Director, Digital Presence

Overview

Lead a global digital platform transformation – and shape how the world experiences IRIS.

At IRIS Software Group, we provide essential software that helps organisations run smarter – from ensuring employees get paid on time, to enabling schools, accountants and HR teams to deliver their best work every day.

Now, as we continue to scale globally, we’re investing in a major transformation of our digital estate – and we’re hiring a Director of Digital Presence to lead that journey.

This isn’t a design refresh or short-term campaign role. It’s a senior strategic position focused on the consolidation, modernisation, and governance of our global web platform – ensuring IRIS shows up consistently, accessibly, and effectively across all regions, brands, and audiences.

 

🧩 What Will You Be Doing?

IRIS has grown significantly through acquisition – which means our current web presence is broad, fragmented, and inconsistent. Your mission will be to lead a multi-phase programme to consolidate, replatform and scale our digital estate – unifying dozens of brand, product and regional sites into a streamlined, high-performing platform.

You’ll take full ownership of the long-term roadmap – from IA, content strategy and governance to CMS operations and global stakeholder alignment.

This is a complex and high-impact role – perfect for someone who’s delivered enterprise-scale transformation and wants to build something that lasts.

• Lead full-scale website consolidation and replatforming – simplifying a fragmented global estate into a single, strategic platform
• Deliver cross-market and cross-brand alignment – enabling consistency across the UK, US, EMEA and beyond, while allowing for localisation where it matters
• Own platform strategy end to end – including IA, content structure, governance models, CMS operations, and integration with marketing systems
• Work across the enterprise – aligning business units, markets and senior stakeholders around a shared roadmap
• Lead global, cross-functional delivery – including teams across UX, content, development, analytics, and operations
• Embed scalable governance and compliance – ensuring digital standards, accessibility and operational excellence
• Drive long-term impact – with a digital platform that supports lead generation, engagement, and business growth

 

💡 Who Are We Looking For?

We’re looking for a senior digital leader with experience operating in global, complex organisations — and the confidence to turn ambition into action. You’ll need:

• Proven success leading large-scale website consolidation or replatforming projects
• Experience working across multi-brand, multi-language, multi-region platforms
• Background in matrixed enterprise organisations (ideally 5,000+ employees)
• Strong understanding of platform strategy – including architecture, governance, IA, and operations (not just marketing or UX)
• A track record of working with senior global stakeholders and aligning priorities across regions
• Sector experience in enterprise B2B or B2B2C (e.g. software, professional services, consulting, regulated industries)
• Hands-on leadership of cross-functional teams spanning UX, content, development, and analytics

We’re looking for someone who has built and evolved complex global platforms over time – and knows what it takes to make them work.

 

🌱 Why Apply?

• Lead one of the most significant digital programmes in our global strategy
• Full ownership of digital platform delivery and roadmap
• Collaborate closely with C-suite and regional leadership
• Shape the future of how IRIS is experienced online
• Join a high-growth enterprise with a collaborative, people-first culture.
