I am a Lead DevOps engineer for the Technology Services team at the Justice Digital CloudOps & Criminal Injuries Compensation Authority. My role involves managing and working with talented DevOps engineers across the country, and providing support for 85k+ Ministry of Justice users.
After my 10 min daily meditation, my first coffee is around 9:00am. Armed with a mug of americano, I start my day. There is no typical day. I could be responding to live service incidents, meeting with stakeholders or participating in daily stand-ups. I am currently working on modernising our systems by rearchitecting and or migrating to the cloud using infrastructure as code.
One of the great things about working for Justice Digital is flexible hybrid working arrangements. It’s a great feeling of knowing and taking part in delivering a justice system that works for everyone in society. It is great to see that the management team is genuinely passionate and working actively to develop a talented diverse workforce, especially in management roles.
Beverley, Accessibility Lead, London
I’m the Accessibility Lead for Justice Digital. My team operates across all Digital areas of MOJ, including Criminal Injuries Compensations Authority, Office of the Public Guardian and HM Prison and Probation Service, to help support them in creating and delivering accessible websites and online content.
I am a bit of an insomniac, so my days tend to start just after 10am, with a big cup of tea! On a typical day, I’ll join a consultancy session, which might be either supporting a team in an activity such as creating an accessibility statement, reviewing the accessibility of their online service, or reviewing an online document they’ve created. I’ll then start working towards one of our strategic goals, such as building a Content Hub, manage contracts with third party suppliers, or join team ceremonies to help us organise ourselves as a team. No two days look the same!
My favourite thing about working at the MOJ is the people. We have really wonderful people here, who are innovative and really care about what they do. My job means I get to interact with lots of them! This is closely followed by flexibility. I need to start my days later than most people, in order to be the best I can be (me before 10am is not a pretty sight), and the flexibility here allows me to do that.
Jon, Head of Employee Engagement, Nottingham
My role is all about improving the day to day experiences of the people who work here. Personally, I find this incredibly motivating particularly when you consider the effect that long term negative experiences at work can have on people's mental and physical health.
So how do we do improve employee experience? One of the key things we do here is put employee voice at the centre of everything - with our frequent short sharp surveys helping us to have an ongoing dialogue with our people. This feedback focuses where we put local and organisational efforts and what we talk about in our communications. If it’s important to you - it's important to us!
With great people, a great mission and a true sense of purpose, there is plenty to love about Justice Digital and we only want to make things even better!
