Department: Consultancy

Employment Type: Full Time

Location: London

Description

As a Technical Consultant at Actica, you will have the opportunity to provide support to a wide range of high-profile UK public sector and defence organisations. Your help will enable them to get the maximum benefit from their technology investments, and in doing so play a key role in nationally critical projects which make a real difference to people’s everyday lives.

With expertise in the architectures, technologies and operational processes required; you will be supported by others, and may also find yourself providing, high-value strategy, business analysis and procurement consultancy to ensure any solution aligns with business objectives.

You will also provide authoritative advice on likely future technology developments and routes to exploit these.

Our position as a client-side advisor means that your role will involve significant stakeholder engagement, dealing directly with the client, including in resolving day-day issues involved in assignment delivery and developing follow-on opportunities, so excellent interpersonal and influencing skills are essential.

Responsibilities

Working either individually or as part of a larger Actica team, you will undertake a number of consultancy assignments that could include:

· Developing strategies for future delivery of ICT services to meet the client’s business needs and in accordance with the Government’s ICT and other strategies;

· Defining end-to-end architectures including Business, Applications, Data and Infrastructure;

· Production of User and Service Requirements Documentation;

· Delivery of key Concept and Assessment Phase products;

· Supporting large ICT procurements, including developing procurement documentation, and evaluation strategies and evaluating bids;

· Providing technical assurance that proposed solutions are fit for purpose.

Over time you may be given the opportunity to specialise and take on more responsibility in areas such as: Cyber Security, Enterprise Architecture, Technical Architecture, Service Management, and Business Change.

Qualifications and Experience

We work predominantly within the UK Defence and Public Sectors, because of this experience within those sectors is desirable, preferably within the ICT context on enterprise solutions. The fast-moving nature of the ICT environment, together with the need to resource multiple, ad-hoc assignments, also requires our consultants to be quick thinkers, proactive and self-motivated – with the ability to apply a structured approach to often unfamiliar subject matter.

The following attributes and areas of experience will make you particularly suited to this role with Actica:

  • Enterprise and Technical Architecture development and review using EA frameworks and methods e.g. TOGAF, MODAF;
  • Business or systems analysis methods and tools, e.g. BPMN, UML;
  • Software development methods and techniques e.g. Agile methods such as SCRUM;
  • Information security policy standards e.g. ISO27001 / ISO27002, Cyber Essentials;
  • Programme and Project Management methods e.g. MSP, PRINCE2, DSDM, Scaled Agile Framework;
  • Public sector best practice guidance, e.g. ITIL, OGC toolkit;

Standard methodologies for:

  • Systems integration and testing;
  • Requirements capture and analysis;
  • Feasibility studies and business case development;
  • Information systems security;
  • Cost modelling and investment appraisal;
  • Procurement and Contracting Strategies.

The nature of Actica’s business means that a wide and varied background is preferable and the capability to adapt quickly to change is always required.

Career Development

You will be given the opportunity to further your career in consulting, specialising in the application of a broad range of methodologies and technical specialisations to a wide range of business problems.

You will typically work on client sites, co-located with other project members, including client staff, Actica colleagues and other suppliers. Due to the nature of client side working, regular travel within the UK should be expected. The base office is in Guildford, but it is likely that you will spend the majority of your time working with clients at their sites.

Actica aims to nurture a diverse workforce through inclusive working practices, promoting equality in our recruitment activities, and by employing candidates on the basis of merit. Discrimination against individuals on the grounds of protected characteristics is not permitted and we take steps to ensure that our staff are made aware of their legal responsibilities when making hiring decisions.
