Hackajob is collaborating with AXA to connect them with exceptional tech professionals for this role.
Join AXA Health as a PMO Lead and help us deliver value to our customers through our new product-focused approach. You'll support our product teams within a specific Tribe or Value Stream, ensuring they stay aligned with our strategic goals. You'll oversee governance, reporting, and frameworks, making sure teams work efficiently and with clarity. Your insights will help us make better decisions and improve our ways of working.
You'll foster collaboration and continuous improvement, creating an environment where teams can innovate and adapt quickly. This is a great opportunity to help deliver strategic projects at scale, keeping AXA Health agile and customer-focused in a changing healthcare world.
At AXA we work smart, empowering our people to balance their time between home and the office in a way that works best for them, their team and our customers. You'll work at least two days a week (40%) away from home, moving to three days a week (60%) in the future. Away from home means either attendance at our Tunbridge Wells office, visiting clients or attending industry events. We're also happy to consider flexible working arrangements, which you can discuss with Talent Acquisition.
