This role owns the end-to-end delivery of initiatives that shape business processes, ways of working, and changes around enterprise platforms and operational activities, partnering closely with various teams and external partners.

Responsibilities

• Own end-to-end delivery of cross-functional projects, including scope, plans, milestones, dependencies, risks, assumptions, issues, and decisions.
• Establish and run effective project governance, including delivery cadences, status reporting, change control, clear ownership, and decision tracking.
• Coordinate delivery from initiation through go-live and stabilisation, covering planning, execution, testing, user acceptance, cutover, and hypercare.
• Partner with Business Analysts and subject matter experts to translate agreed requirements and process designs into executable delivery plans.
• Drive alignment across internal teams and third-party partners, resolving blockers, managing dependencies, and maintaining momentum against agreed outcomes.
• Define delivery milestones, acceptance criteria, and readiness checkpoints to support high-quality implementation and controlled release.
• Ensure change is landed effectively through communication planning, training coordination, operational readiness, and adoption tracking.
• Support post-go-live follow-through, including defect triage, prioritisation, lessons learned, and continuous improvement activity.
• Ensure changes are landed in a supportable way, with clear ownership, operating processes, documentation, and service expectations agreed with the relevant teams where appropriate.
• Work with stakeholders to ensure delivery plans appropriately consider access controls, security, auditability, and policy or compliance requirements.
• Manage vendor and partner deliverables where required, ensuring expectations, responsibilities, timelines, and dependencies are clearly understood.
• Produce clear project artefacts and updates that enable informed decision-making and transparent communication across stakeholders.

Requirements

• Proven experience delivering cross-functional business systems and operational change initiatives, including implementations, migrations, integrations, or significant process change.
• Strong project management fundamentals, including planning, dependency management, risk and issue management, governance, and stakeholder communication.
• Experience coordinating delivery across technical and non-technical teams through testing, go-live, and stabilisation.
• Ability to work effectively in a delivery model that includes Business Analysts or equivalent partners responsible for detailed requirements and process analysis.
• Strong written communication skills, with the ability to produce clear and effective plans, status updates, RAID logs, and decision records.
• Experience using modern delivery tools such as Jira and Confluence, or comparable platforms.
• Strong organisational skills, with the ability to manage competing priorities and keep delivery on track in a fast-moving environment.
• Strong collaboration and relationship-building skills, with the confidence to work across multiple functions and with external partners.
• Experience delivering change across enterprise domains such as Finance, People systems, IT service management, procurement, workplace systems, or identity and access management.
• Experience planning and coordinating data migration, cutover activity, and operational transition for enterprise systems.
• Familiarity with security and access control concepts, including role-based access, least privilege, and joiner, mover, leaver processes.
• Experience working in environments with policy, audit, or regulatory considerations.
• Experience working on multi-vendor delivery programmes, organisational integration initiatives, or large-scale business change.
