Job summary

The Infected Blood Compensation Authority (IBCA) is a new arms-length body set up, at unprecedented pace, to administer compensation to people whose lives have been impacted by the infected blood scandal.

IBCA will ensure payment is made in recognition of the wrongs experienced by those who have been infected by HIV, Hepatitis B or C, as well as those who love and care for them. They have been frustrated and distressed by the delays in achieving proper recognition, and we must help put this right.

We are committed to putting the infected and affected blood community at the centre of every decision we make and every step we take to build our organisation to deliver compensation payments.

IBCA employees will be public servants. If successful in this role you will be appointed directly into IBCA, on IBCA terms and conditions as a public servant.

Successful applicants will join the Civil Service Pension Scheme.

Please note that the mission of IBCA means that it is likely to be fully operational for a period of approximately up to 5 years, after which IBCA will become a smaller residual service. When IBCAs work begins to wind down, IBCA employees will receive support and practical guidance to find a new role, whether in the Civil Service, another Arms Length Body (ALB), or an external employer.

Job description

IBCAs Technical Change Enablement Manager is responsible for maximising the number of successful technical changes by ensuring that risks are properly assessed, authorising changes to proceed, and managing the change and release schedules.

Unlike traditional "Change Management," this ITIL 4 aligned role focuses on working within a fast paced, agile delivery organisation. Whilst agility is key, this role ensures responsiveness and agility does not come at the cost of effectively managed changes, protecting the live service and driving engagement and adherence to Change related policies and processes across the organisation.

Governance & Process Orchestration:

Own and evolve the Change Enablement function, ensuring it integrates seamlessly with Incident, Problem, and Configuration Management (CMDB).
Categorise changes into ITIL aligned categories and build the associated workflows ensuring the effective management of all change types.
Lead the Change Advisory Board (CAB) for all non standard technical changes, focusing on collaboration and enablement, whilst ensuring the protection of live service at all times.
Work closely and collaboratively with the operationally focussed Change and Implementation Team and ensure the alignment of the activities around operational change readiness with the technical change scheduling and delivery.
Represent the Technical Change processes and function in the various governance teams and delivery squads, ensuring early sight of the change pipeline and organisational planning cycles.

Risk Assessment & Quality Assurance:

Evaluate the impact and risk of proposed changes to ensure service continuity.
Ensure all changes have robust technical peer to peer reviews and sign offs, UAT and regression testing plans, technical release and execution plans, back out plans and communication and stakeholder engagement
Ensure that all risks relating to the Technical Change Enablement policy and processes are recorded, managed and mitigated where possible.

Change Scheduling & Coordination:

Maintain the Change Schedule/Pipeline to avoid resource conflicts, technical planning clashes and ensure that change freezes are employed as and when required by the business during business critical periods.
Act as the point of escalation for conflicting technical change requests and apply authority to the submission and approvals of change related activity.
Produce a suite of MI to support the Change Enablement process including Monthly Reporting, FSOC, Post Implementation Review action status.

Continuous Improvement & Automation:

Identify opportunities to automate the change pipeline (DevOps integration).
Analyse Change Success Rates and Post-Implementation Reviews (PIRs) to identify trends and prevent recurring failures.
Shift-left the authorisation process by empowering teams to manage low-risk changes autonomously and build a range of standard changes to assist in the smooth running of low level change activities.

Communication and Collaboration:

Ensure a visibility and understanding of the Technical Change Enablement role across the organisation, working closely alongside the Operational Change and Integration team, and in support of the technical and delivery teams who will be the regular change raisers and implementers.
Establish strong working relationships and build trust with the Technical Change approver community to ensure confidence in the processes and the performance of the role.
