I am pleased to announce that starting at the end of April 2024 I will be working with Bradford College to provide Interim Head of IT Services support while they search for the right person to lead the teams on a permanent basis.

Bradford College is a large college with students studying a range of courses such as T-Levels, vocational qualifications, community courses, apprenticeships and both undergraduate and postgraduate degrees.

In addition to helping the senior team in their search for a permanent Head of IT Services the focus of the role will be:

  • Ensuring that the IT Services teams continue to hit their KPIs and other performance criteria
  • Delivery of the IT aspects of the T-Levels Wave 5 refurbishment project
  • Delivery of the IT aspects of the Garden Mills refurbishment project
  • Early stage IT input and planning for the new Junction Mills Future Technology Centre
  • Ensuring that the college has Cyber Essentials Plus certification and planning for ISO27001
  • Delivering a comprehensive capital refresh programme
  • Working across college to ensure that high quality IT resources are available where needed and that utilisation is high
  • Provide leadership continuity to the team

This is an exciting engagement and I look forward to helping the college through this fast moving time.
