As Head of IT & Systems, you’ll play a key role in shaping and leading our Systems function as we continue to grow at pace. With an exciting next stage of growth ahead, you’ll ensure we have the right systems, technology and infrastructure in place to support the business as it evolves. You’ll own our systems strategy and roadmap, working closely with senior stakeholders across the business to prioritise initiatives, manage resources and make sure we’re investing in the right technology at the right time.
You’ll make an impact by providing strategic direction across our systems landscape and ensuring our technology and infrastructure are ready to support the next stage of our growth. You’ll balance long-term systems development with operational resilience and day-to-day business needs, while leading a team and building strong relationships across the wider business.
This is a strategic and commercially focused role where you’ll directly lead our Senior IT & Systems Manager, AI Architect and work closely with wider business stakeholders to turn business priorities into structured, achievable systems initiatives. You’ll also take ownership of governance, oversee supplier relationships, budgets and strategic delivery, ensuring projects are well planned, effectively managed and deliver measurable value.
If you’re an experienced leader who thrives on building strong relationships, managing competing priorities and can confidently balance commercial needs with emerging technology needs, risk and resilience, this could be the perfect position for you.
The role is Monday – Friday 9am–5pm. You’ll enjoy the exciting buzz of our friendly offices in Banbury, Oxfordshire three times a week on average, with the flexibility to work from home for the remaining two days.
We’re a family-run, entrepreneurial company with an exciting pace of life and a bright and friendly team. We are passionate about creating stunning products with a personal touch and innovating our business behind the scenes. We value creativity, collaboration and integrity.
Joma Jewellery was founded in 2008 by Katie and Geoff Loxton, since then we have gone from strength to strength, launching Katie Loxton in 2015 and growing our business beyond the UK. We know that part of that growth comes from the fact that we take diversity and inclusion very seriously. We strive to be the best in our field, and we know that happens by hiring a diverse team and encouraging everyone to be their authentic selves when working with us. We don’t hire based on cultures, preferences, or personalities – it’s what you bring to the team that counts.
We are always striving to improve our way of working to be more inclusive, diverse and equal, including encouraging all team members to bring their ideas to the table as we know this is key to our continued success.
Our story began in 2008 when our founders Katie and Geoff Loxton became inspired to create beautiful jewellery that celebrates the big and little moments in life - Joma Jewelley was launched. From our collectible ‘A Little’ bracelets for every occasion to our much-loved personalised ‘A Little’ bracelet, our keepsake styles make for the most perfect gifting moment.
Katie Loxton was then established in 2015 after seeing a gap in the market for gorgeous personalised pieces that excite, delight and elevate every look. Perfectly complementing our Joma Jewellery styles, Katie Loxton offers a carefully curated collection of stunning fashion and lifestyle accessories - think personalised vegan-leather handbags, stationary and sweet home fragrance - that make cherished gifts and are a joy to own!
With a massive focus on personalisation, from embroidery to initial charms to customisable bow gift bags, the ethos for both brands has always been to create luxury, high quality products but at an affordable price point, enabling our customers to add that little bit of luxury to their every day. All of our products are designed in the UK by Katie and the team, and made by suppliers across the globe.
