Full Job Description
Head of Technology Enabled Services (Global)

Executive Leadership | Remote (US) / Hybrid | Travel up to 30%

This is not a traditional delivery leadership role.

This is a global ownership mandate - an opportunity to build, scale, and lead a high-impact Technology Enabled Services (TES) organisation at the intersection of enterprise technology, mission-critical delivery, and regulated industries.

You will operate as a true business leader: owning delivery, shaping product direction, driving revenue and margin, and building a world-class organisation - with equity participation aligned to long-term value creation.

If you bring deep experience in SAP ecosystems and enterprise platforms, and thrive in complex, high-stakes environments, this role is built for you.
The Opportunity

As Head of Technology Enabled Services, you will own the end-to-end global delivery engine - integrating proprietary technology platforms with high-value services across Aerospace & Defense, Utilities, Energy, Satellite, and Government sectors.

You will:
  • Lead globally distributed teams
  • Own P&L performance
  • Shape how technology is deployed at scale
  • Influence product and platform strategy
  • Operate directly with C-suite and government stakeholders

This is a rare chance to build something enduring - not just run what already exists.
What You'll Own
Global Delivery & Operational Excellence
  • Full accountability for global service delivery across all client engagements
  • Build and scale repeatable, high-performance delivery frameworks
  • Set the gold standard for quality, SLAs, and client outcomes
  • Lead multidisciplinary teams spanning program leadership, architecture, engineering, and client success
Technology & Platform Leadership (SAP + Enterprise Ecosystems)
  • Own the deployment and operational success of technology platforms within client environments
  • Act as the bridge between real-world delivery and product innovation
  • Drive enterprise adoption and expansion, with a strong emphasis on SAP-centric environments and integrations
  • Ensure seamless interoperability across client systems, compliance frameworks, and operational workflows
Strategic Client Leadership in Regulated Environments
  • Serve as the executive relationship owner for critical, high-value accounts
  • Operate confidently within highly regulated and controlled environments (A&D, Energy, Government)
  • Navigate complex compliance landscapes including export controls, data sovereignty, and security frameworks
  • Lead engagements involving sensitive, classified, and mission-critical programs
P&L Ownership & Growth
  • Own revenue, margin, and long-term account growth
  • Partner with Sales to win, structure, and scale new business
  • Identify and unlock organic expansion opportunities
  • Develop commercial models and pricing strategies that balance growth with delivery excellence
Build & Lead a World-Class Organisation
  • Recruit, develop, and inspire a high-calibre global delivery team
  • Create a culture of accountability, innovation, and continuous improvement
  • Establish career pathways, capability frameworks, and domain expertise - especially across SAP and regulated sectors
  • Act as a multiplier of talent and leadership capability
Governance, Risk & Compliance
  • Implement robust governance frameworks and executive reporting
  • Proactively manage delivery risk across complex portfolios
  • Ensure audit readiness, certifications, and security compliance
  • Represent the organisation in executive reviews, audits, and government oversight environments
What You Bring
Core Experience
  • 12+ years leading technology services, managed services, or professional services organisations
  • Proven success running large-scale delivery in regulated industries
  • Strong track record of P&L ownership and commercial accountability
  • Experience managing complex, multi-year, enterprise engagements
  • Expertise leading globally distributed teams
Critical Domain Strength
  • Deep experience within SAP ecosystems (implementation, integration, or transformation programs)
  • Strong understanding of enterprise platforms and technology-enabled service models
  • Ability to connect technology capability to measurable business outcomes
Regulatory & Industry Acumen
  • Working knowledge of frameworks such as ITAR, EAR, NERC CIP, FAR/DFARS, or equivalents
  • Experience operating in secure, compliance-heavy, or government-aligned environments
  • Confidence navigating international delivery and data sovereignty requirements
Leadership & Influence
  • Executive presence with the ability to influence C-suite, boards, and government stakeholders
  • Strategic thinker with the ability to translate vision into execution
  • Comfortable operating in ambiguity, scale, and high-pressure environments
Highly Valued
  • Experience scaling proprietary or SaaS platforms in enterprise environments
  • Background in critical infrastructure or national security sectors
  • Certifications such as PMP, ITIL, or similar
  • Active or eligible security clearance
  • International delivery experience across allied or global government ecosystems
Why This Role
  • Global ownership of a mission-critical business unit
  • Direct influence on product, strategy, and growth trajectory
  • Exposure to high-impact, high-visibility programs
  • Opportunity to build and scale a next-generation services organisation
  • Equity participation aligned to long-term success
Additional Requirements
  • Ability to obtain and maintain relevant security clearance
  • Willingness to travel up to 30% (domestic & international)
  • Eligibility to work within export-controlled environments
