About the Company

This organisation is recognised globally for its long-term focus and commitment to doing things differently. With a strong purpose-driven culture and ongoing investment in digital innovation, the business continues to grow by building technology that supports millions of users. Teams work in a collaborative, inclusive environment where experimentation, continuous improvement, and professional development are encouraged.

About the Role

We’re seeking a Mobile Technical Lead to drive the next chapter of a key customer-facing mobile app. Working with a growing cross-functional team, you’ll be responsible for shaping the technical direction, championing delivery practices, and ensuring mobile solutions are scalable, performant, and intuitive. You’ll play a pivotal role in defining release strategies, guiding technical output, and bridging communication between engineers, product managers, and stakeholders. With a strong focus on platform thinking over one-off features, you’ll have the opportunity to influence not just the app, but how mobile development is approached across the organisation.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead the technical direction for mobile app development, ensuring best practices in architecture, scalability, and delivery.
• Partner with architects and stakeholders to implement high-performance mobile solutions.
• Drive release strategies, technical pipelines, and continuous improvement initiatives.
• Mentor engineers on mobile development practices and platform optimisation.
• Collaborate with product owners and global partners to align technology with business goals.
• Contribute to building a strong culture of collaboration, inclusion, and innovation.
• Support ongoing improvements through client feedback, platform upgrades, and new feature development.

Skills & Experience

• Strong experience in mobile development, ideally with React Native at scale.
• Knowledge of iOS and Android environments and mobile-first development practices.
• Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines, app monitoring tools, and cloud environments (AWS preferred).
• Excellent communication skills, with the ability to explain complex technical concepts to both technical and non-technical audiences.
• Proven track record of leading delivery across teams, balancing business outcomes with technical excellence.
• Experience in financial services is a plus, but a background in platform or product-led environments is more important.

This is a rare opportunity to step into a high-impact technical leadership role within a company investing heavily in its mobile future. If this sounds interesting, apply now!
