We're working with an established technology business, and they're looking for a hands-on Information Systems Lead who personally builds and runs the systems estate, and in time builds and leads a small team.

Maintain front-end web (HTML/CSS/JavaScript), product feeds and data exchange (XML/JSON)
Build BI dashboards (e.g. Power BI or similar)
Explore AI/LLM approaches (RAG / agentic workflows)
Build and lead a small IS team over time

What you'll bring

A hands-on automation / integration background - RPA, SQL, workflow automation, web and BI
Strong SQL Server, and ERP integration experience
Front-end web (HTML/CSS/JavaScript) and data formats (XML/JSON)
BI dashboarding, and the drive to step up into an IS-lead role

Advantageous

AI/LLM - RAG or agentic workflows
