[What you will be working on]

You will be responsible for:

• Planning and managing the ICT product portfolio, including strategies, roadmaps, governance frameworks and priorities aligned to business and ICT objectives.
• Driving end-to-end product management, from discovery and requirements gathering through to implementation, adoption and continuous enhancement, working closely with solution architects, software engineers and vendors.

• Good appreciation of technology concepts such as system architecture, cloud, data standards, data governance and systems integration, sufficient to engage meaningfully with technical teams and vendors without needing to be the technical authority.
• Familiarity with knowledge management practices and experience supporting data or ICT governance processes, including policy and standards development.
• Strong stakeholder engagement, communication and presentation skills, with the ability to translate between business needs and technical solutions.
• Experience in Agile delivery, the Built Environment sector, or ICT portfolio and programme management will be an advantage.
