Digital Services Support Manager

<ul></ul>





Strategy and Communications 
Strategy and Communications sits at the centre of the organisation, bringing together several teams with organisation-wide remits and mutual collaboration opportunities.
The work of the directorate’s teams includes delivery of major events, designing and leading public affairs or marketing campaigns, providing data, evidence and analysis, leading cross-organisational programmes, to making sure we plan for and can respond to emerging events or emergencies in our city. We particularly encourage applications from individuals from groups currently underrepresented in our workforce.&nbsp;
<h2>About the team</h2>
London Resilience Unit supports the work of London's key agencies in assessing risks, working to reduce the likelihood or impact of those risks and, where risk can't be eliminated, preparing arrangements to respond, recover and learn from emergencies.
<h2>About the role</h2>
This is a key management and leadership role at the centre of innovation in how London prepares for emergencies. It will suit someone who takes pride in delivering complex, high-impact projects in a multi-agency environment.
The Trailblazer Programme is a one-year, externally funded initiative (with potential for extension to be agreed) focused on embedding improvements in leadership, accountability and integration across London’s resilience system. The programme will support the delivery of our 2025 London resilience strategy and bring together learning from the Covid-19 and Grenfell Tower inquiry recommendations to improve London’s resilience.
As Resilience Manager (Trailblazers) you will lead the coordination of this project, &nbsp;overseeing planning, management, governance reporting and risk management. You will be responsible for ensuring projects within the programme align with and deliver against our strategic and funding requirements, and that the programme delivers measurable value for both funders and Londoners.
You will lead relevant officers within London Resilience Unit, GLA and external stakeholders (including emergency services, local and national government, community sector organisations and others). You will report to the Head of Governance, Assurance and Partnerships team, but be required to work right across London Resilience Unit.
We're looking for someone who can bring clarity and structure to complex delivery and who is confident in managing internal and external relationships, navigating governance structures and driving progress. Experience of supporting multi-agency working is essential, and experience of working in resilience or a related sector would be advantageous though not essential.
<h2>What your day will look like</h2>
Project Management and Delivery

<ul>
<li>Act as the focal point for the delivery of all Trailblazer activity, ensuring coherence of delivery strands and alignment with wider resilience activity.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Maintain oversight of project scheduling and controls to ensure delivery against milestones, management of interdependencies and budget controls.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Use tools such as earned value analysis, risk registers and benefits realisation to support project performance and evaluation.</li>
</ul>

Stakeholder Management and Engagement

<ul>
<li>Coordinate engagement with internal and external stakeholders, facilitating collaborative working and resolving problems.</li>
<li>Manage directly, or liaise with contract managers, to oversee the management of contracted services to ensure project timescale and budget criteria are met.</li>
</ul>

Reporting, Evaluation and Learning&nbsp; 
<ul>
<li>Prepare and deliver clear, concise reports on project performance to senior management and stakeholders to influence decision making.</li>
<li>Monitor and report on project benefits to support evaluation and sustainability of project. Contribute to wider learning and improvement work across London Resilience Unit.</li>
</ul>

The nature of London Resilience Unit’s work is that incidents can occur which require rapid alteration of planned priorities. This role is&nbsp;not expected&nbsp;to participate in the on-call arrangements but from time to time may be expected to provide support appropriate to grade and skills to the rest of the team, should that be required or as delegated by the line manager.
<h2>Skills, knowledge and experience</h2>
You will thrive in this role if you:

<ol>
<li>Have experience in developing a programmatic approach in challenging circumstances ideally in a public sector or multi-agency context.</li>
</ol>

<ol>
<li>Have experience in identifying, analysing and mitigating risks to work programmes and using both waterfall and agile project methodologies.</li>
</ol>

<ol>
