The Vacancy
Every day, thousands of colleagues, partners and volunteers across the Islamic Relief family rely on technology to raise funds, deliver humanitarian programmes, support finance operations, collaborate globally and make informed decisions. When our systems work well, people can focus on serving communities affected by poverty, disasters and conflict.
We're looking for an experienced ICT Solutions & Integration Manager to ensure our technology enables our humanitarian mission. This is a senior leadership role responsible for shaping our applications landscape, integration strategy and solution delivery capability across a global organisation. The role is not limited to maintaining individual applications. It is an opportunity to provide leadership, influence strategic decisions and help shape the future of business technology at Islamic Relief.
You will be responsible for ensuring that technology investments deliver meaningful organisational value, supporting colleagues across multiple countries and functions. You will lead a multidisciplinary team of business analysts, developers, project professionals and application specialists, fostering a culture of collaboration, innovation and continuous improvement.
Working closely with senior stakeholders across the organisation, you will:
-
Shape the future direction of our business applications portfolio.
-
Lead the selection, implementation and optimisation of new solutions.
-
Improve integration, interoperability and data flows across systems.
-
Simplify and rationalise technology where appropriate.
-
Ensure technology decisions balance value, risk, cost and long-term sustainability.
-
Deliver solutions that improve the experience of staff and enable better outcomes for the people we serve.
Who we’re looking for:
You may currently be a Solutions Manager, Applications Manager, IT Manager, Digital Systems Manager or Technology Leader looking for an opportunity to have broader organisational influence.
We're looking for someone who can demonstrate:
-
Experience leading teams responsible for enterprise applications and digital solutions.
-
Experience delivering complex business systems and technology-enabled change.
-
Strong understanding of systems integration, business processes and data flows.
-
The ability to engage and influence stakeholders at all levels.
-
Commercial awareness and sound judgement when balancing competing priorities.
-
A passion for building capable teams and developing people.
-
The ability to see technology through a business lens rather than a purely technical one.

Our Values and Commitment to Safeguarding
Islamic Relief Worldwide is committed to preventing any form of unwanted behaviour at work, including sexual harassment, exploitation and abuse, and any lack of integrity or financial misconduct. We’re equally committed to promoting the welfare of the children, young people, adults and beneficiaries we work with, and we expect every member of staff and every volunteer to share that commitment through our code of conduct. We recruit for values as much as for skills.
Successful candidates will complete safeguarding training appropriate to the role, and are responsible for understanding and working within our safeguarding policies. All offers of employment are subject to satisfactory references and screening, which can include criminal records checks.
Islamic Relief Worldwide takes part in the Inter Agency Misconduct Disclosure Scheme. In line with the scheme, we request information from previous employers about any findings of sexual exploitation, sexual abuse or sexual harassment, including incidents still under investigation when an applicant left their previous role. By applying, candidates confirm they understand this process.
