Job Description
Can you be comfortable being uncomfortable? Are you fine with always speaking your mind? Can you lead, execute, and stay focused despite many distractions, and do the work yourself if needed?
At Aculocity, we fight for the customer's needs. We are disrupting the data industry by putting the customers' needs first. We custom-build software designed to deliver value to the customer, and integrate with existing systems and data to give the customer a holistic view of their business. We are a dynamic, fast moving, global technology consulting company that enhances business processes and uses technology to solve business problems and create leverage.
It takes a special kind of person to be a part of this business in transformation. We are privately owned and expect our team members to act with an owner mindset: Relentless about creating value for the customer. Dogged about finding efficiencies and eliminating waste. Standing arm and arm with the rest of the team until the job is done—and ready to do it again the next day, with a smile.
It is not easy to do things differently. But we do it—because we are passionate about improving our business and the lives of the people who use our tools.
What will you do? The Group CIO/CTO (Chief Information Officer/Chief Technology Officer) will lead and drive lean continuous improvement for all internal business processes with a team of business analysts through the implementation of technology across the portfolio of companies. You will own and manage all technology and processes in the organization. Partner with all stakeholders to establish Aculocity as the internal subject matter expert of all things technology to support process efficiencies, eliminate waste, and advance technological advantages. As the subject matter expert, create and manage complex, integrated, process improvement and technology projects that cross multiple organizational functions and locations. Understand technology, make vs. buy, and recommend and implement what should be utilized to successfully execute against aggressive business + growth strategies. Understand managing human capital and how to drive efficiency through below market rates in order to maximize the P&L. Teach and mentor functional teams to improve business processes, automating as many business functions as possible in order to drive customer satisfaction and increase productivity. Create a roadmap for the growth and development of the standalone Aculocity business and opportunities to leverage technology to create sustainable competitive advantages for the businesses.
