About the Company

Robert Half Executive Search has been exclusively retained to identify an accomplished Technology Transformation Consulting leader. Our client is a globally renowned and respected well established consulting firm investing significantly to further its growth agenda in the APAC region. The firm's offers a broad range of consultancy services to enterprise as well as mid-market clients across multiple industries including Financial Services, Corporate and Government. Our client promotes an agile and flexible work environment with a progressive suite of benefits and wellbeing policies. The culture is one of empowerment, autonomy, entrepreneurship and accountability and employees enjoy a non-political meritocratic environment with no siloes.

About the Role

This appointment represents a significant opportunity to shape a strategically important growth capability for the firm in Australia. The platform transformation market is evolving quickly as clients seek to modernise ERP and CRM estates, unify workflows, improve data and controls foundations, embed AI into enterprise processes and realise tangible value from major technology investments. Our client has broad and credible global technology transformation capability from which to compete. The successful Managing Director will be expected to translate that global strength into local market momentum and sustainable practice growth creating a coherent and differentiated proposition for the Australian market. The role will combine business development, executive advisory, solution leadership, alliance engagement and hands on programme delivery. This newly created Managing Director role will best suit an individual who can move fluently between advisory and delivery conversations, from whiteboarding solutions to creating boardroom value cases and architecture choices through to governance, testing, data and adoption risks. It is best aligned to a Partner, Principal, Managing Director or highly experienced Director-level professional from a consulting-led background in enterprise applications, digital transformation, cloud-enabled platform modernisation or major technology transformation programme delivery. Ideally possessing exposure to multiple technology solutions, including the Microsoft ecosystem, the successful individual may currently sit within a Big 4 professional services firm or similar, a major global systems integrator, or a boutique technology consultancy with established credibility in technology transformation delivery. An individual who is naturally market-facing and can create executive-level demand by connecting technology modernisation to business outcomes such as growth, resilience, efficiency, control and speed will thrive in this growing firm.
