Contract: Permanent, Full-Time

Location: Knowsley, Prescot L34 9ET during refurbishment of head office, then Lower House Lane, Liverpool, L11 2SF

Approximate re-opening of head office September 2026.

Are you passionate about making a difference in the housing sector? If you enjoy owning delivery, working across varied projects and operating in a genuinely modern digital environment with no legacy infrastructure, this is the role for you.

Over the past two years, Cobalt has completed a full transition to a modern, SaaS first, cloud-native technology estate. There is no legacy on premise infrastructure, no technical debt anchored to old servers, and no “keep the lights on” estate management. In parallel to our Digital transformation, our business has grown significantly with an in-house repairs service, new warehouse and new developments. This role is key in driving further improvements within our Digital platforms, which will enable the business to deliver critical improvements in service quality and performance to our customers, as well as an enhanced colleague experience within the context of expectations of service efficiencies across the organisation.

Key Responsibilities

• As part of the Digital team, work to embed Cobalt’s vision, values and culture across the business and with wider suppliers and partners.
• Assist the Transformation Programme Manager, the Head of Digital and the Director of Digital Transformation in all administrative aspects of the Digital Programme.
• Lead transition from project delivery into operational business as usual.
• Plan and manage data migration activities as part of system replacement or upgrade projects.
