Job description:

If you are looking for a challenge, then this is the role for you, and we'd love to hear from you.

The role sits within the Delivery Support Team (DST) which works on a range of cross-cutting projects and activities spanning DIO's main Delivery business areas, including Major Projects and Programmes and the Regional Delivery area which leads facilities management for large parts of the Defence Estate.

The Digital Projects workstream is part of the Continuous Improvements team within the DST.

The role supports the provision of a single coherent view of performance across the business to inform effective decision making, drive value for money for Defence and maximise resources available.

This workstream provides support to Technology, Data and Information Projects that impact on delivery, helping the business areas to gather and understand their requirements, collaborating across departments and with customers to achieve the required outcomes.

This role will support the delivery of high-profile Digital Projects that support change and improvements to the way DIO operates and the data we hold on to the Defence Estate.

You will be key in supporting the project leads in ensuring that the technical solutions enable the business needs, that there is a consistent approach and understanding across delivery and wider DIO and to support evidence capture required to make strategic decisions.

This role will also be involved in upcoming projects that require support to deliver across Customer delivery, challenging assumptions to ensure as a business we capture lessons learnt and enact that learning to in order to continually improve.

This is an exciting time for our team and the organisation and if you would like to be in the thick of it, helping drive forward and implement changes to ways of working then this is the time to apply.
