DNK-Randers, Danish Crown Vej
Do you combine a strategic mindset with the ability to turn priorities into execution? And would you like to play a central role in shaping governance, portfolio management and organisational effectiveness across Global IT?
As Senior Director, Office of the CIO, you will work closely with the CIO and serve as a member of the Global IT leadership team. As one of the CIO’s closest strategic partners, you will have significant influence on the direction and effectiveness of Global IT, helping translate strategic priorities into clear governance, transparent decisions and disciplined execution across the organisation.
You will lead the Office of the CIO and have responsibility for strengthening the structures, processes and management practices that enable Global IT to deliver business value. The role combines strategy, portfolio governance, organisational transformation and leadership support in an international and complex environment.
A key part of your role will be to create overview, alignment and momentum across strategic initiatives, transformation programmes and major projects. You will lead the Head of IT PMO and, together with the IT PMO function, develop the portfolio intake and prioritisation process, support investment decisions and ensure transparency on progress, capacity, dependencies, risks and expected value.
You will also develop and document the Global IT operating model, including governance forums, decision rights, management cadence and escalation paths. In close collaboration with leaders and specialists across Global IT and corporate functions, you will help connect plans, budgets, resources, vendors, organisational changes and delivery priorities.
Beyond governance and portfolio management, you will support the effectiveness of the leadership team. This includes planning and facilitating Core Leadership Team meetings and workshops, ensuring clear decisions and ownership, and following up on agreed actions. You will also contribute to onboarding new IT leaders and strengthening leadership collaboration across Global IT.
You bring leadership experience from a complex IT or technology-driven environment and have worked with organisational transformation and operating model development. You are comfortable navigating ambiguity and change, and you know how to create structure without adding unnecessary complexity.
You combine strategic perspective with a practical and results-oriented approach. You can challenge constructively, bring stakeholders together and follow through until decisions are translated into action. At the same time, you communicate clearly and confidently with senior leaders and build trust across organisational boundaries.
This is an opportunity to take on a broad and influential leadership role at the centre of Global IT. Working closely with the CIO and contributing as a member of the Global IT leadership team, you will help shape key priorities and decisions across the organisation. The role offers significant scope to influence how Global IT prioritises, collaborates and executes, while advancing transformation and stronger business value delivery.

The Danish Crown Group is a global food processing company and among the largest in its field. The Group is the world’s largest pork exporter and Europe’s largest pork processor. Furthermore, Danish Crown Beef is a significant player in the European beef market.
Just like the crops in the fields continuously change, Danish Crown tirelessly refine and improve how we work, from farm to fork, to ensure good, safe food for people around the world to enjoy. Our history goes back to 1887 and the Danish cooperative movement, and responsibility towards society, our employees and our owners, the farmers, is quite simply in our genes.
As a global leader in meat production, we have big obligations; not just to deliver, but to explore new opportunities. We still have a long way to go and face many challenges. But we remain committed to improving how food is produced - with respect for animals, people and the environment. In this quest, we are prepared to challenge ourselves, the industry and the market.
This journey is not ours alone, but we promise to be the leaders of change.
You will become a part of a strong culture with roots in the Danish co-operative movement, and at all levels of the organization, you will be met by an informal and direct tone.
