Reporting to the UK CEO, Trifork is looking for a Business Unit Director to lead and grow our London-centred consulting and software delivery business, with responsibility for customer growth, delivery quality, people leadership, and commercial performance.
This is a senior leadership role with significant influence over the growth, culture, and future direction of the UK business.
We’re looking for someone who is commercially minded, people-focused, and technically credible—someone who can build trusted relationships with customers, support the growth of the business, and create an environment where talented engineers and consultants can thrive. This is not a traditional corporate management role. We’re looking for someone collaborative, pragmatic, and entrepreneurial; someone equally comfortable discussing strategy with senior business leaders, supporting complex customer engagements, and working closely with technologists and delivery teams.
The role combines commercial leadership, customer relationship development, operational ownership, and people leadership. You’ll play a key role in shaping the next phase of growth for the UK business, working closely with senior leadership across the UK and the wider Trifork Group, including the CTO Office, to drive collaboration, innovation, and sustainable growth.
What You’ll Be Doing
Growing the Business
- Build strong long-term relationships with customers, partners, and the wider technology community
- Help identify, shape, and win new business opportunities
- Support strategic consulting conversations, proposals, and customer engagements
- Grow the visibility and reputation of Trifork within the UK market
- Identify new areas for growth, collaboration, and partnerships
