You'll enjoy storytelling, look to identify associations and gaps, ask the questions others don’t, drive out clarity from ambiguity and be able to challenge the norm to drive business outcome.

• Ability to communicate openly with confidence by questioning and gaining context to understand clearly what is needed during interactions at all levels of the organisation.
• Relationship building skills to build and harness strong working relationships with key partners.
• Ability to influence and encourage others to ensure the team is setup for success.
• Balance assertiveness with co-operation to enable truly collaborative working partnerships to achieve shared outcomes.
• Get results, analyse data, and deliver desired outcomes.
• Passion to develop diversity through team & individual learning and development.

Essential

Experience in following areas:

• Experience of complex programme delivery / corporate strategy and ability to align delivery to meeting programme and organisation’s requirements.
• Significant experienced in stakeholder management in a matrix organisation environment and vendor & partner management understanding and interaction.
• Track record of successfully managing a portfolio of multi-million-pound, technical IT projects with an understanding of modern technologies and associated commercial benefits.
• Demonstrable leadership experience of project team or engineering teams, and direct or indirect line management responsibilities.
• Project Management skills in FastPath and Agile and good understanding of managing costs, plans, risks, and opportunities.

We’d also welcome someone with the following desirable skills and experience:

• Awareness of technology funding models, budgeting & cost allocations in Cloud based environments would be welcome.
• Experience of working in large complex organisations in programme delivery roles.

In return, we offer an excellent package including Competitive base salary (dependent on location) plus annual discretionary bonus, 15% employer pension contribution, 4% flexible cash pot (take as cash), private medical insurance, 30 days holiday plus bank holidays and access to various staff discounts!

Together we make it possible.

We’re happy to consider options other than 9-to-5 office-based work. To us “Agile working” is more than working flexibly - it’s about entrusting colleagues to think creatively about how, when and where they work, to deliver their very best. Our team works a hybrid working pattern, and we may meet in office either weekly or every other week (depending on the week) for collaborative meetings, workshops, 121's. Please feel free to apply, and let’s discuss further.
