Head of IT

Verda is scaling quickly across infrastructure, customers, geographies, and headcount. The internal technology environment needs to keep pace.

We're looking for a Head of IT to take ownership of Verda's internal IT function end-to-end, from identity and access management through to SaaS, devices, corporate infrastructure, vendors, controls, and the processes that keep the organisation operating securely.

This is a senior role with significant autonomy. We need someone who can build the IT to function in a rapidly scaling environment rather than simply operate an existing one. You'll work closely with Security, Compliance, and People, and you'll be expected to make sound technical and operational decisions without waiting for a playbook.

We're ambitious, curious, and pragmatic builders. We operate with low hierarchy, high ownership, and a strong bias for action.
