Local Government Reorganisation
Reigate and Banstead Borough Council is part of the government’s plans for Local Government Reorganisation (LGR) scheduled to take place in April 2027. This means the current two-tier system, where services are split between Surrey County Council and district and borough councils like Reigate, will be replaced with two unitary councils made up of East and West Surrey, which will handle all local services. Reigate and Banstead Borough Council will form part of the new East Surrey unitary authority.
Although this may lead to some uncertainty for anyone considering a role with us, this process will take some time and during that time we still need to provide services. When local government is reorganised, most staff will transfer to the new council(s) which may offer additional opportunities for career development and variety as part of a larger organisation.

Operate confidently in a legal/regulated environment: Ensure solutions meet expectations for confidentiality, privacy, security, auditability, and appropriate governance. Partner with risk, compliance, and information security teams to deliver safely. Influence and drive change: Work effectively in a traditionally change-resistant environment building coalitions, bringing stakeholders with you, and introducing modern delivery approaches in a way that is sustainable and adopted (not just mandated ). Recruit and retain talent: Support hiring, onboarding, performance management, and capability planning. Build high-performing teams with the right balance of skills across engineering, cloud, data, and AI. Collaborate with Product, Legal SMEs, and stakeholders: Translate business outcomes into technical plans; shape roadmaps; manage trade-offs; and maintain transparency on risks, dependencies, and delivery timelines. Drive cloud and platform excellence: Provide leadership across Azure-based delivery, including (as relevant) App Services, storage (Blob), Key Vault, networking, container platforms, identity (Entra ID), and integration patterns. Ensure infrastructure, security, and cost management are engineered-in, not bolted-on. What we are looking for: Proven experience leading engineers across multiple teams in a complex organisation. Demonstrable ability to improve engineering performance through standards, coaching, and pragmatic governance. Comfortable with Agile/Scrum/Kanban and able to apply them appropriately in corporate environments. Hands-on technical credibility.

Career Level: The career level assigned to this role is level 4. The career level framework provides a formal structure for the business services functions at the firm. The framework, which ranges from level 1 to level 7, clearly defines the responsibilities, skills and competencies required at each level.
