However, candidates should have a broad understanding of technology delivery environments and be comfortable working across both technical and non-technical stakeholder groups, translating complex delivery information into clear and actionable insight. Demonstrable IT PMO experience is essential for this role. Previous project management experience would be advantageous, but is not a mandatory requirement.

Stakeholder Engagement and Reporting * Act as a key point of contact for PMO activities, building trusted relationships with client stakeholders, delivery leads and internal teams. * Produce clear, concise and insight-led status reporting for senior stakeholders, steering committees and project / programme governance forums. * Translate complex delivery information into structured updates, options, impacts and recommendations to support decision-making. * Coordinate cross-functional teams across business, technology, operations and external delivery partners to maintain delivery momentum. * Proactively identify blockers, challenge timelines where appropriate and support teams in resolving delivery issues. Practice Contribution and Team Leadership * Coach and support junior consultants and PMO analysts, providing guidance on tools, templates, delivery standards and ways of working. * Allocate tasks effectively, provide oversight and help ensure outputs are delivered to a high standard. * Contribute to P3M propositions, reusable assets, delivery methodologies, templates and wider practice development initiatives. * Support proposals, bids and client presentations, bringing PMO and delivery management insight where relevant. * Identify opportunities to improve delivery approaches, reporting quality and team efficiency. Skills and Competencies * Strong understanding of project, programme and portfolio management methodologies, governance and controls. * Broad understanding of technology delivery and IT transformation environments, with the ability to build effective relationships and communicate across both technical and non-technical stakeholder groups. * Proven experience operating in PMO, project controls, programme coordination or delivery management roles within complex transformation environments. * Ability to develop and maintain high-quality plans, RAID logs, status reports, action trackers, governance packs and delivery dashboards. * Experience of demand management processes within technology delivery environments, with the ability to improve governance, reporting and controls across the end-to-end demand lifecycle, from request intake and prioritisation through to delivery planning and execution. * Strong stakeholder management and communication skills, with confidence engaging senior stakeholders and delivery leads. * Excellent planning, organisational and prioritisation skills, with the ability to manage multiple work packages and competing priorities. * Analytical mindset, structured problem-solving approach and ability to provide clear options, impacts and recommendations. * Experience coordinating across business, technology and third-party teams in fast-paced delivery environments. * Proficiency with delivery and collaboration tools such as MS Project, Planner, Jira, Azure DevOps, Confluence, SharePoint, Power BI, Excel and PowerPoint. * Awareness of emerging AI and automation technologies and their application within PMO, project delivery, reporting, governance and assurance activities. Experience using AI-enabled tools to improve delivery efficiency, insight generation or decision-making is advantageous. * Adaptable, proactive and resilient, with the ability to bring structure and clarity to ambiguous situations. * Commercial awareness and understanding of client priorities, business drivers and delivery constraints. * PM / P3M certifications such as PRINCE2, PMP, APM or MSP are advantageous but not mandatory. * This role may require UK security clearance. Candidates must either hold the appropriate level of clearance or be willing and able to successfully complete the security clearance process. * Previous consulting experience is advantageous. What We Are Looking For This role suits someone who is confident bringing structure to delivery, comfortable working with senior stakeholders and motivated to take increasing responsibility across client delivery, team leadership and practice development. You will be pragmatic, organised and outcome-focused, with the ability to balance detail with the bigger picture. Why Join BIP UK? * Be part of a global, innovative and collaborative team. * Work with industry leaders and help shape the future of consulting. * Gain hands-on experience across a range of client engagements and transformation environments. * Build your consulting, delivery and leadership skills in a growing practice. * Competitive compensation and benefits package. * Professional development and career growth opportunities. * A culture that values diversity, inclusion and employee wellbeing.
