We're seeking a commercially-focused PMO Consultant to provide independent oversight of a major value creation agenda. This is an opportunity to sit at the centre of strategic transformation, operational improvement, and business performance.
You’ll work closely with Functional Leaders, Cluster Leaders, and FP&A, bringing together operational and financial insight to identify risks, challenge assumptions and strengthen delivery confidence. With exposure to Executive Committee, Board, and investors, you’ll have a visible role providing governance, transparency, and performance challenge needed to ensure strategic initiatives deliver against agreed financial and business outcomes.
Role Highlights
- Maintain a consolidated portfolio view of value creation initiatives, linking activity to strategic objectives, budgets and financial targets.
- Monitor forecast and realised benefits, identifying gaps between initiative commitments and actual P&L performance.
- Challenge initiative owners where delivery confidence falls or benefits are at risk, supporting practical recovery planning.
- Provide executive-level reporting covering progress, risks, benefits, performance gaps and delivery confidence.
- Where required, take hands-on project management responsibility for high-risk or strategically critical initiatives.
