At HMRC we are committed to creating a great place to work for all our colleagues; an inclusive and respectful environment that reflects the diversity of the society we serve. 

We want to maximise the potential of everyone who chooses to work for us and we offer a range of flexible working patterns and support to make a fulfilling career at HMRC accessible to you.

Diverse perspectives and experiences are critical to our success and we welcome applications from all people from all backgrounds with the experience and skills needed to perform this role.

Trader Support Service (TSS) is a top priority programme of work which sits within Borders and Trade. Our service will help traders familiarise themselves with the new processes for moving goods required under the Northern Ireland Protocol. We went live on the 21st December 2020 and whilst we will continue to run part of the TSS service as a programme there is now a requirement to own the live service incidents and problems, whilst partner managing the Consortium.

Job description

We are looking for a highly driven individual who has strong experience in handling incidents, problems and risks in an operational environment along with managing stakeholder and partner relationships. The role provides an excellent career opportunity to lead in a lively, fast-paced and changing environment as a member of our TSS leadership team. We would love to hear from anyone with experience in incidents and problem management within an Operational Delivery background.

You may be required to Travel as part of this role.

Your role will support Operational Delivery as part of the Service Management Team. You will deliver the best possible service for our traders, customs intermediaries and carriers using TSS. You will work closely with service management teams on a day-to-day basis for both TSS and Customs and Borders and multiple stakeholders. You will be responsible for coordinating the delivery of several service and commercial KPI's. You'll need to work in tandem with the Consortium to mitigate impacts and risk attached to the service management operation while working closely with commercial and finance teams to optimally run the service credit regime.

You will work with the partners to ensure incidents and problems are brought to conclusion in a timely manner whilst ensuring minimal impact to the customer. You will play a key role in project governance and working with partners, to ensure the agreed project outputs are delivered whilst managing any defects, risk and issues effectively within live service operation.

Responsibilities

You will support your senior manager to lead the partners across problems and incidents and associated risks to existing and new services aligned to TSS whilst ensuring smooth delivery of the programme within the live service operation. The role is fast-paced and you will be confident and comfortable at reacting to real time events as well as working independently and proactively on any new proposed changes that may arise from policy and changes to existing trader journeys.

Managing people, supervising and reviewing systems and services to ensure delivery of professional quality is key to this role. You'll also manage and identify risks and resolve any issues efficiently. You will present strong resolution recommendations in a timely manner outlining the consideration of other options, costs, benefits, impact and risks to enable management to make strategic, tactical and operational decisions. You will ensure the successful delivery of high-quality outcomes that meet the traders’ needs and give value for money.

You will need to establish ways to find and respond to feedback from customers about the services provided and ensure the most appropriate resourcing is in place to meet capacity and act promptly to reassess workloads and priorities when there are conflicting demands to maintain performance.
