Great technology should make work easier, not get in the way.
It removes friction. It simplifies complexity. It allows people to focus on delivering exceptional work rather than fighting with systems, devices or processes.
At Aston Martin, we're continuing to evolve the digital workplace that supports every part of our business, from the teams designing and engineering our next generation of vehicles, to the colleagues building them, selling them and supporting our global operations.
We're looking for a Modern Workplace Lead to help define what that experience looks like in the years ahead.
This is an opportunity to take ownership of the technology that thousands of colleagues rely on every day and shape a workplace experience that is secure, reliable, intuitive and continuously improving.
About the Role
Reporting to the Senior Manager, IT Operations, you'll lead the development and delivery of our Modern Workplace strategy and roadmap. You'll play a key role in ensuring the technology experience across Aston Martin supports productivity, collaboration and innovation, while meeting the evolving needs of a modern workforce.
Your remit will span the full end-user technology landscape, including Microsoft 365, endpoint management, workplace devices, hardware asset management, software deployment, print services and the wider digital employee experience. You'll be responsible for ensuring these services remain operationally robust while identifying new opportunities to improve automation, compliance, security and user satisfaction.
Key Responsibilities
- Lead the development and delivery of our Modern Workplace strategy and roadmap.
- Ensure the technology experience across Aston Martin supports productivity, collaboration and innovation.
- Understand how people use technology and create an environment where that technology enables them to do their best work.
- Work closely with Service Desk, Cyber Security, Software Asset Management, IT Governance and external technology partners.
- Provide technical leadership across the Modern Workplace estate.
- Establish clear governance, drive service improvements and ensure new workplace capabilities are delivered successfully and embedded effectively into business-as-usual operations.
- Work closely with suppliers and strategic partners, ensuring Aston Martin continues to receive maximum value from its workplace technology investments while maintaining high standards of service, support and security.
Reasons to use Rodeo
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.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
Skills and Experience
To succeed in this role, you'll bring a combination of technical expertise, strategic thinking and a passion for delivering exceptional user experiences. You may already be leading a Modern Workplace, End User Computing or Digital Workplace function, or you may have built extensive experience managing workplace technologies within a large and complex enterprise environment.
You'll have strong knowledge of Microsoft 365 and modern productivity platforms, alongside experience of enterprise endpoint management using technologies such as Microsoft Intune. Experience across hardware asset management, software deployment, workplace security, compliance, endpoint engineering and service management will be equally important. Exposure to platforms such as ServiceNow, Tanium, Ivanti or similar workplace management technologies will be highly beneficial.
We're particularly interested in individuals who are excited by the future of workplace technology. As Aston Martin continues to explore new ways of enabling our workforce, experience with AI-powered workplace capabilities, Microsoft 365 Copilot, automation, experience analytics or digital workplace transformation initiatives will be a distinct advantage.
While this role does not include direct line management responsibility, it carries significant influence across the organisation. You'll coach and guide colleagues, build strong relationships with stakeholders and partners, and help bring teams together to solve challenges and deliver better outcomes.

What We Offer
We're looking for someone who enjoys taking ownership, challenging the status quo and turning complex problems into simple, scalable solutions. Someone who can see beyond individual technologies and focus on the experience we're ultimately creating for our people.
In return, you'll have the opportunity to shape the future of the digital workplace within one of the world's most iconic luxury brands. You'll influence strategic decisions, improve established services, introduce new capabilities and help ensure Aston Martin remains ready for the changing demands of the modern workplace.
The role is based at Gaydon with hybrid working and occasional travel to other Aston Martin locations. There may also be occasions where out-of-hours support is required in response to major incidents, significant service releases or critical business events.
If you're passionate about creating workplace technology experiences that genuinely make a difference, and you want the opportunity to shape how people work within one of the world's most recognised automotive brands, we'd love to hear from you.
