The Director & Practice Lead, Platform Engineering will define and own the Platform Engineering Practice along with its market strategy, P&L, talent, and delivery quality.

P&L: Own revenue targets, margin, and growth while being accountable for the practice's commercial performance.
Talent & Culture: Build a practice where engineering excellence and continuous learning are the default.
Client Impact: Serve as a strategic advisor to enterprise CxOs navigating complex transformation programmes.
Set the long-term technical vision for the practice, connecting capability-building to real market demand for cloud and digital transformation.
Own the full P&L, including pricing and pipeline to delivery margin and revenue growth, and report directly to executive leadership.
Build and maintain senior relationships with channel partner teams such as Google Cloud and enterprise client executives to generate and win meaningful deal flow.
Drive investment in IP, accelerators, and reusable assets that support the commercial group and the sale of practice services, as well as improve delivery speed and protect margins at scale.
