Delivery of our five-year transformation outcomes will be a complex and significant undertaking.

Increase our capability working side-by-side with HMRC colleagues to deliver agreed pieces of our backlog. 4. Implement new, AI-driven, and digital iterative ways of working: Accelerate end-to-end changes across various project sizes and complexities. 5. Upskill and educate: Ensure that leadership and teams are equipped to drive and support the transformation agenda, providing learning and skills to embrace digital and new ways of working and setting the tone for the required cultural change. 6. Provide strategic leadership support for transformation: Partner HMRC's Executive Committee and senior leadership community to institute new ways of working, and foster a culture that enables agile, innovative approaches to designing and running services to thrive. Advise and help ExCom to deliver on opportunities to address structural organisational design opportunities that would accelerate the pace of change.
