About Digital & Technology
The right candidate will join a group of tech-savvy talents who are committed to the following behavioral tenets:
1 - Relentless on What Matters
We channel our energy into what truly matters—delivering strategic business outcomes that move the business forward. Every solution we build is anchored in our stakeholders’ priorities. We deliver with speed and adapt quickly if value realization falters.
2 - Designing with Heart
We design with heart—putting our users at the centre of everything we create. Every product, every experience, every solution is crafted to make their work simpler, more connected, and more meaningful. When our users thrive, we succeed—because their wins are our wins.
3 - Stronger as One
We move as one—breaking down walls and silos to unite Engagement, Product Domains, and Tech Foundations as a single force. Together with global and business teams, we champion what’s right for the business, not what’s easy or just ticking boxes.
4 - Fueling Each Other’s Fire
We are leaders who inspire and empower—as player-coaches who see the spark in every individual and help it grow. We celebrate strengths, lift each other up, and with conviction and resilience reject the scarcity mindset that dims innovation.
