This is a senior technology leadership role - the strategic right hand to the Head of CIB & Research Technology.

Role Description
The Director leads the day-to-day business management and operating agenda for CIB Technology, with particular accountability for technology strategy, financial and investment management, workforce and location strategy, vendor governance, technology operational risk and leadership effectiveness. The role partners closely with the Head of CIB Technology and leadership team while managing the Business Management function supporting the organization.

Own the annual budget planning process, quarterly forecasting, monthly actuals review and variance analysis for CIB Technology.
Provide transparent financial reporting and decision support, including cost transparency across infrastructure, cloud, labor and vendor spend.
Partner with Finance and technology leaders to align investment, workforce and vendor spending to agreed priorities.

Technology Operational Risk (TOR) Leadership
Risk governance, reporting and remediation: lead the consolidated view of technology operational risk across CIB Technology - risk posture, key risk indicators, control exceptions, audit findings, remediation plans, dependencies and executive escalations.

Support executive offsites, organization redesign activities and leadership planning sessions.
Provide concise visibility of progress, dependencies, risks and decisions across major technology, data, AI, client intelligence and platform modernization priorities.
