Across government, effective portfolio planning is critical to ensuring that digital investments deliver maximum value. As organisations manage increasingly complex portfolios of change, the ability to plan and schedule effectively, coordinate resources and maintain a clear picture of delivery is essential. Ofgem plays a vital role in the UKs energy system, protecting consumers and enabling a more secure, fair and sustainable energy future, and strong portfolio planning is central to ensuring that the needs, and expectations of the business are met in-line with agreed priorities.
Ofgem is on an ambitious transformation journey. To support this mission the Digital, Data and Security Services (DDSS) directorate, is delivering a wide-ranging portfolio of digital, data and AI initiatives. As demand continues to grow, ensuring that this portfolio is well-structured, achievable and aligned to strategic priorities is key to successful delivery.
As a Digital Portfolio Planner, you will have unique opportunity to help us effectively plan and deliver this important portfolio of work, ensuring that priorities, resources and schedules are aligned to maximise value and delivery strategic outcomes. You will work at the heart of portfolio decision-making, with the DDSS Lead Team, Portfolio Office, Digital Delivery, Demand, and Resource Teams to ensure projects are planned pragmatically. Your work will provide the transparency and coordination needed to help projects succeed and the insights to support senior management in making meaningful decisions.
This is a highly collaborative role, offering exposure across a broad range of digital initiatives and contact with a broad range of stakeholders. You will combine analytical skills with engagement skills to ensure that portfolio plans are dynamic, realistic and aligned with business priorities in a fast-paced environment.
