Background
Atkins has recently defined a “One Atkins 2020” Organisational strategy. To support this strategy, IS has defined an operating model for 2020 to revolutionise the way IS is provided to the organisation, moving from a BAU focus to a Business Value driven organisation. Key concepts include: Moving to digital products, adopting agile across the organisation, leveraging cloud, and focus on supporting bids and delivery of internal and commercial products.
This strategy needs developers who are truly “digital” – that is multi-skilled, user centred, agile and innovative, with expertise and curiosity in new and emerging technologies.
