Location: London 3 days on-site

Duration: 6 months +

Join Our Client and help deliver one of the UK's most strategically important technology programmes-supporting the Emergency Services Network (ESN) with advanced voice, data services and critical communications for blue light teams. This is a new team in a digital transformation environment, with a clear focus on how data is managed, retained, archived and reported.

What you'll be doing:

• Deliver one or more ESN data outcomes across multiple workstreams and business areas
• Turn high-level objectives into delivery priorities, actionable plans and measurable success measures
• Keep the programme on track by identifying delivery gaps and driving timely interventions
• Bring together stakeholders across business and technical functions to create a single, coherent delivery approach
• Own and manage delivery plans, milestones, risks, issues, dependencies, decisions and change
• Lead governance and assurance activity-facilitating workshops, productive discussions and decision-making sessions
• Manage outcome-specific milestone readiness, including GNGs/countdown to launch activity
• Provide clear status reporting, driving escalation and decisions when action is needed

What you'll bring:

• A proven track record of leading complex projects or programmes in a large, multi-disciplinary organisation
• Strong stakeholder leadership-building trusted relationships with senior delivery teams and partner functions (including where applicable third parties)
• Confident delivery management: risks, issues, dependencies, decisions and progress reporting
• Experience bringing structure and clarity to multi-workstream coordination
• Security clearance to BPSS level

If you're energised by owning outcomes, driving momentum and improving how data is governed and delivered for mission-critical services, we'd love to hear from you.
