Job Description

Role Overview:

As the Group R&D Director, you will hold strategic oversight of all R&D activities, deploying world-class methodologies and optimizing processes to enhance departmental operations. You will focus on offering strategic guidance, challenging existing processes, driving collaboration, and providing strong technical leadership across the organization.

You will be responsible for the delivery methodology of all new products, working closely with established and knowledgeable Technology Group leadership teams. By working 'on the process, not in it,' you will ensure that all projects are delivered on time, in full, and within budget, adhering to specifications and optimizing the utilization of company resources.

Your ability to foster strong collaborative relationships with key stakeholders, both in the UK and internationally, will be crucial in aligning expectations and adopting best practice across the board.

Key Responsibilities:
  • Challenge and improve existing working practices to enhance efficiency, reduce time to market, maintain traceability, and minimize risk.
  • Steer the R&D function to deliver agreed technology programmes on time, within budget, and to specification, in accordance with company policies and industry regulations.
  • Build and coordinate collaboration across group R&D functions, leading the delivery of inter-business projects.
  • Set and align technical strategies with overall business goals, facilitating group-wide collaboration where necessary.
  • Innovate and implement new processes and adopt technologies to maintain a competitive advantage and advance departmental capabilities.
  • Utilize stakeholder feedback to identify and drive areas for improvement.
  • Develop strong partnerships with suppliers to support collaborative project delivery.
  • Develop and implement ongoing training programmes to enhance staff skills and knowledge.
The Ideal Candidate:
  • Proven experience in a leadership role driving R&D operations at a strategic level.
  • Demonstrated success in driving departmental change through project management methodologies and IT systems that enhance R&D delivery.
  • Strong understanding of fast-paced R&D design processes, ongoing engineering changes, and new product introduction (NPI), with a solid grasp of fundamental engineering principles.
  • Commercial acumen, with the ability to balance priorities for maximum impact and alignment with broader business needs.
  • Strong analytical, critical reasoning, and effective decision-making skills.
  • Excellent collaborator with experience managing stakeholders across domestic and international operations.
  • Engaging and motivating team player with exceptional communication, networking, and influencing skills.
