Have you got what it takes to do the biggest job in IT in the entire world?

Santa's CIO is leaving, and Computing, with sponsorship from Intel, is running a competition to find his successor. The ideal candidate will be a truly forward-thinking and visionary technologist who can add the magic of technology to the magic of Christmas, in line with the corporate strategy and the core values of the Christmas brand.

Can you rise to the major tech challenges of Christmas and realise the huge opportunities that modernisation can deliver, whilst being sympathetic to the expectations of our key stake-holders (the kids stupid!)? It's the IT exec's dream job:

• Reporting directly to the CEO and Founder of Christmas himself, Fr. Sant A. Claus, who just so happens to be the most supportive boss, ever.

• Define the technology strategy and infrastructure for one of the world's best known and most loved brands.

• A practically unlimited budget (CapEx or OpEx it's all TCO to Santa).
   
• The freedom to work with leading edge technology to deliver ‘first mover' and early adopter advantage.

Sorry, this competition is now closed.
