Do you have ideas on how to change and improve data governance processes? Would you love the opportunity to help shape the future of data within DWP?

A role in our Chief Data Office (CDO) may well be the opportunity you’re looking for.

DWP uses data every day in multiple different ways to enable us to operate as an organisation. Data helps us make better policy choices, as well as day to day decisions about how we run our services and achieve outcomes for our customers.

DWP Digital Group is dedicated to developing and delivering world-class digital services that benefits society today and improves the lives of future generations.

We are seeking experienced Data Governance Managers to provide expertise and help us drive the evolution of data within DWP. This is an exciting time to join - DWP's five-year Data Strategy was introduced in 2023, and you will be at the heart of its implementation, alongside the introduction of a Data Hub and Spoke model.

The CDO together with Data and Analytics within DWP Digital are part of the new hub for Data in the DWP.

You will have an opportunity to develop transferrable data skills that are valuable to both DWP and wider industry through on-the-job training, soft skills learning, and professional qualifications.

If you’re an experienced Data Governance Manager looking to work on a variety of data governance priorities and enjoy collaborating with stakeholders, we’d love to hear from you.

It is recognised across DWP that data is an enabler in all that we do to deliver improved outcomes for citizens – our Data Governance Managers are critical to support this.

As a Data Governance Manager working within Chief Data Office these are some of the things you will have the opportunity to be doing:

  • Support the implementation of the Data Strategy across DWP.
  • Assist with the design and application of DWP’s Data Governance Framework.
  • Writing and updating Data Governance policies and supporting Data Governance Boards.
  • Assist the roll out of DWP’s Data Ownership and Stewardship model.
  • Implementation of Data Quality Framework and provide targeted support.
  • Support the department in meeting its Data Protection legislative compliance.
  • Understanding and tracking the data maturity across the department.
  • Support to Data Ethics and data governance for AI.
  • Working across government to implement Government Digital Service (GDS) data initiatives.
  • Collaboration across different projects managing multiple competing priorities with a degree of flexibility.
  • Engaging with colleagues across DWP and across government to support Data Sharing.

You will have the opportunity to shape and deliver innovative solutions to meet DWP’s data needs, contributing to key Chief Data Office (CDO) priorities including our live services such as the Data Sharing Advice and Guidance Team and the Data Quality Centre of Excellence.

As part of the Data Governance Job Family, reporting to a Senior Data Governance Manager, you will work across a range of data governance projects with the flexibility to rotate and explore different areas over time.

You can choose to specialise in areas such as Data Quality or Data Sharing Governance or take a broader approach as a Data Governance Generalist. Whichever path you take, you will be supported through formal and informal training, with opportunities to gain professional qualifications like GDPR Practitioner or Certified Data Management Professional (CDMP), helping you grow your career.

While not essential, familiarity with the following would be helpful when starting the role:

  • Understanding of different Data Maturity Models and best practice.
