Director, Technology Business Management

Our client is a large, Fortune 500 insurance organization undergoing significant enterprise transformation. Over the past several years, they've completed three major acquisitions and continue to invest heavily in modernizing their technology organization.

As a result, they're creating a highly visible Director of Technology Business Management (TBM) to help IT leadership make smarter investment decisions through strategic cost management, technology business management, and value optimization.

We're looking for someone who combines the strategic thinking of a management consultant with the execution mindset needed to influence a large, matrixed enterprise. You'll partner directly with executive technology leaders to improve cost transparency, evaluate technology investments, build compelling business cases, and ensure every technology dollar is aligned with business value.

This position sits within IT Finance & Analytics but operates as a true strategic partner to IT leadership.

What You'll Do:

• Lead Technology Business Management (TBM) initiatives across the enterprise IT organization.
• Drive technology cost transparency and identify opportunities for cost and value optimization.
• Partner with executive technology leaders to evaluate strategic investments and technology roadmaps.
• Develop executive-level business cases supporting technology initiatives, modernization efforts, and capital investments.
• Build financial models that help leadership prioritize technology investments based on business impact.
• Partner with Cloud Engineering and Infrastructure teams on FinOps and cloud spend optimization initiatives.
• Analyze technology contracts, vendor spend, licensing, and operational costs to identify optimization opportunities.
• Evaluate technical debt and develop recommendations around modernization investments.
• Support technology due diligence and financial planning for mergers and acquisitions, including onboarding newly acquired organizations.
• Present recommendations and strategic insights to executive leadership and influence technology investment decisions.

What We're Looking For:

We're seeking someone who brings a blend of Technology Business Management, IT Finance, and management consulting experience.

The ideal candidate has experience with:

• Technology Business Management (TBM)
• Strategic cost management
• Technology investment planning
• Business case development
• FinOps and cloud cost optimization
• IT financial management
• Vendor and contract analysis
• Executive-level consulting and presentations
• Cross-functional leadership within large, matrixed organizations

Ideal Background

This role is an excellent fit for someone who is currently a Manager, Senior Manager, or newer Director at a leading consulting firm or who recently transitioned into industry.

Backgrounds from firms such as Accenture, Deloitte, PwC, EY, or KPMG are especially attractive.

Candidates should bring experience helping enterprise technology organizations improve operational efficiency, optimize technology spend, and make strategic investment decisions, not simply managing budgets.

Why This Role?

• This is a unique opportunity to sit at the intersection of Finance, Technology, and Executive Strategy.
• You'll work directly alongside senior IT leadership, influence enterprise technology investment decisions, and help shape the future of a technology organization undergoing significant growth and transformation.
• If you enjoy solving complex business problems, partnering with executives, and bringing consulting-level rigor to technology strategy, this is an opportunity to make a meaningful impact.

Location:

• Remote
• Preference for candidates located in the Central U.S. (Dallas/Plano area preferred)
