Our joint expertise in trade and business provides us with a unique opportunity to unleash the power of UK businesses, reform regulation to reduce burdens and unlock post-Brexit freedoms.

JOB DESCRIPTION

Let us tell you a little bit about the role…
As a Regional IT Service Manager, you will be based in one of our key Places for Growth locations and be responsible for overseeing and managing IT services across other offices within your designated region. There are two roles available, based in one of the DBT hub sites Darlington, Edinburgh or Cardiff. This role requires office attendance from Monday to Friday each week, as well as regular travel to locations within your office’s region, to ensure efficient operation and coordination of DBT’s IT services. There may also be the need to travel frequently to other sites outside your region, to help with office installations and support of DBT colleagues. Travel to your primary office location of either Darlington, Edinburgh or Cardiff will not be paid for by DBT, but costs for travel to an office which is not your main location will be covered.
You will be part of a wider Regional IT Service Management team, ensuring the delivery of high-quality technical support, maintenance, and local IT service management. Additionally, you will collaborate with key stakeholders at your sites, prioritise projects, and develop strategies to enhance the IT service provided throughout the region.
