  • Act as a Programme or Portfolio Manager, working collaboratively with colleagues to ensure effective project delivery, governance, and financial management.
  • Partner closely with technical teams to support delivery governance, manage risks, and help recover projects that require additional support.
  • Collaborate effectively with global teams across multiple regions and cultures, including Europe, the USA, and India.
  • Support and develop project team members by providing guidance, coaching, and opportunities for learning while ensuring delivery against agreed targets.
  • Contribute to organisational improvement initiatives, helping to drive innovation, continuous improvement, and more effective ways of working.
