TECH-AGNOSTIC ROLE

Role Overview

The PMO Lead will play a critical role in a confidential, organisation-wide programme focused on the modernisation and redesign of the CIO / IT function. The programme is at a formative stage, with a clear strategic direction but key operating model decisions still to be made.

This role provides structure, governance, and delivery discipline across the programme, enabling senior leadership to make informed decisions while managing risk and ambiguity. Given constrained capacity across the business, the PMO Lead will also be hands-on in supporting delivery and drafting key programme outputs.

This is a full-time PMO Lead position, replacing a part-time PMO setup currently supported by a third-party consultancy.

Key Responsibilities

Programme Governance & Control

  • Establish and maintain programme governance frameworks, standards, and controls.
  • Coordinate and support governance forums including SteerCo, Advisory Panels, Executive and Board sessions, and weekly programme meetings.
  • Ensure compliance with organisational policies, audit requirements, and delivery standards.
  • Maintain decision logs, action trackers, RAID logs, assumptions, dependencies, and programme documentation.

Planning & Delivery Management

  • Develop and maintain an integrated programme plan, including milestones, dependencies, and critical paths.
  • Support Programme and Workstream Leads with planning, scheduling, and resource forecasting.
  • Track progress against plan, proactively identifying delivery risks or deviations.
  • Drive momentum in a programme that is not yet in a fast-paced delivery phase.

RAID & Risk Management

  • Own and actively manage the RAID framework.
  • Proactively identify, assess, escalate, and mitigate risks.
  • Provide clear recommendations and options to senior stakeholders, particularly when key decision-makers or SMEs are unavailable.

Reporting & Insights

  • Produce high-quality, concise reporting for senior stakeholders.
  • Consolidate status updates, financials, and RAID items into clear, actionable insights.
  • Enable leadership decision-making in an environment where multiple operating model options are under consideration, including outsourcing vs. in-house capability.

Delivery & Business Support

  • Provide hands-on delivery support where capacity is constrained, including drafting documents, packs, and first-cut deliverables.
  • Support the development of training strategies and principles, producing initial drafts for review.
  • Balance programme discipline with supporting the wider business through change.

Key Skills & Experience

Essential

  • Proven experience as a PMO Lead within IT or digital transformation programmes.
  • Strong experience in governance, RAID management, programme planning, and reporting.
  • Excellent organisational and analytical skills with the ability to synthesise complex information.
  • Strong stakeholder management skills, comfortable engaging with senior leaders and technical teams.
  • Experience operating effectively in ambiguous, evolving programmes.

Desirable

  • Experience across IT operating model transformation, including prior outsourcing initiatives (1st or 2nd generation).
  • Exposure to vendor and third-party delivery models.
  • Knowledge of Agile delivery, sprints, and iterative ways of working.
  • Familiarity with programme financial management.

Rullion celebrates and supports diversity and is committed to ensuring equal opportunities for both employees and applicants.
