**Job summary**:
In this role you will have the space and scope to excel in coordinating governance, reporting and communication activities for the Head of Technology Services, and to cultivate and nurture meaningful connections with team members across Technology Services. The role sits in the Delivery and Service Management Team but supports the management team across the whole of DVSA’s Technology Services Team.

In the team you can take ownership of your work, while importantly being empowered to deliver. There are several functions that make up the team: Delivery Management, Service Delivery Management, Transition and Change, Process Improvement, and Business Relationship Management. The team currently consists of twenty members and is steadily expanding, yet it successfully preserves a close-knit team culture. Together, we emphasise a broader outlook to provide mutual team support rather than becoming siloed on “what’s mine”. You will find yourself in an open and welcoming team.

There’s never been a better time to join the DVSA.
