About the job
Job summary

The Home Office works to build a safe, fair and prosperous UK. We achieve this through our work on counter-terrorism, policing, fire, crime, drugs policy, immigration and passports.

The Science, Technology, Research and Analysis (STAR) Group sits at the heart of the Home Office. The group ensures the best evidence and analysis are used to address the strategic issues facing the department. We also provide the science, technology, data, and international insights and collaboration capabilities to drive delivery.

As an Associate Technology Delivery Manager, you will join a team and support the delivery of technology products and services – particularly in Microsoft Power Business Intelligence and related services. You will help to set up your team for success and engage with stakeholders and suppliers, helping to build successful relationships across and beyond the organisation. You will help the team to remove blockers and inefficiencies, and continually seek new ways of working, leading to better outcomes.

• Help build clear processes and rules for how new requests are handled and approved.

• Develop and share insights and dashboards with senior stakeholders and give practical advice and recommendations to support decision making.
• Help people to work together effectively as a team and support collaboration towards the team's goals. Raise issues that impact the health of the team and suggest improvements.
• Work and communicate with Learning & Development, (L&D) Change & Engagement, and Contract Management colleagues to design and deliver training, communications and engagement plans, build strong stakeholder relationships, and track supplier performance (supporting the commercial lead).
• Support creation and running of PBI "community of practice" and contribute to the Home Office Delivery community.

Working pattern

This role is available on a full-time basis with the option of compressed hours working. This role is also suitable for part-time working hours, with a minimum requirement to work 4 days/30 hours per week due to business requirements.
