This role is part of the Digital & Data Hub—a centre of expertise designed to improve how we recruit and develop digital talent, embed better governance, and support business areas with expert advice and insight. Whether it’s setting clear routes through governance forums, improving how we assess digital risk, or supporting portfolio delivery teams, you’ll play a key role in making sure DVSA delivers smarter, more joined-up digital services.
You’ll work closely with colleagues across Driver, Vehicle, Enforcement, and Common Services, helping teams navigate complexity, stay aligned to strategy, and make decisions with the right information at the right time. We’re building a high-performing, inclusive digital culture—and this is your chance to help shape how it operates.
If you’re motivated by improving delivery standards and want to help others succeed through clear, practical governance—you’ll feel right at home here.
The Head of Digital Governance will lead a small team responsible for maintaining oversight of DVSA’s digital portfolio. You’ll ensure that digital activity is delivered responsibly, aligned with organisational goals, and supported by sound decision-making and assurance.
Based in one of our administrative offices (Bristol, Newcastle, Swansea, Nottingham, Oldham, Birmingham, or Leeds), this role requires a blend of strategic thinking, relationship management, and professional credibility in governance and assurance.
Key Responsibilities
- Leadership: Guide and support a small team of governance and assurance professionals, creating a culture of integrity, collaboration, and constructive challenge.
- Governance Oversight: Own the digital governance framework and ensure it reflects best practice, government standards, and the evolving needs of DVSA’s digital teams.
- Assurance & Risk: Be the go-to expert for digital assurance—ensuring our projects are accountable, well-documented, and set up for success from the outset.
- Project & Programme Practice: Maintain and evolve our programme and project delivery standards, ensuring they’re usable, proportionate, and aligned with recognised methodologies like MSP and PRINCE2.
- Senior Engagement: Work alongside directors, service owners, and external partners to maintain trust and alignment across DVSA and the wider Department for Transport family.
