Before you apply
Quick facts
£450-£525/day PAYE (inside IR35) (Negotiable for right candidate) | Regional PMO Lead | Slough | Hybrid (≈3 days on site) | 12‑month contract
Please be clear on the following non‑negotiables:
* You must have led a Regional PMO (not supported one)
* You must have carve‑out / divestment experience
* You must be able to explain the business impact of your PMO work (cost, speed, risk, ROI)
If this does not describe your background, we will not be able to progress your application.
The opportunity
This is a hands‑on Regional PMO Lead role within a newly created business following a carve‑out from a major FMCG organisation.
The environment is fast‑moving, under‑defined, and delivery‑focused. This is not a theoretical or framework‑led PMO. The role exists to create grip, clarity, and momentum across a regional change portfolio during a critical separation and stabilisation phase.
What you will actually be doing
* Owning regional PMO governance across multiple countries and workstreams
* Creating clear portfolio visibility and prioritisation
* Driving commercial outcomes (risk reduction, faster decision‑making, cost control)
* Challenging senior stakeholders when delivery is at risk
* Acting as a single point of accountability, not a reporting layer
This is not a PMO analyst, reporting, or assurance role.
Essential experience
* Proven experience leading a PMO at regional or enterprise level
* Carve‑out / divestment experience is essential
* Ability to articulate impact and outcomes, not just PMO activity
* Experience working at pace in FMCG, consumer, or similarly commercial environments
* Confident operating in ambiguous, changing organisations
Nice to have
* Exposure to private‑equity‑backed environments
* Experience stabilising organisations post‑separation
What this role is not
* Not a PMO analyst or coordinator role
* Not a purely IT or ERP PMO
* Not a low‑pressure, highly structured environment
Working pattern
Hybrid, with regular on‑site presence in Slough expected.
No sponsorship or relocation offered.
