Contract Description

IT Operations Lead (SC cleared) | Government Data Service | Outside IR35

I'm looking to speak with experienced IT Operations/Live Service professionals for a long-term government data programme.

This is a hands-on role, not a big enterprise Head of Operations position. You'll be owning the live service across a small support function and working closely with Data, DevOps, Platform and Software teams.

Key experience:

  • Live service/IT operations ownership
  • Incident, problem, change and release management
  • Major incident coordination
  • Service Desk leadership
  • SLA/KPI reporting and service performance
  • Continual service improvement
  • Strong stakeholder management
  • Comfortable operating in a technical, public sector environment

The role also needs someone resilient and pragmatic who can manage challenging stakeholders and stay close to the detail.

Contract details:

  • c. £400/day
  • Outside IR35
  • Fully remote, UK based
  • Initial contract through to Feb 2027
  • Good chance of extension
  • Current SC assumed for now
