, improving team effectiveness, engineering standards, and delivery outcomes.

- You’ve set reliability standards and supported both analytical and operational workloads at scale.

**Why join us**

- **Real impact**: Your leadership will shape how the company uses data every day.

- **Growth**: You’ll develop leaders, set strategy, and still stay close to the engineering craft.

- **Supportive culture**: Flexible working, inclusive practices, and time for learning are part of how we operate.

- **Visibility**: You’ll collaborate across business and technology, influencing decisions at senior levels.
