  • Strong stakeholder management and communication skills, with the ability to engage credibly with both senior business leaders and technical teams.

Some other highly valued skills may include:

  • Good understanding of cloud technologies and data principles across AWS, Azure or GCP, or experience supporting large-scale cloud or data migration programmes.
  • Strong project governance experience, including prioritising multiple workstreams, tracking delivery progress, managing risks and supporting senior governance forums.
  • Experience working in Agile delivery environments, including backlog prioritisation, roadmap planning, dependency management or cross-team delivery alignment.
  • Product Owner experience, particularly with cloud platforms, data tools, infrastructure products or technology enablement capabilities.

You may be assessed on the key critical skills relevant for success in role, such as business acumen, strategic thinking, digital and technology, change and transformation, and stakeholder management, as well as job-specific technical skills.
