Overall Job Purpose

The Director,

This role shapes and delivers the pod strategy, roadmap, operating model, governance, prioritization and measurable outcomes. The Director balances speed, innovation and employee empowerment with security, privacy, risk, operational resilience and supportability, ensuring employee-led technology adoption remains practical, governed and sustainable.

- Enable governed adoption of Microsoft Copilot, Power Automate and approved low-code/no-code capabilities, with clear boundaries between employee-led solutions and work requiring business-led or technology-led delivery.




- Maintain practical guardrails for safe innovation, including solution registration, ownership, risk tiering, control gates, security review, privacy considerations and operational supportability.
- Identify employee technology friction across corporate and advisor communities and sponsor practical improvements that improve productivity, adoption, service experience and confidence in technology.
- Lead employee technology communications, TechTalks, digital learning content, short video learning, tech tips, onboarding support and awareness campaigns that make technology easier to understand and adopt.
- Manage and refine the pod backlog, making informed trade-offs across value, risk, cost, capacity, quality, employee experience, technical sustainability and operational impact.
- Coordinate agile planning, backlog refinement, sprint execution, reviews and retrospectives to maintain delivery discipline, transparency and momentum.
- Provide day-to-day leadership, coaching and feedback to pod team members; partner with Product and Delivery Chapters on standards, capability development, staffing and best practices.
- Build robust partnerships across business teams, Technology, Security, Risk, Privacy, Architecture, Service Management, enterprise platform teams and corporate support functions.
- Communicate roadmaps, progress, risks, decisions, dependencies and performance clearly to stakeholders and senior leaders.
