The Opportunity
This is a client-side Digital Information Manager role on a high-profile infrastructure programme, supporting the delivery of several large-scale rail stations.
 
The function is evolving from a traditional "observe and report" approach into a proactive, data-led environment, where information management plays a central role in decision-making. You will be at the forefront of this shift-using data not just to monitor progress, but to drive performance, influence strategy, and hold the supply chain accountable.
 
This role offers exceptional visibility, with reporting lines into senior leadership, including executive-level stakeholders. It's an opportunity to step into a position where your work will directly impact project outcomes on a nationally significant programme.
 
Key Responsibilities
·Supply Chain Accountability
Act as the client's authority on information management, ensuring suppliers meet expectations around the quality, accuracy, and timeliness of their deliverables.
·Strategic Reporting
Manage and report on Information Delivery Packages (IDPs), forecasting outputs and providing clear, insight-driven updates to senior stakeholders.
·Data-Led Problem Solving
Identify capability and capacity issues within the supply chain (including beyond Tier 1), highlighting risks and driving improvements.
·Stakeholder Engagement
Lead discussions with contractors and partners, translating complex technical requirements into clear, practical business outcomes.
·Data Integrity & Assurance
Ensure that all project data is reliable, consistent, and robust-supporting confident, evidence-based decision-making.
·Day-to-Day Delivery
Work closely with project and delivery teams, attending key reviews, analysing submissions, and presenting findings to both technical and non-technical audiences.
 
About You
This role goes beyond technical delivery. While a strong foundation in information management is essential, success in this position depends on your ability to influence, communicate, and think strategically.
·Strong Communicator
Able to simplify complex topics and present them clearly to non-technical stakeholders.
·Confident & Influential
Comfortable leading challenging conversations, holding stakeholders accountable, and ensuring requirements are met.
·Strategic Mindset
Understands the "why" behind the data and can use insights to influence decisions and improve project outcomes.
·Self-Sufficient Operator
Able to take ownership of your area, work independently, and use senior leadership as support when needed.
·Relevant Experience
Background in complex infrastructure or built environment projects such as rail, stations, aviation, or nuclear.
Direct rail experience is beneficial but not essential.
·Technical Foundation
Experience working within ISO 19650 environments and managing information within a Common Data Environment (CDE) is expected.
