Full description from employer
As a Director of Engineering, you’ll lead an established engineering organisation responsible for one of our key business areas, with the autonomy and accountability to make a significant impact on how engineering performs at Zopa. You’ll set direction, build high-performing teams and drive meaningful improvements across people, technology and ways of working. This isn’t a role focused on incremental change: we’re looking for someone who can identify where the biggest opportunities exist, create a clear strategy and turn it into measurable progress. You’ll have the scope to influence significant technical and architectural decisions, improve engineering effectiveness and shape how we build and operate technology.
Your impact will extend beyond the teams you directly lead. Our Directors are expected to raise the level of engineering across Zopa, working closely with Product, Commercial and Technology leaders to turn engineering improvements into better business outcomes. You’ll bring strong people leadership, technical credibility and a genuinely data-led approach to understanding what’s working and where we can improve, while helping us push further in areas such as AI-enabled engineering.
This is an opportunity for an experienced engineering leader to take real ownership, drive substantial change and clearly see the results of the decisions they make.
As a highly collaborative role, you’ll attend our Canary Wharf office 3 days per week
