IT Business Partner

IT is an integral part of the Siemens business and its strategy as a technology company. Together with the business, IT drive the internal digitalization and the development of digital products at the core of the business, driving business outcomes, leading IT/OT convergence and acting as one global team.

A rare opportunity has become available to join our award-winning IT team in the UK as an IT Business Partner

As a team we operate in a culture where creativity and a growth mindset are actively encouraged, as is continuous development; we are given the freedom and autonomy to push boundaries and make an impact. In this role you will constantly be learning, about our varied business processes, cutting edge technology and even about yourself! You will be expected to identify areas of digital opportunity and then deliver IT solutions to realise them.

No day is the same in this job... we must be responsive to our customers but also engage with our global IT network to deliver against our targets. You will sometimes be working solo, sometimes in a local team and always in a diverse global team in IT. There are nearly fifty IT employees in our UK community and while we mostly work remotely, we regularly come together in person to keep our community active and ensure we are connected.
