We want to become the most human-centred telecom provider in the Netherlands. That might sound odd from an IT or network role, but that's exactly where it starts. Because without stable systems, a reliable network and smart technology there's no conversation, no connection, no trust. You make sure everything runs, even when nobody notices. And that's precisely the point. Even if the customer doesn't see you, your impact is felt in every conversation, every connection and every moment it just works. Because when the technology is solid, people can work, customers can be helped, and trust is built.

At Odido we're there for each other. We see each other's talents. We listen and always look at what's possible, technically, personally and in the way we work together. Because you're at your best when you can grow, Odido gives you all the space you need for that. Together we look at where your ambition and talent lie and make sure you get the opportunities to grow in your own way, whether that's deeper technical specialisation, a broader architect role, or a step towards tech leadership.

At Odido, you build and manage critical infrastructure at a national scale; ensuring reliability, performance, and security for millions of customers. You work on technology that truly matters, with a direct impact on how our network and IT services perform every day.

In return, we offer a competitive salary and a well-balanced total rewards package, including:

• A role-based bonus aligned with your performance;
• 30 days of annual leave (full-time), plus an extra day off after Ascension Day;
• Hybrid working model: 3 days in the office and 2 days from home;
• A €350 voucher to choose your own mobile phone; yours to keep;
• A personal learning budget and access to more than 200 training courses;
• A solid pension plan through Zwitserleven;
• Discounts on your Odido Internet & TV or Klik & Klaar subscription;
• A bike lease scheme for sustainable commuting;
• Employer contribution to your gym membership;
• Access to a wide range of discounts on products and services.

We work together to deliver stable, scalable, and future-proof technology; and we celebrate the impact we make.

In short: you build what keeps us running, your work is visible, and you’re supported to keep growing.

Some things you cannot learn at university, but you possess them by nature.

You're curious, authentic and naturally able to connect with people. You understand different perspectives, recognize what really matters and have the confidence to challenge decisions when necessary.

You don't need a formal reporting line to lead. People listen to you because you bring clarity, demonstrate good judgment and create an environment where others want to contribute.

You're comfortable navigating complexity without making things unnecessarily complicated. You know when to push, when to listen and when to give people the space to find their own solutions.

You combine a strong sense of ownership with empathy and understand that successful delivery depends just as much on people and relationships as it does on plans, budgets and milestones.

You bring the following experience and expertise:

• Bachelor or Master working and thinking level, combined with approximately 10 years of experience in senior IT delivery, transformation, portfolio or program leadership roles.
• Demonstrated experience leading complex, cross-domain IT initiatives, preferably within Cloud & Infrastructure, Network or similarly demanding technology environments.
• Strong understanding of delivery governance, roadmap planning, dependency management and execution across multiple teams and stakeholders.
• Proven experience managing significant budgets, business cases, financial performance and benefits realization.
• The ability to influence senior leadership, including executive stakeholders, and build alignment across business, technology and external partners.
• Strong analytical and communication skills, with the ability to translate complex delivery challenges into clear insights, priorities and recommendations.
• Experience providing functional leadership to multidisciplinary teams, developing delivery capabilities and driving results in a matrix organization.

You will be our ideal candidate when…

• You've worked in a complex technology environment where multiple teams, priorities and dependencies need to come together to deliver meaningful results.
• Experience in telecommunications or large-scale IT and Network organization would be valuable, particularly if you're familiar with infrastructure modernization, operational dependencies and technology-driven transformation.
• You understand that governance should enable progress rather than create unnecessary bureaucracy.
• You can challenge senior stakeholders without creating resistance, make difficult trade-offs without losing sight of people and recognize when a team needs direction rather than another meeting.

And perhaps most importantly…

• You know how to create momentum without relying on hierarchy.

You must already live in the Netherlands, preferably within ~50 km of The Hague, and you’ll work at least 4 days per week from our Den Haag office.

Even though we have many different colleagues, we look for a few typical Odido traits in every new team member. You need to be able to handle a changing organisation. The world of communications changes every day, and we need to grow along with it. Being naturally curious and interested in the technology we work with and the industry we're in helps enormously.
