You will be part of a small team of IT Business Partners who collectively support businesses and functions within Siemens Plc, reporting directly to the Head of IT. Our team is based in Poole and Manchester, so the role can be based at either site. Guided by Siemens' forward-thinking hybrid working policy, the team spends 2-3 days a week in the office. We support many sites in the UK, so occasional domestic and international travel is required.

Continuous development is key; we are given the freedom and autonomy to push boundaries and make an impact. In this role, you will constantly be learning about our multifaceted business processes, cutting-edge technology, and even about yourself!
