* Engage confidently with senior stakeholders, managing ambiguity and driving alignment.
* Deliver projects using structured Agile approaches, managing ceremonies, governance, and stakeholder reporting.
* Work with on/offshore teams, manage cost base, and identify upsell/change‑control opportunities.

* Strong Agile delivery background and stakeholder engagement skills.
* Experience managing internal builds and enablement programmes.
* Comfortable working across Sales, Tech, and Strategy domains.
* Excellent communication, planning, and presentation skills.

* Establishing and operating governance structures within projects to ensure effective decision‑making and robust assurance.
* Managing project cost base and time tracking, identifying and delivering change‑control and project upsell.
* Stewarding Agile development processes, including planning sessions, scrums, and demos.

What We Can Do For You
