Business Transformation Officer
2 opportunities available!
- Business Transformation Officer (Maternity Cover, up to 12 months)
- Business Transformation Officer (Permanent)
- Are you experienced in working on projects in a complex public service environment?
- Are you an experienced Business Transformation officer/consultant with a track record of delivering projects, looking to join a small team dedicated to delivering an ambitious Transformation and Collaboration Programme?
- Are you a self-starter with excellent relationship skills, passionate about developing solutions to challenging and complex challenges faced by Local Government? Do you want to help the Council ensure that we deliver ambitious and sustainable outcomes that will improve the lives of our residents and our staff?
As a proactive current or aspiring Business Transformation Officer you will be experienced in working on small and large projects across a range of Local Government or public service challenges.
You will be experienced in programme and project methodologies; and be able to balance the need to apply methods consistently in line with governance requirements but also be flexible to the context in which we are operating.
You will use your experience, curiosity, commitment to service improvement and willingness to challenge the status quo to support the development and implementation of Transformation and Collaboration projects. You will be focused on ensuring that these deliver our Corporate Strategy priorities, programme objectives, sustainable change over the long term; and underpin our Collaboration Partnership principles.
You will be a confident, self-starter who also recognises the importance of relationship building with team members and staff across the council to ensure we collectively deliver our objectives. You will be team focused and you will also be confident in dealing with ambiguity and a high demand environment.
You will also liaise with counterparts in GBC.
This is the perfect opportunity to join the Business Transformation team as we have recently refocused our ambitious Transformation and Collaboration Programme. This is a high profile, multi-year endeavour and we are confident you will considerably develop your skills and exposure to a broad range of Local Government services.
You will be encouraged to keep up to date with all matters relating to programme and project management you will have the opportunity to undertake continuing professional development.
These posts are both full-time roles; however, all applications will be considered.
This role falls under our hybrid working policy. You will be required to attend the Godalming based office to support the work of the Business Transformation team as needed.
For an informal discussion about the post, please contact Karen Grave, Interim Business Transformation Manager, karen.grave@waverley.gov.uk.
