Join DWP Digital's vibrant delivery community and be part of one of Europe's largest digital transformations.

We're using fresh ideas and leading-edge tech to build and maintain digital solutions that will be used by nearly every person in the UK, every day and at key moments in their lives. 

DWP is the UK's largest government department. We help people into work, and make payments worth over £195bn a year to support and empower millions of people.

The scale of what we do is extraordinary, and our purpose is unique. We'd love you to join us.

You are your role

We're looking for passionate Senior Digital Project Managers to lead across multiple impactful digital projects. You'll work with cross-functional teams to deliver change, maintain core systems, and develop new services that support millions of people.

You'll ensure robust project controls are in place, manage risks and dependencies, and maintain clear governance and reporting. You'll communicate effectively with Digital Directors and navigate complex issues that may require board-level decisions.

Working across a diverse stakeholder landscape, you'll set the pace for delivery and collaborate with internal teams and external suppliers to achieve results. You'll also foster a high-performing team culture, coaching others to improve flow, quality, and ownership, while constructively addressing conflict.

Beyond delivery, you'll champion continuous learning in project management, digital frameworks, and emerging technologies-mentoring others and helping shape standards across the wider delivery community.

What skills, knowledge and experience will you need? How will this be assessed?

Our application process requires both a technical and personal statement. This is your opportunity to evidence clear examples of how you meet the following:

  • History of taking full responsibility for the definition, documentation and successful completion of large-scale complex projects, preferably transformation, utilising both internal and external suppliers.
  • Experience of establishing new teams and agile processes, in relation to project deliverables and business as usual tasks.
  • Experience of managing complex external dependencies that have required significant planning and prioritising in order to ensure pace and quality of delivery is maintained.
  • Communicate with others in a clear, honest and enthusiastic way in order to build trust. You can explain complex technical issues in a way that is easy to understand and influence Senior level decision making.
  • Identify and pursue appropriate development opportunities for both yourself and your team to enhance delivery outcomes.
  • You can demonstrate your experience as a Project Manager who takes full responsibility for the definition, documentation and successful completion of a number of large-scale complex projects, preferably transformation, utilising both internal and external suppliers.

Details. Wages. Perks.

Location: You'll join us in one of our brilliant digital hubs in Blackpool, Leeds, Manchester, Newcastle or Sheffield, whichever is most convenient for you.

Holidays: A generous leave package starting at 26 days rising to 31 days over time.
