CIO Advisory Consultant, Ghent

Make transformation reach beyond technology

You bring structure to complexity. Where others see disconnected puzzle pieces (strategy, processes, technology, people). You see the whole picture. As a CIO advisor at delaware, you are the link between what an organisation wants to achieve and how it anchors that architecturally. You think in models, but you also stand firmly inside the client organisation (understanding their world from the outside in).

Who are we?

Our

Business Transformation&Adoption unit , bringing together a broad community of consultants, focuses on delivering tangible business value through technology. We work closely with our customers to design, implement, and optimise business applications that support their core processes and strategic goals. Operating across industries and collaborating intensively with our technical and functional experts, we translate business needs into robust, future‑proof solutions that drive efficiency, scalability, and innovation.

You’ll join a close‑knit team of experienced advisors who actively coach and challenge you. You get the space to work independently while growing in content, methodology and commercial craft. No two projects are alike.

We work where we work best, when we work best. delaware has offices in Antwerp, Ghent, Kortrijk, Liège, Lummen, and Wavre. At the same time, being close to our customers is key: you’ll regularly be on the road, working on‑site with customer teams to understand their context, co‑create solutions, and ensure successful delivery.

What you’ll do?

Translate business strategy into architecture: value streams, capabilities, operating models and roadmaps that actually get executed.

Bring an outside‑in perspective (market dynamics, sector trends, the CIO's agenda and make it tangible for the client).

Collaborate closely with enterprise and IT architects as well as C‑level business stakeholders. You are their sounding board and their navigator.

Conduct maturity assessments of clients' IT and business landscapes and translate findings into concrete priorities and transformation roadmaps.

Tap into delaware's broad network of technology and domain experts from SAP to data to cloud to bring the right expertise to the table at the right moment. You are the connector between the client and the collective.

Support the definition of target operating models, governance structures and change plans.

Actively contribute to our methodology and help shape the growth of the BTA practice.

Is there a match?

You can take charge of a situation– that's for sure. You have proven this multiple times in your past few years in a leadership role. You can lead a team, are able to motivate people and find your way within the organization, have a proper network to kickstart the CIO advisory service.

If a problem arises, you are efficient, analytical and can show quick problem‑solving skills as a result. You have strong strategic ambitions and are eager to work in a client‑facing, quality‑driven environment.

Qualifications

You hold a master’s degree (business, computer science or equivalent) and have 5 to 8 years of relevant experience in enterprise or business architecture, preferably in a consulting environment.

You are at home with architectural concepts such as value streams, capabilities and process modelling. A certification (TOGAF, BIZBOK or equivalent) is a plus.

You combine strong analytical thinking with a genuine feel for the human and organisational side of change.
