Change and Release Manager
The Change Manager runs the day‑to‑day governance engine across the full change lifecycle, ensuring portfolio, delivery, change and release governance operate as a single, coherent system across CTB, RTB and BAU change.

- Coordinate governance forums including IT Committee, IT ExCo, RRB and TCAB.
- Prepare governance packs, track decisions and ensure follow up actions are closed.
- Maintain portfolio level transparency, producing accurate, decision ready reporting on status, risk, dependencies, cost and benefits.
- Execute Change & Release governance, including forward planning, conflict management and production readiness controls.
- Enforce governance standards and mandatory artefacts, managing exceptions and breaches.
- Identify and surface systemic risk, trends and hotspots across the change portfolio.
Change & Release Governance Oversight
- Hold accountability for Change & Release governance as part of the wider lifecycle.
- Ensure production readiness governance is embedded, not a late‑stage control.
Continuous Improvement & Audit
- Drive ongoing improvement in governance maturity, simplicity and effectiveness.
- Act as accountability holder for audit findings and remediation actions relating to change governance.
Data, Reporting & Continuous Improvement:
- Develop and maintain dashboards to track success/failure rates, volume, service impact, release cadence, and change “hot spots.”
- Highlight systemic trends, recurring weak points, and improvement opportunities.
- Report on all monthly/quarterly/annual volumetrics, trends, KI’s.
