Lead – Strategic Technology Assurance
We’re looking for a sharp, curious professional to join a team that ensures technology and delivery initiatives deliver real business value. This isn’t a traditional compliance role, it’s about understanding how people, systems, and partnerships drive outcomes, and helping teams make them better.
What you’ll do
Evaluate technology and business projects to ensure governance, decision-making, and delivery structures support success. Translate strategic goals into measurable outcomes.
Spot risks in handovers, dependencies, and APIs. Ensure agreements and performance measures are clear, practical, and monitored effectively.
Review complex systems, platforms, and processes. Assess CI/CD pipelines, platform resilience, access controls, and other critical tech processes to identify improvements.
Deliver actionable findings to senior leaders. Help shape an assurance function that is forward-looking, flexible, and focused on value rather than compliance.
Who you are
Curious and strategic, comfortable moving between high-level strategy and technical detail.
Experienced in technology risk, delivery oversight, or assurance in complex, high-performance environments.
Confident engaging with engineers, data scientists, and delivery leads to understand systems and processes.
Skilled at making balanced, commercial judgments, especially in ambiguous situations.
Familiar with Agile, DevOps, modern delivery practices, API and third-party risk, and performance metrics.
Able to influence through insight and credibility rather than authority.
Interested in emerging areas like agentic AI, data analytics, and visualisation.
Strong academic background, ideally in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related analytical field.
