Person specification

Whilst our day job is to deliver first class customer service to our users and stakeholders on the National Remediation System , you will be used to “spinning several plates” at once and will always be looking for ways to improve and innovate.

You’ll be comfortable supporting the product delivery and wider CSS team with complex process issues, aiming to identify opportunities to both improve understanding of how our systems work and to enhance them.

As an experienced product/digital delivery professional you’ll understand how to manage colleagues and be able to demonstrate you can work with others as part of a team in a collaborative, inclusive way.
