Job description

ODI is seeking an exceptional Head of Global IT—a high‑calibre technology leader with high emotional intelligence, servant‑hearted authenticity, and a deep passion for strengthening the most persecuted Christians and praying for their connection with the global Church.

This individual will embody ODI’s ministry‑driven purpose, continually improving our operational effectiveness and safeguarding our security as we serve the persecuted Church. If you’re a mission‑aligned IT leader who thrives on building resilient systems that empower global ministry, this could be your next calling.

The primary responsibilities of the Head of Global IT are:

• Global IT team leadership and management (approximately 25 staff & contractors)
This includes business analysis, project and program management, solution design and selection, technical architecture, software development and maintenance, customer support, infrastructure, and cybersecurity.

• Alignment through influence
Build strong, trust‑based relationships with executives and functional leaders across fundraising and field operations, using influence, communication, and demonstrable value to drive voluntary alignment.

• AI and innovation
Champion the adoption of AI and automation (e.g., business analysis, software development, analytics, workflows, decision support) to improve program effectiveness, supporter engagement, and internal efficiency.
Promote the Enterprise Architecture, AI, and innovation processes to identify emerging technologies to help drive solutions that increase the value of IT support and services.

• Cybersecurity
Ensure effective cybersecurity posture globally, including policies, awareness, identity and access management, monitoring, incident response, and alignment with relevant standards and regulations.

• Global IT governance
This includes standards and policies that balance consistency with local flexibility, in close partnership with international leadership, fundraising bases, and field operational entities.
Lead and facilitate the creation of governing principles and a board to guide EA and AI decision‑making (e.g., foci, prioritization, value realization, allocation of roles and responsibilities) to enable the long‑term Ministry strategy.

• IT portfolio and program management
This relates to major technology initiatives, ensuring alignment with strategy, clear business cases, disciplined prioritization, and on‑time, on‑budget delivery.

• Infrastructure
Oversee Azure and Microsoft‑centric infrastructure, collaboration platforms (e.g., M365/Teams/SharePoint), and core business applications, ensuring reliability, scalability, and security for a 60+ country footprint.

• Networking
Provide oversight of vendors, partners, and outsourcing relationships to maximize quality, cost‑effectiveness, and mission fit.

Your Key Qualities

Open Doors believes that spiritual maturity, character, and behaviour are as important as competence. Therefore, the Head of Global IT is:

• A devoted follower of Jesus with a heart to strengthen persecuted Christians.
• Prayerful and able to take IT decisions founded on faith in God.
• Able to build strong relationships across national cultures.
• Able to empower others and intentionally develop future IT leaders.
• Prepared to make difficult decisions and have honest conversations with grace.
• Active in a local church that supports their vocation and provides spiritual support.
• Emotionally intelligent and aware of the impact of their leadership on people.
• Able to communicate complex topics in simple, compelling language for non‑technical leaders.
• Strong in integrity, stewardship, and accountability, recognizing the responsibility of managing donor‑funded resources.
• Experienced in negotiating and influencing at a senior level, combined with strong interpersonal and collaboration skills.
• Proven IT skills and experience in the areas of:
o Technology and architecture.
o Delivery and methods: proficiency in business analysis, requirements elicitation, and solution evaluation.
o Data, AI, and process improvement, including process mapping, optimization, and automation.
