Our client is seeking a Technical Lead of Digital Products to provide technical direction and assurance across a range of digital platforms. This role works closely with Product Managers and Product Owners as a technical business partner and supports the Head of Digital Products & User Experience in shaping and delivering high-quality digital services.

This is a leadership and oversight role rather than a hands-on development position, focused on platform quality, supplier management, and technical decision-making.

• Provide technical oversight across digital platforms, ensuring solutions are scalable, secure, accessible, and fit for purpose
• Act as a technical partner to Product Managers and Product Owners, supporting product delivery and prioritisation
• Support the Head of Digital Products & UX as a key technical advisor
• Manage day-to-day technical relationships with external digital agencies and suppliers
• Identify and resolve technical risks, issues, and dependencies across digital products
• Use data, performance insights, and user feedback to support continuous improvement
• Ensure platforms meet security and accessibility standards.
• Maintain clear technical standards, documentation, and ways of working

• Experience providing technical oversight or assurance for digital platforms
• Strong understanding of digital platforms, architecture, and third-party delivery models
• Experience working in a product-led or agile environment alongside Product Managers and Product Owners
• Familiarity with Drupal CMS and Microsoft Dynamics 365
• Experience managing external suppliers or digital agencies
• Working knowledge of accessibility, performance, and security best practice

• Able to translate technical considerations for non-technical stakeholders
• Confident working at the intersection of product, UX, and technology
• Strong judgement, problem-solving, and risk awareness
• Collaborative, organised, and comfortable influencing without direct authority

This is an excellent opportunity for a technically minded digital professional looking to move away from hands-on delivery and into a platform-focused leadership role within a product-driven environment.
