T&G is entering a new chapter in technology.
We're building a new technology leadership team to help shape how T&G works, grows and connects around the world. At the heart of that future are the platforms, data and technology foundations that allow us to operate reliably today and innovate tomorrow.
We're looking for a Head of Data & Platform Engineering to lead T&G's data, analytics, AI, IoT, cloud and technology platform capability.
This is one of the broadest technology leadership roles in our new structure.
You'll lead the capabilities that sit underneath much of T&G's technology future, from enterprise data and analytics platforms through to AI, IoT, cloud, infrastructure and networks.
You'll balance two equally important priorities: operational excellence and modernisation.
Our platforms need to be secure, resilient and cost-effective, while also creating the foundations for better data, AI, automation and digital innovation.
You'll work closely with the CIO, CISO, Enterprise Architecture and business leaders to create a coherent platform strategy and turn it into practical, scalable capability.
You'll be an experienced technology leader who can bridge data, cloud and platform engineering with operational technology and infrastructure.
You'll bring significant leadership experience across data platforms, cloud infrastructure and platform engineering, together with experience leading complex hybrid environments.
You'll understand what it takes to run reliable infrastructure while also modernising the underlying technology and creating new capability.
Experience across enterprise data and analytics platforms will be important, as will strong knowledge of cloud and modern engineering practices.
We're particularly interested in leaders who can connect the dots between data, AI, infrastructure and the physical world. Experience with IoT, advanced analytics or complex operational environments would be valuable.
You'll also bring the commercial and financial capability to manage significant technology investment, vendor relationships and platform costs.
This is an opportunity to shape the technology foundations of a global business where technology has a tangible connection to the real world.
T&G isn't simply a digital business. We're growing, packing, moving and selling fresh produce across countries and markets. Our technology helps connect those operations, turn data into insight and create new opportunities for how we work and grow.
You'll have the scope to modernise our platforms, enable data and AI, strengthen resilience and build capability for the future.
It's a role for someone who enjoys complexity, thinks beyond individual technology domains and wants to build platforms that make a real difference.
Build the foundations for what's next.

We want T&G to be a place where everyone is accepted, respected and celebrated for who they are – regardless of our similarities or differences. It’s essential that everyone can be themselves and thrive, and that together we create a diverse and vibrant workplace.
Our story began over125 years ago as Turners and Growers, and today as T&G Global, we help grow healthier futures for people around the world.
Located in 13 countries, our team of 2,000 people both grow and partner with over 1,200 growers to market, sell and distribute nutritious fresh produce to customers and consumers in over 60 countries. As kaitiaki, we do this guided by kaitiakitanga. For us, this means we treat the land, people, produce, resources, and community with the greatest of respect and care, as guardians of their future.
