We’re working with a leading global consultancy on a Project Manager contract supporting a major central government transformation programme. This is an opportunity to join a complex, high-profile programme where strong planning, governance and stakeholder management will be critical to keeping multiple workstreams aligned and delivery on track.
As a Project Manager, you’ll take ownership of the integrated programme plan, critical path and RAID management, working across multiple workstreams to coordinate dependencies, track key milestones and ensure risks are identified and escalated early.
What you’ll be doing
- Maintain the integrated project plan, critical path and key milestones.
- Own and maintain RAID logs, ensuring risks, assumptions, issues and dependencies are actively managed.
- Coordinate delivery across multiple workstreams and manage key programme dependencies.
- Maintain dependency tracking across the wider authority/programme environment.
- Produce milestone and delivery reporting for senior stakeholders.
- Identify delivery risks early and ensure appropriate escalation and mitigation.
- Facilitate stakeholder workshops and support effective programme governance.
- Work closely with delivery teams and senior stakeholders to maintain alignment across the programme.
What you’ll need
- Proven experience working as a Project Manager within transformation or operating-model programmes.
- Strong experience managing integrated plans, critical paths and RAID logs.
- Excellent programme governance and reporting experience.
- Strong stakeholder management and workshop facilitation skills.
- Experience coordinating multiple workstreams and complex dependencies.
- Previous central government experience would be highly desirable.
- Active SC Security Clearance is essential.
- Comfortable working in a hybrid environment with 1–3 days per week onsite in London/Croydon.
If you’re an experienced Project Manager with strong transformation, governance and stakeholder management experience and hold active SC clearance, we’d be keen to hear from you.
