However, this is a global role that may require some global travel (fully expensed) but most of the work can be done from the comfort of your own home. The Senior Project Manager / Programme Manager / Portfolio Manager is responsible for the strategic oversight and successful delivery of a portfolio of technical initiatives, ensuring alignment with organisational goals and client expectations. This role will focus on supporting a significant service line, in the largest technology programme of work our client has ever been involved in. We essentially need someone who has operated at Programme Management level, has dealt with C-Suite Stakeholders from business and technology and has delivered Data & AI solutions on an enterprise level. There is a written side to it too, where you will be writing and designing high level, strategic technical documents for the business to digest, prior to the Programme / Project executions. There will be several meetings that you will be running with key stakeholders in both the business and technology, where you would have to be confident enough to hold your own, run the meetings and be prepared to be challenged…by sometimes difficult stakeholders on occasions! The role is for the Strategy and implementation of AI and Data services as an emerging priority within the company. This role will serve as the primary liaison between the Business & Methodology and Leading Change groups and the Data & AI technical team, driving transparency, consistency, and efficiency across Data & AI projects. As this has global coverage, there may be some early / late calls. You must be prepared for this.

However, we want someone dedicated and definitely not someone who wants a hardened 9am – 5pm kind of position!
