We are seeking an experienced and dynamic delivery lead for our new Transactional Service Centre. As the Head of Transactional Service Centre (Delivery) you will be part of a Programme Team delivering a new concept within TVP. This is a new leadership role responsible for delivering high‑quality, cost‑effective services across People, Tasking & Resilience and Finance. The initial services to be brought into the Centre are People related but will have touch points in other departments. You will be able to shape the future of Enabling Services by designing, leading and delivering this critical function. You will drive operational excellence, continuous improvement, and digital transformation while ensuring outstanding stakeholder experience and service performance.
If you are a permanent member of staff applying for this role, please note it will be offered on a secondment basis. Important: All secondments must be supported in writing by your Line Manager and Head of Department/Commander or Deputy. Please attach written approval from your line manager and Head of Department in your application. If the secondment is not supported then the role may be offered on a fixed term contract basis, but this has implications including loss of continuous service protections.
Please note: Shift allowance, on‑call or other job related allowances from the previous role will not be protected unless they are attached to the new role for the duration of the secondment.
As part of the Thames Valley Police family you will enjoy a fantastic range of benefits including 30 days annual leave per annum, pro‑rata for part time (plus Bank Holidays), flexible working conditions, a wide range of lifestyle discounts, career development opportunities and the option to join a local government pension scheme.
Vetting. All posts require a level of Police Vetting as per the National Vetting Code of Practice. The residency requirement is necessary to enable all applicants to be checked in an equitable manner. Thames Valley Police will allow applicants to apply who do not necessarily reach the criteria as long as they have proven UK residency and supporting evidence where necessary. Applications will be considered on a case‑by‑case basis.
