About Thomas Volmer

Business-first IT leader with 20+ years of driving enterprise transformation across construction, energy, and hospitality.As Director of IT and PMO at a global construction company, I lead large-scale digital initiatives that align technology with bottom-line results. I’ve built my career not on degrees, but on outcomes — transforming legacy environments, enabling strategic growth, and delivering high-performance teams that get results.Previously served as Interim CIO, where I oversaw enterprise IT strategy and modernization during a critical inflection point. That experience shaped my passion for turning IT into a true business enabler — not just a support function.I’m known for: • Turning complex programs into measurable business value • Aligning IT with executive strategy • Building trusted partnerships across operations, finance, and business units • Leading high-stakes, high-visibility transformation without the bureaucracyNow, I’m ready to bring this blend of execution and vision to a permanent CIO role — especially in mid-market or growth-focused companies looking to modernize and scale. I’m particularly interested in organizations in energy, manufacturing, healthcare, and professional services.Let’s connect if you’re looking for a grounded, outcome-driven leader who knows how to build — and rebuild — the future of IT.
