ICT Development & Support Officer in Fareham

Fareham Borough Council is looking to appoint a proactive and analytical ICT Development & Support Officer within its ICT Development Team. Within this role, you will provide technical support, manage system security and data quality, develop reports and automated solutions, and help drive continuous improvement across a range of corporate applications.

The position will require you to work closely with service teams, ICT colleagues and external suppliers. You will investigate and resolve system issues, support upgrades and integrations, assist with data migration projects, and ensure systems are used effectively and securely. If you enjoy problem-solving, working with data and technology, and making a tangible impact on the delivery of local public services, this could be an excellent role for you.

We are looking for an enthusiastic ICT professional with experience supporting and developing business-critical systems. You will have strong SQL, reporting and problem-solving skills, with the ability to analyse data, resolve technical issues and deliver practical solutions that meet service needs.

You'll be a confident and versatile communicator who can work effectively with colleagues, suppliers and service users, explaining technical concepts clearly to non-technical audiences. You will be organised, customer-focused and comfortable managing competing priorities, driving improvements and supporting projects such as system implementations, integrations and data migrations.

Experience within local government, GIS or property-based systems would be helpful but is not essential.

Working for Fareham Borough Council means joining a supportive, friendly, and forward-looking organisation committed to high-quality service delivery. We foster an open, trusting culture where ideas are encouraged, innovation is welcomed, and everyone has the opportunity to make a difference.

We offer a range of employee benefits, including an excellent pension scheme, generous leave, authorised parking, tech schemes and a car lease scheme.

Fareham Borough Council is committed to being a disability inclusive employer and in order to support this commitment, we are proud to be part of the Government's Disability Confident scheme demonstrating that we will provide a fair and equal route to employment with the Council.
