    Lead the vendor selection process for new business systems solutions in partnership with the procurement department.
    Create business justification papers to gain executive approval for financial and resource requirements.
    Manage IT business system improvements, including requirements definition, business case development, design, and technical implementation.

    Build and maintain strong relationships with business and systems suppliers to align new and existing systems with the overall strategy, reducing shadow IT instances.

    Support a cloud-first IT strategy, working with suppliers to ensure system stability, changes, and upgrades are managed through the IT change control and PMO processes.

    Demonstrate strong awareness of PMO and project management methodologies to effectively guide projects throughout the lifecycle.
    Understand system architecture and recognise implications on infrastructure, service delivery, and information security.
    Collaborate with IT support teams to ensure smooth implementation, upgrades, and transition into business as usual.
    Ensure end users understand new technologies and resolve any issues while relaying feedback to support teams.
    Influence stakeholders at senior levels, adapting your style to your audience.
    Undertake additional reasonable tasks required by the line manager in line with competence and grade.
    Ensure that day-to-day activities support the company's Sustainability Policy Statement and relevant management systems.


    Qualifications:
    Bachelor's degree in Information Technology, Business Administration, or a related field.
    Proven experience in strategic IT partnership roles with a strong understanding of business planning and project initiation.
    Exceptional relationship management and stakeholder engagement skills.
    Strong analytical skills for developing robust business cases and project documentation.
    Familiarity with project management principles while understanding the distinction between partnership and management.


    Why This Opportunity Matters:

    This role is not only crucial for the client's digital transformation journey but also a unique gateway for your career advancement.

    As an IT Business Partner, you'll be at the epicentre of change and innovation, influencing decisions that shape the company's future and opening doors to new opportunities in IT and business strategy.
