How you'll help us make health happen
People
Assist technology directors develop their staffing strategy (including operating model transformations, adoption of a new professions model, upskilling plans / L&D activities, designing and embedding new ways of working) as well as ongoing colleague engagement and culture. Focus will be on building a sustainable forecast process allowing for financial management of this complex change agenda.
Cost Management
Drive robust cost management across the pillars, providing leadership with visibility of the total costs incurred to run the pillars and where those costs are accounted for, leveraging existing cost management processes and championing amendments to BAU cost management processes to provide greater transparency, accountability and financial acumen.
Data
Provide/utilise data and systems analysis to define metrics to monitor and report the efficacy and efficiency of the workforce, platforms and products. Develop analytical models to generate actionable insights, identify trends and support strategic planning. Champion the use of data to validate hypotheses and guide the evolution of the product‑centric operating model.
Commercial Management
Support the commercial leadership of the function with a focus on cost to serve, financial planning and management, vendor cost management and building effective and transparent cost allocation methodologies for shared platforms and internal/functions' products as we shift to a reuse model and FinOps. Support business case development and management (including benefits), in partnership with the finance teams. Help the development of meaningful reporting to optimise the cost base through rationalisation, Fin Ops and effective software asset management and vendor/contract oversight.
Operational and digital experience insights

This includes supporting townhalls, reporting to Business Performance Committees as well as input to broader technology and transformation communications updates.
