Overview
We’re seeking an experienced Programme Manager to lead the delivery of a large-scale, global video conferencing upgrade across 1,000+ rooms for a major financial institution. This role is ideal for someone who thrives in complex, high-compliance environments and has hands-on experience with collaboration technologies and cloud migration.
Project Scope
This is a multi-year programme to migrate all video conferencing infrastructure from on-premise systems to cloud-based services across global offices. The successful Programme Manager will oversee one of three major migration workstreams, working closely with client stakeholders, delivery partners, and internal teams.
Key Responsibilities
* Lead end-to-end programme delivery for video conferencing room upgrades and cloud migration
* Oversee site surveys, migration planning, and execution
* Collaborate with Real Estate, Security, IT, and third-party partner teams
* Manage cross-functional global workstreams using tools like Jira and Confluence
* Drive stakeholder engagement and maintain strong client relationships in a high-touch, compliance-driven environment
* Provide clear governance and reporting on progress, risk, and issue management
* Ensure alignment across partner organisations and internal delivery teams
Essential Experience
* Financial Services sector delivery experience (preferably with Tier 1 banks)
* Proven track record delivering video conferencing / collaboration technology programmes
* Hands-on experience with cloud migration from legacy systems
* Comfortable operating in large, matrixed, global environments
* Strong knowledge of collaboration tools and networking (e.g. Quadcam, AV systems, ticketing platforms)
Desirable Skills
* Experience with site implementation activities and working with installation partners
* Familiarity with compliance-heavy environments and governance processes
* Confident leading across multiple stakeholders, including clients, partners, and internal teams
* Excellent communication, problem-solving, and interpersonal skills
Additional Information
* Programme Managers will be aligned to one of three workstreams
* Onboarding includes both technical training and compliance vetting (including financial disclosure, due to regulatory policies)
* Certifications (PMP, ITIL, etc.) are a bonus but not essential – experience and delivery capability are key
Ideal Candidate Profile
A seasoned Programme Manager with experience leading complex tech transformation programmes in financial services. You’ll bring a deep understanding of collaboration technologies, strong stakeholder management skills, and the ability to navigate global, high-compliance environments with ease.
