Are you ready to take your career to new heights? Edinburgh Airport is looking for an enthusiastic and driven IT Change Lead to join our dynamic team.

As the IT Change Lead, you will play a crucial role in supporting our ambitious growth strategy by facilitating a wide range of technology changes across the airport. You will directly contribute to the delivery of technology at all levels, from supporting capital delivery programmes and construction-led activity, through to implementing smaller-scale IT solutions that have a direct and positive impact on the business.

These smaller-scale solutions could include supporting the development and implementation of cyber security frameworks, scoping and delivering practical IT tools, or responding quickly to emerging business needs where technology can provide a timely and effective solution. This is an exciting opportunity to see first hand how the initiatives you help shape and deliver improve the way our teams operate, enhance the experience of our campus partners, and support Edinburgh Airport in achieving its future growth ambitions.
