The role works closely with business stakeholders and IT architecture teams to define the strategy for each platform, building roadmaps which deliver long term value and then delivering those roadmaps through both in-house capability and strategic partners.

The role also has a strong focus on delivering operational support to the Platinum Metal Trading team ensuring excellent service is delivered 24x7 across the global operation. A review of current platform capability, technical design and performance, and support needs to be developed with a view to simplify, improve performance and optimise total cost of ownership.
