Define and drive the Digital Manufacturing roadmap, including technology selection, architecture design, and innovation across MES, IIoT, AI, and data platforms.
Own and deliver transformation initiatives such as MES standardisation, process digitisation, instrument data acquisition, and Plant Pulse / IIoT deployments.
Provide technical leadership across core systems including SCADA, MES, DCS platforms, and Historian systems (e.g. PI, RtReports), ensuring performance, scalability, and compliance.
Lead packaging and inspection system integration and support, including track & trace solutions (e.g. Systech Guardian) and SAP ATTP compliance.
Act as the key site Automation Business Partner, collaborating with Manufacturing, QA, Packaging, Maintenance, and Engineering to align automation solutions with operational goals.
Engage with global IT and infrastructure teams (e.g. Citrix, Microsoft, virtualisation, network/security) to ensure alignment between OT and IT architectures.
Drive cybersecurity, infrastructure resilience, and compliance initiatives, ensuring systems meet corporate and regulatory standards (GxP, data integrity, cybersecurity frameworks).
Oversee system integrations across enterprise layers, including SAP, Level 2 systems (OPC, MES interfaces, PI), and digital automation tools such as RPA (e.g. UiPath).
Lead troubleshooting, break-fix, and continuous improvement activities, ensuring minimal downtime and continuous optimisation of manufacturing systems.
Mentor and guide automation engineers and cross-functional teams, establishing best practices, standards, and governance across projects and operations.

Experience with enterprise and Level 2/3 integrations, including OPC, middleware, SAP integration, and data platforms.
Solid knowledge of infrastructure and IT/OT convergence, including virtualisation (VMware/Hyper-V), networking, Citrix environments, and cloud/digital platforms.
