• Collaborate with teams around the world.
• Drive meaningful change with visible impact.
• Join a team big on improvement, best practice, and doing things the right way.

A role you will love

Your role will carry great responsibility involving matrix team management, planning, scheduling, and reporting. You will ensure delivery to the defined scope and quality, whilst managing within agreed cost and time constraints to achieve the anticipated benefits and goals.

• Shape delivery structures and governance: scope, RAID, plans, dependencies, and reporting with real transparency.
• Energise cross‑functional teams, remove impediments, and foster highly collaborative ways of working.
• Partner with senior stakeholders to align objectives, manage expectations, and make informed trade‑offs.
• Support transformation initiatives that span teams, time‑zones, and third‑party partners.

What will you bring to the role?

Other key skills required for the role include:

• A track record delivering large‑scale IT change across multiple teams or workstreams.
• Fluency in Agile and structured practices (Scrum, Kanban, and Prince 2) and when to flex the playbook.
• Clear, confident communication with the ability to influence, simplify, and decide.
• A knack for root‑cause thinking, dependency mapping, and risk management that actually drives action.
• Leadership that motivates people across global locations and disciplines to do their best work.
