Digital Infrastructure Stakeholder Lead

2 weeks ago


Glasgow, United Kingdom Scottish Government Full time

Overview:
The Scottish Government wants Scotland to be a fully digitally inclusive nation in which our digital and data infrastructure is recognised as critical national infrastructure and the benefits of technology are available to everyone.

Scotland’s Infrastructure Investment Plan adopts a wide, encompassing definition of infrastructure. It extends beyond the fibre, masts and small cells needed to meet our connectivity needs, to encompass digital platforms, online public services and data architecture. Future capital investment decisions will be driven by this understanding of the role that data and digital play in ensuring the economic and societal resilience of all our communities and our ability to trade with the world. They will also support our transition to a net zero society by enabling us to replace unnecessary journeys and make more efficient, environmentally friendly use of the more traditional infrastructure of transport and buildings.

Over £1 billion of public funding has already been invested to transform Scotland’s digital connectivity via our Digital Scotland Superfast Broadband Programme and our ongoing Scottish 4G Infill and Reaching 100% (R100) programmes.

The complexity and scale of national digital infrastructure programmes means that delivery is critically dependent on the effective management of stakeholders impacted by or with an interest in those programmes.

Main Duties Of This Role

Reporting to the Head of Delivery, the Digital Infrastructure Stakeholder Lead is responsible for ensuring that all stakeholders are kept fully informed and understand both the Strategy and the various delivery programmes tasked with achieving the Strategy’s aims. The role will act as an intelligent conduit between the programme and stakeholders at all levels - such that information flows in both directions to the right people in the right format and, equally importantly, the priorities of these stakeholders are understood and catered for.

**LOCATION**

Hybrid working is the current arrangement for this post. The post will be offered on a location flexible basis but occasional travel to Glasgow and Edinburgh will be required.
