Accountabilities:

• Enterprise IT and operations across multiple countries, including network infrastructure, cybersecurity, endpoint management, global service desk, and identity and access management.

• High adaptability and cross-cultural communication skills required to lead distributed teams and support operations across various time zones.

• Pragmatic, business-first mindset suited for a lean, efficient environment that values speed and outcomes over heavy process or top-down IT governance.

• Familiarity with modern data platform architecture (Azure Data Lake, Databricks, Microsoft Fabric, Power BI), experience navigating corporate ownership transitions, or prior energy sector exposure is highly advantageous.

Benefits:

• Competitive executive salary package reflecting the impact and scale of the role.
