Head of Business Systems & IT
Outlook Publishing is an award-winning digital media company delivering B2B content across global markets, backed by an evolving product portfolio and commercial client network. Technology sits at the center of how we operate, collaborate, and scale – particularly across Salesforce, Slack, automation, and AI.
We are looking for a hands-on, commercially minded Head of Business Systems & IT to take ownership of our core business systems and wider technology environment. Salesforce is the engine of our business and will be the primary focus of the role.
We are looking for someone who can not only maintain what we have built, but proactively develop it, identify opportunities for improvement and help us unlock the full potential of our investment in Salesforce, Slack and AI.

Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.

The type of person we're looking for
We're not looking for someone to simply keep the lights on. We want someone genuinely curious about technology, interested in how the business operates, and motivated to continually improve the systems behind it.
You don't need to arrive knowing everything about Agentforce, AI or Outlook. What matters is that you're willing to learn, experiment, and explore how technology can make a genuine difference to the business.
You'll be comfortable talking to a salesperson about how Salesforce could make their job easier, improving a Flow, exploring what AI could automate, or getting involved with a practical IT issue when needed.
Ultimately, we want someone who understands both the technology and the business it exists to support.
