Strategic Capability Lead (Government Digital & Data) - Product, Delivery, Architecture & IT Ops at UK Home Office
As a Senior Technology Delivery Manager, you will be accountable for the delivery of outcomes through the technology products and services delivered by multiple teams. You will set up your teams for success and represent the delivery of outcomes to stakeholders and suppliers, building successful relationships across and beyond the organisation. You will ensure that decisions across teams are made efficiently and effectively by helping teams to engage appropriately with governance.
As a senior member of the Home Office Technology Delivery community, you’ll share knowledge and experience with colleagues across the department and wider Government, building skills and applying good practice and standards. You will support the UK’s security and prosperity through the products and services that you help to deliver.
The Migration and Borders Technology Portfolio (MBTP) are an award-winning delivery partner in the Digital, Data and Technology (DDaT) directorate. We drive digital ambitions, design appropriate solutions and deliver digital services quickly and effectively. Our work makes a real difference in helping the Home Office achieve its ambitions to keep citizens safe and the country secure.
Within MBTP, the Central Operations Platform (COP) has played a vital role in supporting the UK’s immigration and border security operations. COP delivers a range of products used at the Border for data collection and transmission that underpin immigration and border checks.
The platform is currently in an exciting period of transition and some of the products are migrating to other systems. Working in this area will be subject to change and transitions but the need for resilience and strong performance remains unchanged.
