Group Change Project Manager

Role Overview

• Lead the delivery of complex IT and business change projects, taking full ownership for driving progress, decision-making and delivery outcomes — not simply facilitating activity.
• Establish clear scope boundaries early, holding stakeholders accountable to agreed objectives, timelines and success measures.
• Navigate ambiguity by actively shaping delivery approaches where detail is unclear, proactively removing blockers and driving decisions to maintain momentum.
• Deliver projects to agreed timelines and budgets, escalating assertively when risks or resource constraints threaten delivery.
• Influence, challenge and guide senior stakeholders, ensuring commitments are met and decisions are made with pace and accountability.
• Run robust governance, ensuring deviations, risks and impacts are surfaced early with clear, evidence-based recommendations.
• Act as the authoritative point of coordination between technical teams, business leads, operations and external partners.
• Operate effectively in constrained or conflicting resource environments, securing support through influence, prioritisation and escalation when necessary.
• Anticipate risks, dependencies and inter-team impacts early, addressing them decisively to protect timelines and scope.
• Maintain rigorous financial oversight, ensuring forecasts, budgets and benefits remain aligned and transparent.
• Facilitate focused design and requirements sessions across IT and business teams, driving clarity on outcomes.
• Ensure capability, process and behavioural changes are fully understood, owned and embedded by business stakeholders.
• Lead structured transitions into BAU, ensuring smooth operational adoption.
• Drive lessons-learned activity with a focus on actionable improvements.

Requirements

• Minimum 5+ years delivering both IT and business change projects in complex, multi‑stakeholder environments.
• Demonstrable experience delivering under pressure, across ambiguous scopes, and within constrained resource environments.
• Proven ability to challenge, influence and hold senior stakeholders to account.
• Strong track record of delivering technical solutions and business change outcomes on time and within budget.
• Advanced communication skills.
• Strong risk, dependency and financial management capability.
• Expertise in Microsoft Project, Monday.com, Excel and willingness to learn other project management tools where necessary.
