* Drive vendor selection, contract negotiation, and solution evaluation
* Oversee process redesign and operating model changes aligned to CAFM capabilities
* Coordinate cross‑functional teams across multiple geographies
* Ensure successful deployment, adoption, and benefits realisation across the estate
* Act as the senior point of escalation for delivery, risks, and stakeholder alignment
* Champion change management, training, and communication strategies
What We’re Looking For
* Proven track record delivering large‑scale technology and business transformation programmes
* Demonstrable experience with CAFM platforms (e.g., Planon, Concept Evolution, IBM TRIRIGA, Accruent, etc.)
* Strong background in facilities management, retail estates, or property operations
* Exceptional leadership, stakeholder management, and communication skills
* Ability to navigate complex organisational structures and bring clarity to ambiguity
* Experience managing multi‑vendor environments and global delivery teams
* Comfortable operating at pace in a high‑profile, strategically critical programme
Why Join?
You’ll be shaping a global operating model for one of the world’s most recognisable retail brands. This is a rare opportunity to lead a transformation that will have lasting impact across thousands of sites and millions of customers.
