As a culturally rich university with a deep commitment to the public good, the DMU community strives to maintain a stimulating and inclusive environment where staff and students are able to thrive.

Faculty/ Directorate
This role sits within the Marketing & Communications Directorate, supporting the delivery and ongoing development of the University’s internal digital communications and engagement platforms. The team works collaboratively across faculties and professional services to deliver high-quality, user-focused digital experiences that support staff communication, collaboration and organisational effectiveness.
Role
As Intranet Project Delivery Coordinator, you will help to enhance and embed the University’s staff intranet, built on Microsoft Modern SharePoint. You will take ownership of the platform following its recent launch, ensuring it evolves to meet the needs of the organisation and its users.
The role focuses on improving user experience, driving engagement and adoption, and ensuring the intranet aligns with institutional goals. You will support on governance, accessibility, content strategy and sustainability, ensuring the platform supports effective communication and collaboration across the University.
Ideal Candidate
We are seeking a highly organised and proactive professional, educated to degree level (or with equivalent experience), with proven experience delivering or coordinating large-scale digital projects. You will have strong knowledge of intranet platforms, ideally Microsoft 365 and SharePoint Online, alongside expertise in content governance, information architecture and accessibility.
You will bring excellent stakeholder engagement and influencing skills, with the ability to work effectively across all levels of a complex organisation. Experience in driving adoption and leading change initiatives is essential, as is the ability to manage suppliers, budgets and project delivery.
With strong analytical and organisational skills, you will be a confident communicator and a collaborative team player, capable of balancing strategic thinking with hands-on delivery. A background in Higher Education and relevant project management qualifications (e.g. PRINCE2, Agile or APM) would be advantageous.
