Head of Information Technology, Europe

A description for Magnum Microwave is coming soon.

I am a valuable, committed and proven IT leader who has held IT leadership positions for over 20 years. During which time I have successfully led teams providing reliable, accountable and secure IT environments within large corporations. I have experience of communicating and influencing at all levels of the business, and do so by adapting my style and content to my audience. I take pride in my achievements, I genuinely care about the service that my team provides and for my team members themselves. I want to grow myself and my team, to feel valued and to feel that we are adding value to the business. I want to feel trusted and the team be a trusted partner to the business. I am currently a member of the global IT leadership team who are responsible for the definition of IT strategy and its successful deployment. I believe it is important that the IT team do not dictate tools and how they should be used, but to offer, advise and collaborate to ensure the right solutions are used to meet the business needs and bring greater efficiency. I can still be hands-on, but feel progression can only be achieved by taking time to think strategically. I have held the responsibility for multi-site environments located in the UK, Italy, Germany and France. I am highly considered and valued, and have been asked to provide leadership and support to additional organisations within the same corporation. Notable achievements include:- - IT services relocation/ withdrawal due to business site changes - Critical business application deployments including ERP and PLM solutions - Management of IT services through business acquisition/ merger/ sale. - Achievement and maintenance of Cyber Essentials and Cyber Essentials Plus accreditation across multiple UK businesses
