Unique opportunity for an IT Programme Manager to join a healthcare organisation embarking on an exciting journey to transform their IT capabilities. As they prepare for a series of critical workstreams, we are seeking an IT Programme Manager to build and lead the project delivery function from the ground up. This is a unique opportunity to shape the future of IT within the organisation, defining best practices and implementing a project management framework that will drive digital transformation.

As the IT Programme Manager, you will take ownership of establishing a robust project delivery function within the organisation. You will be responsible for defining how to approach and deliver IT projects, setting up governance, processes, and frameworks that best suit the business needs. This is a greenfield role, giving you the freedom to design and implement the methodologies and systems from scratch, ensuring they align with the organisations goals for growth and improvement.

In this pivotal role, you will also build and manage a team of project managers as the function matures, ensuring the smooth delivery of multiple tech-driven projects across the organisation.

Responsibilities:

  • Build the IT Project Delivery Function: Establish the project management office (PMO) and set the strategic framework for delivering IT projects from the ground up.
  • Define Delivery Methods: Identify the best-fit methodologies (Agile, Waterfall, etc.) and frameworks for our organisation, ensuring they are scalable, effective, and align with our business needs.
  • Governance and Frameworks: Implement strong project governance, risk management, and control processes to ensure projects are delivered on time, within budget, and to a high standard.
  • Lead Transformation Projects: Oversee the planning, execution, and delivery of tech-driven transformation projects, ensuring they meet the organisation's goals.
  • Team Building: Recruit, manage, and mentor a team of project managers to support the growing portfolio of IT workstreams.
  • Stakeholder Engagement: Collaborate with senior leaders, department heads, and external vendors to ensure alignment between project goals and business objectives.
  • Continuous Improvement: Drive continuous improvement initiatives within the project delivery function to enhance efficiency and project outcomes.

About You

You are an experienced IT Programme Manager with a broad background in delivering tech-driven transformation projects, ideally in greenfield or rapidly changing environments. You are comfortable implementing governance and project management frameworks from scratch and have a deep understanding of Agile methodologies. Industry-specific experience is not required, but you should be a confident leader with strong communication skills and the ability to manage multiple stakeholders across the business.

Skills & Experience:

  • Proven experience in building and leading project delivery functions in a greenfield environment.
  • Expertise in managing large, complex IT transformation projects.
  • Strong understanding of project management methodologies (eg Agile, Waterfall) and the ability to implement the right approach for the organisation.
  • Ability to set up governance, processes, and frameworks to manage risk, timelines, and budgets effectively.
  • Excellent stakeholder management and communication skills.
  • Experience in recruiting and managing project management teams.
  • A proactive, self-starter mindset with the ability to work autonomously and drive change.

If this sounds like the role for you, please apply with an updated CV for consideration.
