The company is an entrepreneurial global technology services group of around 1,500 employees with a presence across three continents and serving some of the most amazing Direct-to-Consumer brands in the US and UK. We are building a new technology venture in stealth mode around software, data and AI combined with services (including forward deployed teams) to help businesses identify high-value operational opportunities, quantify their impact and activate improvements.
We are looking for a Chief Technology & Product Officer (CTPO) to take the product from early prototype to a production-ready platform used by paying enterprise customers, while building the product and technology organization behind it.
This is a true combination of the CTO and CPO roles. You will own what we build, why we build it, how we build it, and how quickly we get it deployed in organisations. We are looking for someone with unusual range: strong product judgment, real technical depth, systems thinking and a relentless instinct to ship.
The CTPO will report directly to the CEO and be part of the company’s executive team.
The Mandate
This is a highly entrepreneurial opportunity in which you will have full ownership of product, engineering and AI/data. You will inherit an approximately 10-person engineering team and have broad freedom to change what needs changing: architecture, technology stack, team structure, product processes and development practices. You will have substantial autonomy over product and technology strategy — and equally substantial accountability for the outcome. In brief, the mandate is to build an exceptional product, get it into the hands of real customers, prove that it creates measurable value, and build the organization capable of scaling it.
What You Will Own
Product
Technology & AI
We do not want a technology executive who has moved so far from the work that every technical question must be delegated.
Team
We would rather have a smaller group of exceptional builders than a large team producing activity without momentum.
Customers & Commercial Impact
You must have an orientation to stay close to and engage with customers and prospects in order to validate product direction, support critical early deployments and rapidly incorporate real-world learning into the roadmap.
Who We Are Looking For
You may already be a CTO, CPO or CTPO, or an exceptional VP / Head of Product / Head of Engineering ready for a broader mandate. We care far more about what you have built than your title, university or employer logos.
You will likely have:
If you can demonstrate exceptional technical capability, product judgment and evidence of shipping meaningful products, we are interested.
How You Operate
You will probably enjoy this role if you:
We are trying to build something exceptional. We are looking for someone who finds that prospect energizing.
Compensation
Competitive executive compensation plus a meaningful equity or long-term incentive opportunity.
