Nearform is a global digital engineering consultancy at the forefront of AI-native transformation. We partner with the world's most ambitious organisations to design, build and scale digital products and platforms. As we embark on our own AI-native engineering transformation, the Transformation Office (TO) sits at the heart of this evolution — driving the strategic and operational change needed across our Delivery and Go-to-Market (GTM) teams.
The TO Programme Director will be a senior change leader responsible for driving Nearform's AI transformation. This is a strategic, hands-on role that bridges programme governance, workforce planning, talent strategy, and cultural change — ensuring our Delivery and GTM organisations are equipped, structured, and empowered to operate as a truly AI-native business and our back office functions are embracing AI and realising the efficiencies. A key focus is on establishing Nearform’s AI CoE in Ireland.
This role will lead the planning, coordination and execution of complex, cross-functional transformation programmes — working in close partnership with Delivery leadership, People & Talent, GTM teams, shared services and the Executive team.

Nearform hires across Europe and the Americas, with current openings tied to Ireland, the UK, the US, Canada, Italy, Poland, Romania, and Brazil. Roles are anchored to a specific country for employment purposes, but the team can also temporarily relocate and work from anywhere for up to 90 days.
Benefits include medical coverage for US employees, 401(k) and regional retirement plans, and a dedicated wellness hub focused on employee wellbeing. Nearform also provides generous access to training, so people can drive their own development through knowledge sharing and open-source work.
Yes. Nearform describes itself as remote-first but not remote-only. The team gathers at its annual Nearfest retreat, along with team co-working days and local community dinners throughout the year.
Nearform looks for engineers and problem-solvers who value craft, clarity, and responsibility, and who prefer substance over hype. Knowledge sharing and open-source contribution are part of the culture, so it fits people who care about engineering quality and enjoy working in the open.
Recent and current roles span AI and Python engineering, React and Node.js development, DevOps, and knowledge-graph work. Nearform delivers these as client projects for large enterprises rather than building a single internal product, so the problems and domains you work on shift over time.
