**Job summary**:
**Service Modernisation: Programme Management Office**

Enabling DWP to become a department that is more user focused, customer centric and efficient will take a multi-year journey. We plan to achieve this for the department through our Service Modernisation programme. This programme will be at the heart of DWP’s transformation journey for the coming years, modernising eleven different customer services and product lines that involve 14,000 staff and 21 million customers.

Service Modernisation is a DWP ministerial priority and is a Cabinet Office GMPP IPA A class programme under the “Active” assurance regime, thereby requiring the highest level of scrutiny for IPA given its national importance. The current scope of the Service Modernisation Programme is Retirement Services, Working Age and Health Services, Child Maintenance Services, Disputes Services and Cross Cutting Activities.

To make this modernisation a reality the Service Modernisation programme is a multi-year programme delivering significant transformation within service lines, across our workforce and will deliver the DWP service centre of the future. Therefore, Service Modernisation is fully integrated into the DWP business strategy and vision for 2030. There are also close dependencies with Workplace Transformation within the department.

**Fraud, Error and Debt Programme Office: Head of Programme Management Office.**

The Debt and the Fraud & Error Programmes both support the Department’s strategy to reduce fraud, error and debt by transforming our services to deliver more efficiently and effectively using modern digital systems.

The Debt and the Fraud & Error Programmes are split across the following categories:

- Prevent: Preventing fraud and error, before it gets into DWP systems
- Detect: How fraud and error will be detected if it enters DWP systems, either through new claims or changes
- Correct: Work to correct any fraud and error in DWP systems
- Collect: Enhancing DWP’s capability to recover debt, the view of a claimant’s overall debt and making it easier for customers to understand and repay their debt.

The Debt Programme is delivering a transformed Debt service for the department which includes an enhanced Self Service capability for customers and a new Debt Management and Compensation Recovery system for our people.

The Debt and the Fraud & Error Programmes work collaboratively with Counter Fraud, Compliance and Debt, Digital and many other parts of the business to deliver change together in a supportive, cross-working environment.

**Job description**:

- Lead on the shaping of the organisational and programme strategy; leading and investing in people; and creating a high performing culture to deliver benefits to customers, the department and wider government
