    Kingston and Sutton councils have a number of shared services serving both authorities, with some teams and roles more focussed on one council than the other, but the majority are shared across both, meaning you get multiple opportunities to learn from a wider pool of activities and two different political bodies.

    We work flexibly in both Kingston and Sutton offices, and support working at home or flexible working patterns that enable you to tailor your working and personal life.

    Over in Kingston, we are undertaking the largest housing regeneration programme ever delivered in the borough, building new energy efficient housing that will transform some of our oldest Council owned housing.

    Both boroughs have publicly committed to doing what they can to tackle the climate emergency and are investing in new technologies and societal change that will help bring carbon emissions down and improve our climate impact.

    Sutton is a well connected attractive part of London that has a reputation for excellent schools, green and leafy open spaces, and a history that drives a thriving heritage and culture offer through our museums and libraries.

    The Council plays a leading role in a number of local partnerships and places great emphasis on engaging effectively with its residents, listening to local voices and making their message heard across London Government.

    The Head of IT is responsible for the design, delivery, operation and support of our IT services, Infrastructure and systems across the shared Digital & IT Service.

    Ensure that the IT department provides high-quality, efficient, and effective services to the Councils and their residents.
    Lead and manage the IT teams.
    Develop and implement the IT strategy.
    Cyber security and governance.
    Manage the IT budget.

    This is a varied and exciting role, you will be leading on a transformation programme which involves migrating to cloud computing, transforming the network, wifi and the telephony.

    The Head of IT has 4-5 direct reports; Head of Digital Support (IT Help Desk and Support Services), Head of Business Applications, Head of Cloud and Platform and Programme Manager for the Infrastructure Programme.

    The wider Digital & IT team consists of 40-50 staff members.
