Chapter Lead - Digital

As a Chapter Lead, you'll focus more on how we work than what we deliver. You'll lead, inspire and develop colleagues within your chapter, ensuring they are deployed to the right squads to maximise both customer outcomes and colleague growth. As a servant leader, you'll foster a culture of learning, knowledge sharing and continuous improvement, while supporting hiring, onboarding and capability development.

You'll also remain hands-on in a squad, applying and developing your own expertise while acting as a recognised leader in your craft across Tesco Mobile.

Importantly, as our capability continues to grow and mature, the scope of this role may evolve over time. While the chapter currently spans a broad range of disciplines, future growth may lead to greater specialisation, with Chapter Leads focusing on a more defined area of expertise while increasing their depth of mastery, leadership and influence within that discipline.

As a Chapter Lead, you will play a leading role in building and evolving world‑class capabilities across Tesco Mobile. You will define standards and ways of working that enable teams to deliver customer‑led, data‑driven outcomes, while supporting the continued growth, development and success of colleagues within your chapter.
