📍 Newport
💰 £60,000 - £80,000 + bonus + strong benefits
This is a senior, hands‑on PMO leadership role where you will take ownership of the IT PMO for a large, regulated infrastructure organisation. You'll play a central role in shaping how IT programmes and portfolios are governed, prioritised and delivered, ensuring senior leaders have confidence in delivery, controls and outcomes across a complex change landscape.
Key responsibilities include:
- Leading the IT PMO and setting clear standards for governance, reporting and assurance across the portfolio.
- Designing and embedding effective controls covering planning, risk, change and financial management.
- Producing clear, meaningful management information to support decision‑making at senior and executive level.
- Enabling portfolio prioritisation to ensure investment is focused on the highest‑value initiatives.
- Working closely with Programme Managers, Project Managers, business sponsors and third‑party suppliers within a predominantly outsourced delivery model.
- Acting as a trusted partner to senior stakeholders, providing constructive challenge and supporting delivery to time, cost and quality.
What You'll Bring:
You'll be an experienced IT PMO leader who has operated at scale and understands the importance of strong governance in complex or regulated environments.
We're looking for:
- Proven experience leading an IT PMO across multiple programmes or a sizeable portfolio.
- Background in utilities, energy, infrastructure or another highly regulated sector.
- Prince2 Practitioner (or equivalent) as a minimum, with MSP and ITIL highly desirable.
- Strong commercial and financial control experience across fixed‑price and T&M delivery models.
- Confidence working with senior stakeholders and external suppliers, with the ability to influence and challenge appropriately.
Why You Should Apply:
- A high‑impact role supporting large‑scale, business‑critical services.
- Genuine ownership and senior visibility, not a reporting‑only PMO.
- Competitive salary, excellent pension and a comprehensive benefits package.
- Hybrid and flexible working, with a culture focused on trust and delivery.
