About the College/Department

Digital Solutions & Services are responsible for providing the digital platform to enable the best possible service to staff, students and stakeholders across the University and beyond. We take a collaborative approach to developing strategic goals to provide a diverse range of information technology and business services designed to support learning, teaching and research at the University of Derby.

Digital Solutions & Services are responsible for ensuring that the University’s IT capability is fit for purpose, future focused and able to protect, support and enhance the full breadth of services that will be delivered either on campus or digitally online with contributions across the department. We aim to assist students, teaching staff, support departments and collaborative partners to ensure we are making an impact on the University’s current and future digital landscape. 

About the Role

As a Digital Delivery Coordinator, you’ll be the organisational heartbeat of our technical delivery teams — keeping projects moving, information flowing and activity running smoothly across a busy digital environment. You’ll plan and track work, manage dependencies, coordinate technical resources and ensure documentation, reporting and governance are always sharp, accurate and audit-ready.

You’ll work across multiple technical workstreams, supporting deployments, testing phases, supplier activity and day-to-day operations. You won’t manage people, but you’ll influence widely — driving clarity, shaping meetings, escalating risks early and helping senior technical leads make informed decisions. This role is a brilliant launchpad into digital delivery or technical coordination. You’ll gain exposure to infrastructure, applications, data, service management and supplier engagement, building a strong foundation for future progression in a modern, ambitious digital department. This is a fast-paced, varied role where your organisation, communication and problem-solving skills will make a visible difference from day one.

Please note this is a 12 month fixed term contract.

The anticipated interview date is Wednesday 24th June 2026.

About You

The ideal candidate will be a highly organised and proactive professional with a proven ability to coordinate complex technical and digital delivery activities across multiple concurrent workstreams. You will excel in fast-paced environments, confidently managing competing priorities, identifying risks early, and ensuring projects remain on track through effective planning, communication, and follow-through.

With experience working throughout the technical delivery lifecycle; including deployments, testing phases, and change control processes; you will understand how to support successful delivery while maintaining accuracy and governance. You will be comfortable collaborating with technical teams, suppliers, and a broad range of stakeholders, translating complex information into clear documentation, actionable plans, and meaningful management reports.

A strong communicator with excellent Microsoft 365 skills, you will be able to produce insightful dashboards and management information that enable senior stakeholders to make informed decisions. Detail-oriented, calm under pressure, and highly structured in your approach, you will bring clarity and consistency to delivery environments, helping teams work more efficiently and effectively.

Holding a relevant degree or equivalent professional experience, you will be motivated to build and develop a career in digital delivery, project coordination, or technical operations.
