This is an exciting opportunity to play a key role in strengthening the governance, control, and successful execution of a wide range of cyber and risk-related initiatives. The successful candidate will work closely with senior stakeholders, programme managers, and technical teams to ensure the portfolio is managed effectively and in alignment with internal frameworks and external regulatory expectations.

- Facilitate portfolio planning, tracking, and reporting activities to ensure transparency and alignment to strategic priorities
- Support the delivery life cycle by ensuring compliance with PMO standards and best practices
- Partner with Programme/Project Managers to provide challenge, oversight, and control of delivery progress
- Produce high-quality management information, dashboards, and board reporting packs
- Support resource and budget tracking in coordination with finance and HR teams
Experience/skills required:
- Extensive PMO experience, ideally in large, complex programmes or portfolios
- Strong RAID management skills, with proven ability to drive proactive mitigation and decision-making
- Deep knowledge of governance frameworks, control environments, and portfolio reporting
- Experience working in a regulated financial services environment (eg banking/insurance), with a clear understanding of audit and compliance expectations
- Familiarity with cyber security projects or portfolios
- Confident communicator, capable of engaging senior stakeholders and influencing across the organisation
- Proficient in tools such as PPM Pro, MS Project, PowerPoint, Excel, and project portfolio management systems.
