We have partnered with a huge conglomerate undergoing a large-scale transformation to hire a Head of PMO. This is a greenfield opportunity to establish the PMO function from the ground up and drive governance, reporting, and oversight across a portfolio of complex programmes.
This is not a delivery role - it's about creating structure, implementing controls, and providing the leadership team with full visibility and assurance over project execution.
About the role :
- Set up the central PMO function, including governance frameworks, reporting structures, and standards across all programmes
- Act as the central authority on programme controls, risk management, and project assurance
- Design and implement consistent reporting tools and templates to track delivery, risks, issues, and dependencies
- Provide senior stakeholders with actionable insights and ensure programmes remain aligned to strategic objectives
- Challenge delivery leads where needed and escalate appropriately to maintain accountability
