About the Enabling Functions (EF) Programme Team

 

Enabling Functions are responsible for bringing out the best in our colleagues by giving them the support they need to perform at the highest level.  By helping our core business across diverse parts of the organisation such as Global Operations, Finance, HR, Property, Legal and Procurement make the most of the latest technological innovations, we have real far-reaching impact across Tesco.  

 

We provide services on a large scale; as the second largest employer in the UK, our teams are responsible for deploying and managing Payroll systems which support over 300,000 people.  Our finance systems execute billions of pounds worth of payment transactions each year and in the future, we expect the size of our services to continue to grow.

 

We are about to start the next chapter for Tesco with ambitious plans to transform the technology landscape.  We are embarking on an ambitious plan to streamline our Treasury management by restructuring our banking operations and simplifying the associated activities and processes. We will do this through combining inhouse development with the best of breed 3rd party applications. This is a major programme which will have a significant impact on our bottom line.
