Experience managing mixed development ecosystems (custom, packaged, low-code)
Strong background in backlog, roadmap, and delivery management (Agile or hybrid)
Experience with AI governance and adoption in enterprise environments
Track record leading multi-disciplinary teams and third-party suppliers
Experience in regulated or operationally critical environments

Qualifications

Degree-level or equivalent experience
Certification in Agile, Scrum, SAFe, PRINCE2, MSP or similar
Eligible for UK Security Clearance (SC)

Desirable

Relevant cloud/platform certifications
Experience governing low-code and AI solutions at scale
