You’ll play a pivotal role in leading cross-functional teams to deliver cutting-edge digital solutions. You’ll be the driving force behind Agile best practices, removing blockers, fostering a culture of continuous improvement, and ensuring smooth, efficient delivery.
We have a number of exciting opportunities across multiple teams, each playing a crucial role in shaping the future of digital services at DWP:

Strong SDLC knowledge and experience with Azure DevOps or Jira is desirable, along with an analytical mindset and customer-focused approach.
We are seeking to transform the way some of our most vulnerable users get the support they need. Working alongside policy, strategy, service delivery and cross-government digital areas we are designing the health and disability services of the future looking to how we can make improvements and release value early and regularly while we aim towards a future vision of joined up services which meet user needs and align with departmental strategy.
We are looking for an enthusiastic Agile Delivery Manager who will be comfortable working alongside the Product Manager and with technical and data professionals, covering a wide breadth of activity which focuses on creating services focused on improving citizen experience.
You’ll join a thriving community of practice, where you'll share best practice, insight and support with a bunch of other talented, expert Agile Delivery Managers.
