• Ensure operational excellence through proactive management of audit and compliance requirements, patching, technical vulnerabilities, exceptions, and lifecycle risks.
• Ensure that solutions comply with relevant regulatory, information security, data protection, and audit requirements.
• Secure the budget, resources, approvals, competencies, and organizational support required for successful delivery.
• Build trusted relationships with key stakeholders, gather feedback, and translate business needs into clear priorities.

To succeed, you will have:

• A relevant higher education, preferably within IT, finance, business, or a related field, combined with several years of experience in a similar leadership role.
• Proven leadership experience managing cross-functional and multicultural teams, preferably in mission-critical IT environments.
• A strong ability to set direction, develop people, create engagement, and establish clear accountability.
• A curious, open, and positive mindset, with a strong focus on collaboration, knowledge sharing, and continuous learning.
• A solid end-to-end understanding of enterprise technology, from user-facing applications and integrations to platforms and underlying infrastructure.
• Experience driving implementation, organizational change, and measurable business value.
• Strong stakeholder management and communication skills, with the ability to collaborate across business, technology, vendor, and leadership communities.
• A customer-focused and service-minded approach, with a commitment to stable, secure, resilient, and well-maintained solutions.
• A passion for agile values and principles, combined with the pragmatism to adapt ways of working to the team and delivery context.
• Professional proficiency in English, both written and spoken. Danish language skills are an advantage.
