Job description

This is a hands-on Technology Adoption Manager role focused on helping Berkeley Oxford and Chiltern (BHOC) successfully adopt and embed the digital tools, systems and innovations developed and approved by Group IT. In your role, you will translate Group IT priorities into practical implementation within BHOC, coordinating rollouts and ensuring teams understand and make effective use of the available technology.

Working closely with Group IT, the Operations Board and departmental teams, you will identify where Group solutions add value, coordinate their implementation, provide practical training and support, and build confidence and capability across the business. You will also work with teams to understand their ways of working and identify wider opportunities for digital tools, AI or automation to improve efficiency, reduce administration or simplify processes, bringing these opportunities to Group IT for consideration and support. You will also monitor adoption and benefits of digital solutions, gather user feedback and provide a clear link back to Group IT to support continuous improvement and ensure BHOC remains aligned with the Group’s technology direction.

• Act as the key link between BHOC and Group IT, ensuring BHOC makes full use of Group systems, tools, training and initiatives.
• Gather BHOC requirements and user feedback and provide a clear feedback loop to Group IT, helping influence the development and improvement of Group tools and solutions.
• Provide hands-on training, coaching and support to teams and individuals, tailored to their roles and needs.
• Help teams use existing digital and AI tools to simplify processes, reduce duplication and improve productivity.
