Head of Applications / Business Systems Manager

What if you could join a business where digital transformation isn't just a buzzword and it's a genuine board-level priority?

We're looking for a Digital & Systems Delivery Lead to take ownership of a growing application technology function that's central to the future success of the organisation.

This is a role for someone who enjoys making things happen. Someone who can see the bigger commercial picture whilst still understanding the technology that sits behind it.

You'll be responsible for driving improvements across digital platforms, business systems, integrations, data, and customer-facing technology. You'll lead teams, influence senior stakeholders, manage external partners, and ensure technology is delivering measurable business value.

One day you might be shaping the digital roadmap. The next, improving customer journeys, driving automation initiatives, implementing AI-led solutions, or helping build an internal development capability from the ground up.

What you'll bring:
  • Experience leading digital, systems, applications, or technology delivery teams
  • A strong understanding of software development, integrations, APIs, data and reporting platforms
  • Commercial awareness and the ability to translate business opportunities into technology solutions
  • Experience managing stakeholders, suppliers and development roadmaps
  • A passion for improving customer experience through technology
You'll probably be working today as:
  • Head of Digital
  • Business Systems Manager
  • Applications Development Manager
  • Technology Delivery Manager
  • Software Development Manager
  • Head of Applications
  • Digital Product or Delivery Lead
This is a hybrid role with two days  per week in the Leicestershire offices.

Why apply?
Because opportunities to genuinely shape the future direction of a business don't come along every day.

You'll join an organisation investing heavily in technology, data, automation and customer experience, giving you the platform to make a visible and lasting impact.

Interested? Let's have a confidential conversation.
