Here’s the relevant text of the ad (I think, I cut out the part about the company itself and a bit at the end for recruiters). Feel free to tell me what the hell it’s about:

There is a document at the bottom you can click on that says it is a job description. Good luck figuring out that one either.
Seems pretty straightforward to me. They want someone to run their Digital Development department. Overseeing the department in a managerial role, but they also want someone with technical skills so you actually know what’s going on and can effectively manage the personnel/job requirements, and communicate what it is your department does and plans to do to shareholders.
As far as the “technical skills” you need? Well… without knowing what this business is, I can’t further define that. Considering it’s a Digital Development department and they talk about “continuous improvement and embracing change and new technologies to drive our business forward,” it sounds like they’d be leaning on you to introduce new and innovative technologies to improve the way they do business.
That’s about all I can get out of that job ad without knowing the business or their technical requirements.
