**Job summary**:
Are you passionate about shaping a team in a role that offers a wide reach across every area in DfT and the opportunity to influence and steer the most senior leaders in DfT?

If so, then this exciting opportunity as one of two leads on our corporate Risk and Performance Reporting Insights Team is for you, and we’d love to hear from you.

**Job description**:
This role offers you the opportunity to work at the centre of the Department for Transport (DfT) and with the wider family of transport public bodies as well as other government departments (OGDs). You will develop an in-depth understanding of the workings across the Department. This role requires strong leadership skills and communication skills to influence senior decision-making (including boards) and teams across DfT. Your role is key to maintaining governance standards and accountability across the DfT family. You’ll be asked to advise and take advice from the very top of the Department and you’ll be required to take challenge, and challenge back when needed.

The role will lead on our approach to business planning and performance reporting, and you will need to work with teams to build on a culture of strong partnership working between DfT and with its public bodies and with OGDs. As well as supporting these teams, where necessary, you will help define relationships and roles internally to deliver a great service.

**Responsibilities include, but are not limited to**:

- Develop a new performance framework that looks to bring together the performance of the Department, its public bodies, and the transport network across all modes.
- Develop a new internal business planning framework that supports that of the Department’s Outcome Delivery Plan (ODP).
- Create and develop cross DfT systems for delivery of the ODP - the government wide business planning standard.
- Devise and implement your ideas to continuously improve our services to ministers, DfT Board, Executive Committee (ExCo), and the Group Audit, Risk and Assurance Committee, and business areas.
- Analysis and identification of trends across our data to ensure ExCo (and other senior stakeholders) have the right information to help them manage the Department effectively.
- Present to ExCo and GARAC when required.
- Lead on key DfT Corporate reporting including on the ODP to HMT and Cabinet Office, Annual Report of Accounts to Parliament, performance reports to ExCo and the DfT Board, as well as regular performance reporting when needed e.g., to ministers.
- Responsibility for the development of a professional team in line with their own aspirations and business need - currently consisting of 2 SEOs - this may increase in number as the team develops.
- Managing a range of internal and external stakeholders including Cabinet Office and HMT performance teams, and the NAO.
- Have an understanding of the Department’s risk management framework and processes.
- Work in unison with the Department’s Risk Lead and be able to cover their role during periods of absence.

For more information, please see the attached Role Profile.

**Person specification**:
**About you**

To thrive in this role, you will have experience using analytical data from various sources to inform decisions and confidently able to present this to a wide range of stakeholders.

You will have experience using Power BI to collect data and produce insightful reports.

**Additional information**

A minimum 60% of your working time should be spent at your principal workplace, although requirements to attend other locations for official business, or carry out detached duty in another DfT workplace, will also count towards this level of attendance.

This role requires travel to the London office one to two times a month.

- Delivering at Pace
- Making Effective Decisions
- Managing a Quality Service
- Seeing the Big Picture
