• About the Team Hiring

IT & Business Transformation is a global function reporting to the Graitec CEO, made up of four teams: Business

Transformation, Data & AI, Information Security, and IT Operations & Platforms. Together we own the delivery capability behind how Graitec operates and we drive Graitec’s continued transformation.

We work as fusion teams and as one with the wider organisation: technology and business colleagues working towards the same goals and outcomes.

Business Transformation is the delivery engine, turning Graitec's growth ambition into a sequenced, prioritised portfolio delivered with precision and pace. It brings together programme delivery and the PMO, enterprise architecture, change and adoption, and business partnering. The team is new, and this role builds and leads it.

• Overview
• Business Purpose & Value Contribution

This role leads Graitec's transformation portfolio: the programmes that change how we sell, deliver, bill and serve our customers, and the governance, architecture and change capability that make them land.

Graitec's plan is for revenue to grow faster than headcount, driven by platforms and process rather than people, as we move further towards integrated solutions, our own software and recurring services. The role brings our change into one coherent portfolio, from ERP modernisation and the commercial growth engine to customer self- service, services at scale and corporate AI. Success is measured in value captured and adopted, not in systems deployed.

You will build and lead a team of programme and project managers, a PMO and enterprise architecture, and be the senior transformation partner to Graitec's leadership team, working with the SVP IT & Business

Transformation. This is an opportunity to shape how a growing, acquisitive software and services business works.

It is not a traditional PMO or an advisory role: it is hands‑on leadership, accountable for outcomes and credible with executives and delivery teams alike.
