The vacancy

DN Colleges are recruiting an IT Business & Assurance Officer, an exciting opportunity within our IT team. This role supports the work of the IT Contracts and Suppliers Manager, and covers an interesting and diverse portfolio including software asset management, hardware asset management, procurement, budget management, supplier and contract management, and compliance, and governance.

Working within a small supportive and approachable team of experienced professionals, you will be joining the team that controls the business of IT.  This includes renewing software packages, tracking IT equipment movements, recording budget spend, allocating loan equipment, arranging quotes, paying invoices amongst other activities.  Full training will be provided to ensure that you achieve your potential.
