• Serve as a key contributor in governance forums, providing guidance and resolving technical challenges as they arise.
• Act as the primary contact for integration planning, issue resolution, and system readiness across assigned User Organisations.

About You:

• Strong background in the design, configuration, testing, and deployment of IT Service Management systems (e.g., ServiceNow, BMC Remedy, or similar).
• Solid understanding of large-scale public safety or critical communications programmes, ideally including previous work on secure networks.
• Experience working with or within Emergency Services organisations or other high-compliance environments.
• Skilled in technical stakeholder engagement, issue resolution, and translating between business needs and technical implementations.
• Able to manage complexity and change in fast-paced, multi-supplier programme environments.
• Confident communicator with strong documentation and presentation skills.
• Commercially aware, with a pragmatic and customer-focused approach to solution delivery.
