Share your talents

Overview of the role

As Business Manager in this role, you are the strategic partner and trusted advisor to the Executive Director - Tech & Data. You help drive clarity and alignment across priorities, support high-quality decision-making, and improve execution on strategic initiatives. You act as a connector across leadership, strategy and delivery, bringing structure, momentum and follow-through.

This is a senior individual contributor role at the heart of Tech & Data. You will operate as a trusted partner to the Executive Director and the MT, driving alignment, decision quality and execution. The role is intentionally a staff/integrator position: you deliver impact through influence, structure and follow-through—not through line management or owning a product, portfolio or budget.

Meet the team

You will join the Tech & Data leadership environment and work closely with the Executive Director, the Tech & Data MT and key stakeholders across the business. You will operate at the heart of the organization, where strategy, priorities and execution come together.

Key responsibilities

• Drive strategic planning and alignment across Tech & Data priorities, roadmaps and interfaces with the business.
• Support executive and MT decision-making with analysis, insights, recommendations and clear narratives.
• Increase MT effectiveness through strong agenda setting, preparation, governance rhythms and follow-up.
• Monitor progress on strategic initiatives, surface risks and dependencies, and support course correction when needed.
• Lead and support change initiatives to strengthen collaboration, communication and organizational effectiveness.
• Provide hands-on executive operations support (agenda management, key meeting preparation and follow-up, travel coordination when needed) to protect focus and execution quality.

Bring all of you

This is you

• You are proactive, structured and comfortable operating with ambiguity.
• You bring strong judgment, high integrity and the ability to influence without authority.
• You communicate clearly, can shift between strategic and practical topics, and build trust across senior stakeholders.
• Several years of experience in strategy, transformation, business operations, consulting or senior program management (preferably in Tech/Data or complex environments).
• Proven experience working closely with senior leadership and facilitating decision-making in leadership teams.
• Strong analytical and synthesis skills, with the ability to turn complexity into clear priorities and actions.
• Excellent stakeholder management skills and a natural ability to connect people and topics.
• You enjoy being a force multiplier and trusted advisor, and you take pride in enabling senior leaders to perform at their best.
• You are looking for a long-term role with continuity and depth, rather than a stepping stone into line leadership.
