London | Remote with occasional London meetings
12-month contract | c.22 hours per month | Outside IR35
I’m supporting the search for a senior Independent IT Advisor to join an organisation on a 12-month basis. This is a high-impact advisory role for an experienced technology leader who can provide strategic guidance, oversight and challenge across a complex technology and data agenda.
This is not an operational or delivery leadership role. The successful individual will act as a trusted strategic partner to the senior technology leadership team, helping to validate plans, challenge key decisions and provide confidence in the overall direction. There may also be occasional input to the executive team and Board on technology strategy, progress and risk.
A core requirement for this role is strong Salesforce knowledge. The organisation is looking for someone who can bring credible, senior-level oversight to a Salesforce-centred environment, with the ability to assess architecture, challenge direction, identify risk and support simplification and stability.
The main focus of the role will be:
* Data, insight and analytics — strengthening data capability, validating data strategy and supporting scalable architecture
* Technology architecture simplification and stability — with a strong focus on a Salesforce-centred estate
The role would suit someone with:
* Senior technology leadership experience at CIO / CTO level, or equivalent
* Strong Salesforce knowledge and experience working in or advising on Salesforce-led environments
* A strong track record in complex organisation-wide technology and data strategy
* Strong architectural thinking across data, systems and integration
* A practical understanding of AI risk, governance and policy
* The ability to provide clear, pragmatic executive-level guidance and challenge
This is a great opportunity for someone who enjoys bringing senior-level perspective without owning delivery, and who wants to play a meaningful role in shaping a business-critical technology and data agenda.
Please get in touch if this could be of interest, or if there’s someone in your network I should speak to.
