Job Description

Are you ready to take your career to the next level in a dynamic, predominantly remote environment? We are seeking an experienced Technical Portfolio Manager, Senior Programme Manager, or Senior Project Manager to join our professional services team, headquartered in the heart of Central London. This global role offers the flexibility of remote work with occasional international travel, fully expensed, to meet the demands of this exciting position.

In this pivotal role, you will have the strategic oversight of a diverse portfolio of technical initiatives, ensuring they align seamlessly with our organizational objectives and client expectations. You will play a crucial part in supporting a major service line, contributing to the largest technology program our client has undertaken to date.

We’re looking for an individual who has operated at a Programme Management level and has successfully engaged with C-Suite stakeholders from both business and technology sectors. You will deliver high-impact technical solutions on an enterprise scale. A vital aspect of this position involves creating and designing comprehensive strategic technical documents to facilitate informed decision-making before project execution. You will lead engaging meetings with key stakeholders, confidently navigate challenging conversations, and handle complex discussions with grace.

Your focus will be to manage a portfolio of modern technology projects and programs on a global stage. As this role will require interaction across various time zones, you must be open to flexible working hours, including some early or late calls. We seek a dedicated professional who thrives in dynamic settings, rather than someone seeking a traditional 9-to-5 work schedule.

Key Qualifications:

  • A robust background with approximately 8+ years of experience in technical project, portfolio, or delivery management, specifically in business-centric and technical solution delivery roles.
  • Proven expertise in demand management, budget development, and resource planning.
  • Strong capability in supporting pre-project activities and leading the creation of technical proposals, scoping documents, and Statements of Work (SoW).
  • Successful track record in spearheading technology initiatives and collaborating with various third-party vendors to deliver complex products and services.
  • Effective team-building skills and pragmatic problem-solving abilities, capable of working within international and multicultural environments.
  • A keen understanding of the holistic business needs and applying this knowledge to oversee the management of projects and programs.
  • Excellent multitasking abilities to prioritize competing demands while maintaining a high level of detail and quality.
  • Exceptional interpersonal skills to foster collaboration and build strong business relationships.
  • Outstanding written and verbal communication skills in English.
  • Resilience under pressure, ability to meet tight deadlines, and flexibility in work practices as needed.
  • Comfort with handling sensitive and confidential information responsibly.
  • Willingness to travel internationally as necessary and to accommodate US time zones for meetings when required.

This is not just another job opportunity; it’s a chance to make a significant impact in a forward-thinking organization. If you are passionate about delivering strategic technical solutions and ready to embrace a diverse and exciting role, we want to hear from you. Competitive salary dependent on experience is offered.
