What We’re Looking For

• Experience of working on Rectification & Remediation projects, with a strong understanding of the R&R lifecycle.
• Strong project management experience, with a track record of leading change from idea through to implementation.
• Strong planning, governance and financial management skills, with experience delivering against scope, cost, quality and timescales.
• Experience working within change lifecycles and supporting governance requirements.
• Experience working in Agile delivery environments, with a good understanding of Agile ways of working.
• Strong analytical, problem-solving and negotiation skills, with the confidence to make sound judgements in complex or challenging situations.
• Strong communication and influencing skills, with the ability to build effective working relationships across a range of colleagues and partners.
