**Role Purpose**

These roles provide comprehensive support to various head of functions and their C1 and SEO managers. There are a number of roles available, and these will be in one of the following areas:
**_Finance_**
The RoS finance team covers a range of core finance functions including transactions, credit control, systems, finance business partnering, financial modelling and financial accounting. We provide technical and strategic financial advice and guidance to all business areas and governance groups. We are responsible for delivering the annual accounts, audit assurance and providing regular corporate reporting to support decision making. Our team has a strong focus on cross training across the team to improve resilience and we support each other through regular team check-ins and meetings both face to face and virtually.

**_Product & Business Analysis_**
The Product & Business Analysis community at RoS works across our organisation to deliver outcomes in support of the RoS strategic objectives. This means you’ll find colleagues delivering change in HR and Finance teams as well as areas specific to an organisation responsible for national datasets relating to land and property information, such as our Mapping and Land Registration teams. Our community has a shared emphasis on learning via our communities of practice; growing our networks via industry events and conferences; and space to celebrate our successes and try new ideas.

The Delivery Directorate within RoS is made up of our Programme Office, Agile Coaches and Geovation/Innovation. Colleagues across the directorate work with Internal and External stakeholders to ensure successful delivery of projects and digital delivery, support the creation of high performing teams, champion continuous improvement and support innovation in prop/geo tech through our Geovation accelerators. The teams are focused on delivering the strategic outcomes through solving the right problems and delivering value internally and externally.

Our function engage with a variety of internal and external stakeholders and manage high-level correspondence from MSPS, Parliament, and other key contacts.
