Head of Digital and Technology

Summary

This is a rare opportunity to step into a pivotal role at Climate Group and shape how technology enables our global mission. Having recently implemented key platforms including Hub Spot CRM and website hosting, and Click Up for project management, we're now focused on embedding these tools, driving adoption, and unlocking their full potential across the organisation. As Head of Digital and Technology, you'll lead that next phase, helping colleagues work smarter, collaborate more effectively, and make better use of data, automation and AI to accelerate climate action.

This is a 12-month fixed-term contract with a clear mandate: build momentum, embed change, and leave a lasting impact. You'll join at a moment when strong foundations are already in place, giving you the opportunity to lead meaningful transformation, influence senior stakeholders, and deliver visible organisation-wide improvements. While the role is initially fixed term, the work ahead will help shape Climate Group's longer-term digital future.

While all qualified candidates are encouraged to apply, preference may be given to those with earlier availability.

This is a senior leadership role, responsible for setting direction, shaping investment and risk decisions, leading the internal technology function and supplier network, and driving digital transformation, AI adoption, and service performance across the organisation.

Managing a small team of two technology and data specialists, you'll work closely with senior leaders, colleagues across all teams, and specialist technology partners to ensure our systems, data and digital tools support organisational priorities and enable global collaboration.

A key focus of the role will be to evolve our technology strategy, and to drive the adoption, optimisation and continuous improvement of recently implemented platforms, particularly Hub Spot and Click Up. You'll help embed consistent ways of working, strengthen reporting and automation, improve user experience, and identify opportunities to use emerging technologies, including AI, to increase efficiency and impact. Alongside this, you'll oversee technology operations, cyber security, supplier management and future digital investment, ensuring Climate Group has the technology foundations needed to deliver its mission at scale.
