As a Principal IT Business Partner, you will serve as the primary interface between domain stakeholders and IT, ensuring alignment between domain priorities, technology strategy, demand, and delivery outcomes. You will report directly to the Director, IT Transformation Management Office (TMO) & Business Partners.
In this role, you will serve as the strategic IT Business Partner for a Strategic Business Group (SBG), region, or functional domain, acting as the primary liaison between domain leadership and IT. You will help shape domain demand, align technology investments to strategic priorities, and ensure successful delivery of domain outcomes through effective governance, stakeholder engagement, and value realization. Rather than serving as a functional subject matter expert, you will leverage domain acumen and technology leadership to connect domain strategy with enterprise capabilities, delivery teams, and transformation initiatives.
At Solstice, our people are critical to our success. Success in this role will be defined by your ability to build strong partnerships with Solstice IT professionals and vendors, develop a deep understanding of domain functions, and minimize friction between domain expectations and IT delivery.
