The Department of Health and Social Care is offering £75k a head for two new senior managers to help support the organisation’s ambition of becoming a ‘digitally enabled policy department’
The Department of Health and Social Care is recruiting for two senior managers to help deliver on its ambition to “radically transform the digital transformation function” of the organisation.
The positions both sit at deputy director level and, respectively, will be focused on the what the jobs advert describes as the department’s “digital transformation front door” and “digital delivery and capability”.
The former role comes with “accountability for building digital’s reputation, as a transparent and expert lead for digital services”. The postholder will also oversee the DHSC’s submissions for digital spend controls and manage the organisation’s pipeline of planned technology projects.
The post will require close collaboration with stakeholders across the department and the wider healthcare sector, as well as the likes of the Central Digital and Data Office, the advert indicates.

The chosen candidate for the delivery and capability role, meanwhile, “will be responsible for UCD, product, delivery ops and tech teams”. The objectives of these units include “rapidly developing prototype products to support policy [or] ministerial requests”, and furthering the DHSC’s credentials in areas including user research, and testing of digital services.
The advert added: “Transforming DHSC into a digital department is a priority. You will be responsible for DHSC’S Digital Capability Service, including digital training to SCS and non-digital staff in DHSC as well as for DDaT professionals. You will be responsible for developing and scaling that offer.”
Both of the positions come with an annual salary of £75,000. The successful applicants can choose to base themselves from either London or Leeds. But the department advises that, either way, visits to the capital will be required “on a regular basis” and that at least 60% of working hours must be spent in the office. Applications for the positions are open until 11.55pm on 2 September.
Between them, the two new hires will manage a collective tally of 40 people on a mission to “make DHSC a more digitally-enabled policy department”.
The advert said: “Together you will: lead with a clear vision of a digital end-state within the department; direct on the strategic ownership and composition of portfolios; provide strategic steers and highest-level priorities; identify specific opportunity areas; raise [the] profile of digital work within DHSC and health family; [and] mandate and support formal governance processes across DT (digital transformation).”
