As our Programme Support Officer, you’ll be at the heart of our Cyber Resilience Programme, helping us build a secure, reliable and resilient digital future. We’re all in on strengthening our systems, and your superb coordination skills will make it happen.

What you’ll be doing

Every day, you’ll be at the centre of our Cyber Resilience Programme, ensuring our plans, actions and risks are meticulously tracked and managed. This role is crucial to strengthening our approach to safe, efficient and resident-focused ICT delivery following a cyber incident in November 2025.

You’ll coordinate workstreams, chase actions and follow up with colleagues across the Council to keep everything moving forward, even when resources are stretched.

Communication and organisation are at the heart of what you do. You’ll coordinate key meetings, technical working groups and programme boards, preparing clear agendas, papers and accurate minutes at pace. Managing our SharePoint files and programme documentation will also be your responsibility, ensuring everything is organised, safe and easily accessible.

You’ll work closely with workstream leads to resolve queries and ensure any potential delays or risks are escalated to the Programme Lead immediately. Through efficient, proactive coordination, you’ll ensure our teams can deliver their goals with care and competence.

Excellent communication and partnership skills are essential, as you’ll collaborate with ICT teams, HR colleagues, service managers and senior leaders across the Council. You’ll have a strong understanding of programme governance, risk management and change control, coupled with experience supporting cyber security or ICT programmes.

A basic grasp of ICT technical language and cyber security best practice is vital.
