FULL DESCRIPTION

The Programme

This initiative is focused on fundamentally rethinking how operations are planned, delivered, and supported.

It involves reducing reliance on traditional approaches, optimising logistics and workflows, and embedding more efficient, sustainable ways of operating.

This is a programme with real scale, real visibility, and real impact.

The Role

You'll take ownership of multiple workstreams within a broader transformation programme, helping to ensure initiatives are clearly defined, well-structured, and delivered successfully.

Working closely with senior stakeholders, you'll bring clarity, coordination, and momentum to a fast-moving environment where priorities can shift and complexity is the norm.

What You'll Be Doing

Take ownership of several concurrent initiatives, ensuring progress stays on track and aligned to overall programme goals.

Provide clear, structured updates to senior stakeholders, highlighting progress, risks, and key decisions.

Shaping and Structuring Initiatives

Work with senior stakeholders to define scope, deliverables, timelines, and resource requirements.

Ensure all activity is aligned with governance processes and strategic priorities.

Connecting Teams and Maintaining Alignment

Collaborate with cross-functional teams to ensure everyone is working toward shared outcomes.

Act as a central point of coordination, helping to manage dependencies, remove blockers, and maintain momentum.

Managing Risk and Complexity

Identify risks and issues early, implement mitigation plans, and escalate where needed.

Bring a structured and proactive approach to handling change in a fast-paced environment.

Tracking Progress and Performance

Monitor delivery through KPIs and provide insight-driven updates to support decision-making and continuous improvement.

Supporting Broader Transformation

Contribute to identifying and implementing wider transformation opportunities, helping ensure long-term success as initiatives transition into business-as-usual.
