IT DIRECTOR, PUB CHAIN, CENTRAL LONDON BASED

£110-120k Basic + FX Car + Executive Package

Full Board of Directors Position, Reporting to the CEO

We all like a drink now and again. It is good to visit a pleasant pub for a drink after a hard day at work. But do we ever think about the technology, IT and support services that make that experience so pleasant? Well, you could be the person responsible!

Our prestigious client is a UK-wide pub and bar chain, providing food, beverages and a pleasant environment to meet with friends and colleagues across over 150 outlets. The business has grown since formation in 1994 and has been fortunate to grow both by planned, organic and acquisitive growth. The business now provides a pleasant environment for friends to meet for socialise. The business also wants to ‘transition’ to attract more professional and business users, for example by providing ‘meeting areas’ within their existing bars.

As you can image, the management of the company now they want to take it to the ‘next level’ as they say.

How about if you could check on your email via Wi-Fi whilst sipping your sparkling Pinot Griot?

How about interactive services via touch screens?

These are all ideas bubbling (if you will forget the pun) around in the mid of the CEO. And that is just front of house technology.

We should mention the business also needs a complete back office, retail system and IT departmental upgrade. That is why our client now requires an IT Director to lead this process. This is an exceptional opportunity for an IT management professional to join a growing business with a real spirit (again forgive the pun) of fun and reward.

This is an outstanding opportunity for an IT leader with a commercial and business awareness. We are ideally seeking an individual who truly understands the business benefit of IT and technology, and how advanced IT technologies can impact upon a growing business in this sector.
