- Span the full lifecycle, from early design and mobilisation through to implementation and transition into live service, with a clear focus on quality, governance and measurable outcomes.
Specific responsibilities include:
- Lead multi-disciplinary teams to deliver end-to-end solutions, from shaping requirements and design through build, test, deployment, and handover.
- Run client workshops and governance forums, turning complex business and operational needs into clear, templated solutions.
- Provide delivery oversight and solution governance, ensuring designs are compliant, supportable, and aligned to agreed standards.
- Ensure quality and proactively manage risks, mitigating delivery challenges and supporting a smooth transition to live services.
- Build strong client relationships through credible interactions.
- Develop and support consultants, strengthening the overall capability of the group.
- Contribute to broader strategic thinking, advising on roadmap priorities, service improvement opportunities, and transformation choices.
