The successful candidate will need to embrace a dynamic and flexible approach, as the programme evolves maintaining a clear focus on the intended benefits and ensuring programme delivery is aligned to the realisation of the intended impact.

This requires the adoption a complexity aware approach, capturing learning and using data, information and insight to measure success, inform course correction decisions and ensure delivery of the required programme outcomes and impact.

This is an exciting opportunity for someone with the ability to blend PMO and analytical skills with fresh ideas, think critically, and explore innovative ways to deliver the expected benefits of INTs across Dorset.
