What you'll be doing

You'll take ownership of demand, capacity and resource planning across the Websites function, ensuring there is a clear and prioritised pipeline of work aligned to business objectives and customer outcomes. Working closely with Product Owners, Discipline Leads and stakeholders, you'll forecast demand, provide visibility of future workload, and help ensure the right resources are in place to deliver key priorities.

You'll play a central role in coordinating planning and prioritisation activities, helping teams understand effort, dependencies and delivery timelines. By monitoring capacity, identifying risks and highlighting resource constraints, you'll recommend solutions that keep delivery on track and support informed decision-making.

Using tools such as Jira, Excel and Power BI, you'll produce meaningful reporting and insights that provide transparency of work, performance and delivery health. You'll also drive consistency across planning, governance and operational processes, helping to improve how the function manages and delivers work.

Alongside planning responsibilities, you'll support day-to-day website operations, including governance forums, change management processes and business reporting. You'll champion continuous improvement, identifying opportunities to simplify ways of working, increase efficiency and enhance the overall effectiveness of the Websites team.

• Confident facilitating planning discussions, providing constructive challenge and driving clear decisions and outcomes
• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, using data and insight to inform planning and improve performance
• Hands-on experience with planning, reporting and collaboration tools, including Jira, Excel and Power BI
• Excellent communication skills, a continuous improvement mindset, and a passion for finding smarter, more efficient ways of working

Our customer first behaviours put customers and members at the heart of how we work together. They are the set of behaviours that every colleague needs to display, in every role:

• Feel what customers feel - We step into our customers' shoes, using their feedback and insights to empathise with them and to understand their needs, so that every decision we make starts and finishes with our customers in mind
• Say it straight - We are brave in speaking out and saying what we think - we're honest and direct with good intent, openly sharing diverse perspectives to reach the best conclusions and using language everyone can understand
• Push for better - We don't settle for mediocrity, we challenge the status quo, taking responsibility for continuous improvement and personal development
• Get it done - We prioritise what will have the greatest impact, we are decisive, and we take accountability for delivering brilliant customer outcomes

You can strengthen your application by showing how our customer first behaviours resonate with you, and where you may have already demonstrated these.
