- 15+ years in software engineering, with a clear progression into senior technical leadership
- Strong technical credibility (web/backend JS/TS or mobile‑native background)
- Experience leading multi-disciplinary engineering teams in a client services / agency / consultancy environment
- Comfortable with modern architectures, cloud, CI/CD and AI‑assisted tooling
- Confident engaging with clients, senior stakeholders and new business opportunities
- A human‑first leader who cares deeply about team wellbeing, growth and inclusion
- Calm, adaptable and effective in fast‑moving, ambiguous environments
Why This Role?
