Technical Skill & Experience:

Proven experience leading the planning and implementation of engineering functions for complex ICT systems and solutions.
Skilled and effective communicator, both spoken and written, with a demonstrated ability to convey complex ideas to a non-IT audience.
Strong experience in a similar large-scale enterprise or Defence environment is highly desirable.
