This role will lead the PMO activity across a complex strategic programme, bringing structure, coordination and clear governance across several workstreams. The programme includes an organisational restructure within a unionised environment, so discretion, clear communication and careful stakeholder management will be important.

You will work closely with the CIO, Digital leadership team and supporting HR and Finance functions to ensure the programme is properly planned, governed and delivered.

Your responsibilities will include:

Owning the programme roadmap, resource planning and performance reporting
Monitoring delivery, benefits, risks, issues, assumptions and dependencies

Supporting compliance with legal, internal policy and Trade Union requirements
Establishing and managing key PMO processes
Providing guidance and leadership to PMO colleagues where required
Using data and AI tools to improve reporting, efficiency and decision-making

What we are looking for

You will have experience leading PMO or portfolio activity within a large, complex and matrixed organisation.
You should also have:

Experience working directly with CIO-level and senior leadership stakeholders
Strong programme governance, planning and delivery management experience
Experience coordinating organisational change or restructuring programmes
Strong Excel and data analysis skills
Financial awareness, including business case development and benefits tracking
A structured and hands-on approach to producing programme documentation
The ability to work calmly and effectively in a confidential and fast-moving environment
Experience managing or developing PMO teams
A SAFe Lean Portfolio Management, SAFe Agilist, SPC or equivalent Agile portfolio qualification

Experience working with Trade Unions, within Digital restructuring programmes or in the transport or aviation sector would be useful but is not essential.
MoP or MSP Practitioner qualifications would also be beneficial.

Working approach

This role will suit someone who is organised, collaborative and comfortable working with senior stakeholders. You will need to balance strategic oversight with the practical delivery of reports, plans, business cases and governance materials.

The organisation requires a minimum of two days per week onsite in London.
