**Job summary**:
The Department for Business & Trade has overall responsibility for supporting British businesses to invest, grow and export, creating jobs and prosperity across the UK.

The Future Enterprise Resource Planning and Shared Services Provider (FESSP) programme looks to unlock the future potential of Finance and HR service provisions. The programme sets out to upgrade and replace DIT’s current HR, finance, and payroll domestic system in two stages. In the medium-term it will upgrade to a newer on-premise system; and over the long-term it will replace the on-premise system with cloud technology. In addition, FESSP will transform and/or replace our supplier of transactional, back-office activities (shared services currently provided by UKSBS). This will simplify, streamline, and improve the services HR and Finance provide that enable staff to do their jobs.

- Standardised processes and data - support interoperability, making it easier to understand and compare corporate data.

We are looking for a Head of Transformation with responsibility for working with the Matrix Programme, and key corporate service stakeholders to manage the transition to the new ways of working. This role will focus its efforts on the effects of changing technologies, structures, and processes, and ensure that change management activities are delivered effectively to enable agreed benefits to be appropriately realised. The role is critical to achieving the strategic outcomes of the programme and will form part of the programme leadership team.

**Job description**:

- ** Communications and stakeholder management**:Leading internal and external relationships as appropriate and tracking these using stakeholder mapping and associated techniques.

- ** Guidance and line management**: Provide guidance and line management expertise to a team of engagement and change experts.
- ** Benefits realisation**: Provide assurance on realisation of benefits for the programme through planning, designing and ensuring that project outputs align with the programme outcomes.
