Are you looking for a new challenge and an opportunity to put your digital knowledge to use to improve the way products are used and managed? If you are a highly-motivated individual with a genuine interest in digital products and instilling best practice, then London's City Hall has the perfect job for you.

Open Project System (OPS) is the GLA's grant and project management system, used across the GLA group. The Skills Gateway allows users to manage and report on learner information and interfaces with the OPS system. We are seeking an enthusiastic team player to join the team to support product iteration, evolution and optimisation activities.

Based within the OPS Delivery Team, you'll work closely with leads from across the GLA. You will play a key role in liaising with a variety of stakeholders, so communication and influencing will be key attributes you will need to bring to this role.

The ideal candidate will have excellent knowledge and experience of agile project delivery and will be comfortable working in a fast paced, high performance team.

You will be required to carry out a combination of process analysis, requirements gathering, wireframing and working with developers, engineers and technical architects to translate requirements into solutions. As well as being an excellent oral and digital communicator, the postholder will be analytical, unafraid to challenge and equally comfortable working within a multi-disciplinary team as well as by themselves.
