About the Role
As the Programme Project Manager, you will play a pivotal role in the full lifecycle of an enterprise SaaS implementation, from initial planning through to operational delivery.

* Develop detailed project plans, defining scope, milestones, deliverables, and dependencies, while ensuring adaptability as the programme evolves.
* Facilitate regular cadence of meetings and checkpoints to monitor progress and resolve issues swiftly.
* Champion best practices in change management to ensure smooth adoption and minimal business disruption.
* Work in partnership with technical teams and external vendors to ensure seamless solution delivery and integration.
* Drive continuous improvement by identifying lessons learned and implementing process enhancements.
About You
* Proven experience as a Programme or Project Manager, ideally in large-scale SaaS or technology-enabled transformation projects.
* Demonstrable expertise in stakeholder engagement, with the ability to influence at all levels of the organisation.
* Strong planning and organisational skills, with a track record of delivering complex projects on time and within budget.
* Sound understanding of SaaS concepts, implementation processes, and change management.
* Exceptional communication skills - verbal, written, and visual - with the ability to present complex information clearly to business and technical audiences.
* Experience establishing and running project governance structures, reporting, and cadence meetings.
* Relevant project management certification (e.g., PMP, PRINCE2, Agile) is advantageous.
Why Join Us?
* Be at the forefront of digital transformation within a dynamic and supportive environment.
* Collaborate with passionate professionals and visionary leaders.
* Shape the future of our business and make a tangible impact on customer experience.
* Competitive remuneration and comprehensive benefits package.
* Opportunities for personal and professional growth.
