About the UK Hydrographic Office (UKHO)
UKHO is an executive agency, sponsored by the Ministry of Defence. We work with a wide range of data suppliers and partners, surveying and charting the world's oceans in order to develop and serve world leading software and data solutions to commercial shipping companies, navies and maritime organisations.
The role
This role sits within the Operations Production Engineering and Data Governance Group. The Group supports production teams delivering Change Management and also delivers Internal Training, Quality Assessment, Defence Standards and Data Governance across the UKHO.
The primary objective of the role is to ensure change activities are delivered effectively into the business. This includes large scale change, which could be managed in the form of a project or workstream, as well as smaller scale change such as supporting continuous improvement activity within a singular team.
Alongside change activity, the role is required to develop and maintain tools which can generate management information and business intelligence to support decision making and performance monitoring.
The ideal candidate will be a skilled and engaging communicator, with a track record of effective collaboration with customers and stakeholders to deliver high quality outcomes in relation to change, standards and governance. Experience of leading significant business change, using recognised methodologies such as Lean Six Sigma and Agile, is equally important.
