We are focused on creating an inclusive environment where our employees thrive based upon integrity, strong work ethic, a one-team ethos, desire to learn and develop and a commitment to deliver unwavering service excellence to our customers, vendors and partners.

Job Overview/Purpose
Every day may be different – it’s the nature of managing programmes and complex projects!
Your primary responsibility will be to ensure that programmes and large-scale projects under your management run smoothly, delivering value and aligning with strategic business objectives. You will oversee multiple interrelated projects within a programme while also being hands-on in managing individual complex projects when required. If you are a passionate Programme Manager who thrives on strategic oversight, stakeholder engagement, and driving successful outcomes, then come and join our enthusiastic team.
This role is a blend of customer-facing programme and project management (65% billable work), supporting direct reports (20% line management) and supporting our sales organisation (15% Pre-Sales engagement). You will be hands-on in ensuring successful customer deliveries while also contributing to business growth by managing a team successfully, shaping proposals, engaging in pre-sales discussions, and helping to define the strategic direction of new engagements.
On a day-to-day basis, you will be liaising with our wonderful Customers (both new and longstanding) and working with nearly all areas of the business, including Pre-Sales, Commercial, Consultancy, Support, and Finance. Your activities will include strategic planning, overseeing programme delivery, directly managing high-impact projects, forecasting, communicating progress, mitigating risks, and managing interdependencies. You will also manage budgets and ensure that projects within the programme deliver value and align with business goals.
